What if genius isn't something you're born with—it's something you build?
Everyday Genius, by six-time USA Memory Champion Nelson Dellis, upgrades your everyday life through practical skills, whether it's memorizing names at a new job, doing lightning-fast mental math when it counts, honing decisive intuition, and beyond.
Written by Remember It! author Nelson Dellis and with a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Barbara Oakley, Everyday Genius teaches you the skills that make genius-level thinking accessible to anyone. Better memory. Sharper focus. Faster learning. Creative problem-solving. No natural talent required, just the right methods.
In 2009, after watching his grandmother struggle with Alzheimer's, Nelson Dellis set out to strengthen his own mind. That mission led to six USA Memory Championships, two Guinness World Records, and a career dedicated to proving that anyone can develop genius-level cognitive abilities.
Everyday Genius teaches you to memorize names and faces instantly, speed-read with deep comprehension, calculate mentally with surprising accuracy, and focus intensely when it matters most. You'll learn strategies for chess and strategic games, techniques for acing exams and public speaking, and methods for creative problem-solving that help you see connections others miss.
From mastering a Rubik's Cube to holding complex ideas in your head, from reading a room to thinking on your feet—this book gives you the mental toolkit for a sharper, more engaged life. At a time when outsourcing our thinking has never been easier, Everyday Genius shows you how to reclaim and strengthen your most valuable asset: your brain.
You have far more potential than you realize—an inner genius waiting to be awakened. This book unlocks it.
Dellis breaks down complex mnemonic systems into digestible, actionable strategies. By following his lead, you will learn:
- Memory Mastery
- Speed Reading
- Focus and Concentration
- Learning Mastery
- Mental Calculation
- Problem-Solving and Creativity
- Strategic Thinking
- Social Skills Mastery
- Beyond Genius
