'Time To Think outlines a powerful process of unlocking the knowledge
and wisdom within the recesses of our minds. If your brain is the
ultimate computer, Time To Think is like adding three times the RAM
you're currently using. Every time I've used it or watched the process
in action, I've witnessed great increases in thought clarity in even the
brightest people.'
