He'd created products and helped other companies to do the same. So yeah... I was impressed. But as I dug into his story I found out that one of the secrets behind his success was how he had trained himself to read faster and remember more. (Plus, I found out he was teaching other people how to do that too!) So I just had to interview him... because we can all dream bigger and think better... if we're able to remember more!
