Kam Knight is a coach, writer, and author of several bestselling books in the area of mental performance such as memory, concentration, and productivity. Growing up, he had tremendous difficulty focusing, sitting still, and keeping his mind on his thoughts and his thoughts on his mind. His mind and emotions raced and flew all over the place in quick, intense, and uncontrolled succession. This kept me from performing well in school and affected every area of his personal, professional, and academic life.

Over the past 15 years, Kam has dedicated his life to understanding, exploring, and managing this mayhem. In his quest, he has left ‘no stone unturned,’ willing to go anywhere and try anything, including working with shamans in jungles of Amazon, experimenting with innovative plants in Africa, visiting ashrams in Asia, and everything in between.

This has given him insight into the mind and human condition that is unparalleled – what’s going on inside and how different drives and mechanisms affect our thoughts, actions, and decisions. Kam Knight’s writing, books, and courses are a distillation of what he’s learned on this incredible journey.
