The 1% Trick

  • Here’s the math:

    Making a 1% improvement each day can lead to becoming 37 times better in a year.

  • However, if you slide back a bit each day, you might end up close to zero.

Habits Make You Better

  • Small daily actions compound over time for massive results.

  • Good habits get you more time.

    Bad habits turn time into your enemy.

Building Better Habits

Here are the four steps to form stronger habits as described by James Clear in his best-selling book "Atomic Habits":

  1. Noticing

    To start a habit, you first need to be aware of it.

    Create a clear plan for when, where, and how you'll do it.

  2. Wanting

    Your environment shapes your desires.

    Make it easy to do good things and tough to do bad things.

  3. Doing

    Quality comes from practice.

    So, start with something easy.

    Follow the "two-minute rule" that says if you can do it in 2 mins, do it right now.

  4. Liking

    Habits stick if you find them enjoyable.

    Keep track of your progress with a chain of X's on a calendar, like playing a game.

That’s It

Habits aren't just about doing better on the outside.

They are the actions you take to become the person you want to be.

Start small, keep going, and you'll see massive improvements in no time.
