The Art of Impossible

A Peak Performance Primer

About this book

New York Times Bestseller

Bestselling author and peak performance expert Steven Kotler decodes the secrets of those elite performers—athletes, artists, scientists, CEOs and more—who have changed our definition of the possible, offering a blueprint based on neuroscience to teach us how we too can stretch far beyond our capabilities, making impossible dreams much more attainable for all of us.


What does it take to accomplish the impossible? What does it take to shatter our limitations, exceed our expectations, and turn our biggest dreams into our most recent achievements? 

We are capable of so much more than we know—that’s the message at the core of The Art of Impossible. Building upon cutting-edge neuroscience and over twenty years of research, this guide to high achievement lays out a blueprint for extreme performance improvement. If you want to aim high, this guide to unlocking your potential is the playbook to make it happen!

Inspirational and aspirational, pragmatic and accessible, The Art of Impossible is a life-changing experience disguised as a how-to manual for peak performance that anyone can use to shoot for the stars . . . space-suit, not included. 

  • A Blueprint for Motivation: Go beyond simple willpower with a proven recipe to find your passion, purpose, and the grit needed for relentless persistence.
  • The Science of Accelerated Learning: Master essential skills faster by understanding the neurobiology of learning and applying frameworks used by the world's top performers.
  • Hacking Creativity and Flow: Learn how to generate breakthrough ideas on demand and decode the four-stage cycle of flow—the state of optimal consciousness where you feel and perform your best.
  • The Habit of Ferocity: Develop the mindset of elite performers to automatically rise to any challenge and turn impossible dreams into concrete achievements.
