The Art of Impossible

A Peak Performance Primer

By: Steven Kotler

Narrated by: Fred Sanders

Bestselling author and peak performance expert Steven Kotler decodes the secrets of those elite performers—athletes, artists, scientists, CEOs and more—who have changed our definition of the possible, teaching us how we too can stretch far beyond our capabilities, making impossible dreams much more attainable for all of us.

What does it take to accomplish the impossible? What does it take to shatter our limitations, exceed our expectations, and turn our biggest dreams into our most recent achievements?

We are capable of so much more than we know—that’s the message at the core of The Art of Impossible. Building upon cutting-edge neuroscience and over twenty years of research, bestselling author, peak performance expert and Executive Director of the Flow Research Collective, Steven Kotler lays out a blueprint for extreme performance improvement. If you want to aim high, here is the playbook to make it happen!

Inspirational and aspirational, pragmatic and accessible, The Art of Impossible is a life-changing experience disguised as a how-to manual for peak performance that anyone can use to shoot for the stars . . . space-suit, not included.

One of the best books I have read on peak performance!

Loved every bit of the book and examples quoted along the way. Some are reminders from other books I have read in the past but loved the deeper explanation here. Thank you Steve!

this is a book I will listen to multiple times

loved the subject matter and writing style. the narrator is pretty good over all (very polished and professional) but he is a tad in the dry side. either way, I highly recommend this audio book

Excellent book for anyone looking to take their life to the next level and get into flow and stay there.

There is a lot to take absorb in this book. I will reread it and take notes as well as go back to it periodically to reinforce what I have learned and hold myself accountable for taking action on the skills and techniques I have learned

Steve is on message with his evaluation of peak performance.

Very few books possess diamonds of actionable knowledge. Steve has created a factory of diamond mines to mass produce your personal growth towards your best self. This book will make any performer on any level better than they were if they APPLY the lessons.

Just what my vegan megalomaniac mind needed to hear!!!

Dense with information, I was driving up the I-5 in California and was amazed by all the synchronicities playing out in my life, I would fall into my own thoughts loosing what was being spoken which means I’ll need to listen to it again. I really needed this!
