Listen "The 1% Rule — Why Tiny Improvements Compound"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to Smarter in 10, I'm David Peterson from the DMP Education Group. Today, we're exploring a powerful yet deceptively simple idea known as the 1% Rule, popularized by James Clear in his best-selling book, "Atomic Habits."
The concept is straightforward yet profound: small, consistent improvements can lead to remarkable results over time. Imagine becoming just 1% better at something each day. Initially, it feels negligible—almost invisible. However, compounded over a year, these daily 1% improvements would leave you nearly 38 times better than when you started. Conversely, getting 1% worse daily has the opposite effect, spiraling you downward significantly.
