1% Better Every Day

How do you go about making a positive change in your life?

Is it something you do overnight?

Hopefully, the answer will be a resounding "no!"

It takes time, dedication, and work to change even a single aspect of your life. Humans are creatures of habit, and once those habits have become deeply embedded in our minds, they are difficult to break. This is a real-life occurrence that can be observed within the brain. This is something we'll discuss later in the book.

Even though many of us intuitively understand all of this, we continue to believe that we can make drastic changes to our lives on a whim. You're guilty if you've ever promised yourself that you'll "start a new training regimen tomorrow" that includes going to the gym four times a week and consuming half your current caloric consumption.

There is an alternative. It's known as Kaizen. This is the Sino-Japanese word meaning "improvement," and it has come to denote a particular method of improvement. One in which you make small adjustments and take small moves toward the goal you're pursuing.

Even the longest trip begins with a single step, as the adage says.

What, after all, is a thousand-mile trek if not a series of single steps? When you approach problems in this light, anything becomes possible.

This book will teach you how to wring every last drop of value out of this notion. Whether you want to enhance your relationships, your fitness, your health, your business, or anything else, Kaizen will help you get there.

Prepare to make a positive difference in your life. Let's begin with a single step.
