How to Increase Anything by 3,800% In One Year

How to Increase Anything by 3,800% In One Year

An Indian Proverb states: You Can't Stop Running Water. 

I've been sitting on this one for a while.  I love the fluidity of it.  Water can trickle or water can roar.  But it never stops.  We're like 70% water.  We're literally fluid.  We never stop.  One of my favorite podcasts is by James Altucher.  He has what's called the 1% rule.  If you improve upon something by 1% each day, in a year you will have improved 3,800%.  That's crazy.  It works for anything - exercise, savings, reading, meditating.  

But what about being kind to yourself?  Be just 1% more kind to yourself every day for a year and by the end of the year you may struggle to think of the last time you said a word of negative self talk.  

Or maybe you apply the 1% rule to focusing on what really defines success in your life beyond your paycheck.  Those last two are pulled directly from my own script.  Daily focus: Be kind to myself.  What really defines success in my life?  These two things literally take minute-by-minute intention.  

What can you do just 1% more or better each day?  Laugh a little more?  Make eye contact with strangers just 1% more?  Breathe deep and feel the air enter and leave your lungs a bit more each day?  

Love your comments on this one.  I'll support you in your goals.   We got this.
