the subtle lessons

The Slight Edge Was introduced to this concept recently. Will have to read Jeff Olson's The Slight Edge to find out more. Basically, the idea is that small simple actions that is done daily will compound over time and are the reasons behind becoming the elusive 5% (the successful population). These small simple actions done daily, gives the 5% of people, The Slight Edge, which over time, leads to a Hugh difference. The main reason why the 95% of us are still where we are, or not as successful as the 5%, is that these small simple actions, although simple to do, also tend to be simple NOT to do. Thus, over time, it becomes a Hugh difference, in the downward direction. Its a very interesting idea, and a great challenge. Set yourself a small simple action that you can do daily, and let's see how long you can keep to it! Leave a comment below to let us know about your progress!

Having lived 23 years of my life guided by my previous MINDSET, it is difficult to change completely over a few weeks or even months. To ensure that our MINDSET is constantly changing and evolving for the better, we have to make a mental note to IMPLEMENT and practice what we learn from the books. Repeat the process until the new MIN...
