who was so convinced that there was no way he could memorize anything, let alone 100 words, forward and backwards, and he got there in five weeks, not even 12 weeks.

So I think if you want to be ambitious and set high goals for yourself, you could.

Dhru Purohit Show

You could, you should read all the stuff I have in terms of making your full assessment.

For example, I recommend people do a fitness testing their VO2max to establish their fitness and try to improve their fitness.

Dhru Purohit Show

Ask people who your role model is.

Dhru Purohit Show

You need to have a role model and then use that person as the guide of where you wanna be.

And then I recommend a blood test panel of 20, 30 different things that will help to identify what are the issues.

Dhru Purohit Show

I recommend to do some kind of questionnaires to establish is it a memory problem, attention, concentration, processing speed, and do you have anxiety, OCD, fatigue, brain fog, to establish exactly what the issue is.
