If we were given the choice to become better than we are now or stay the same, everyone would naturally choose to be better. Self-improvement gives us a reason to wake up energetic and excited in the morning. It provides us with goals and challenges to overcome so that we can reach our maximum potential.

Often, we have a hard time knowing where to begin. We set massive goals but we don't make achievable steps to attain those great heights we seek. 

The best advice I've seen for continuous growth is the aim to get 1% better every day. Give yourself permission to make small steps and eventually, you'll see massive gains over time. As James Altucher says,"When 1% compounds every day, it doubles every 72 days, not every 100 days".

If we set goals that are too large our minds naturally want to stop because the mind can't see an achievable way to tackle the challenge. Get 1% better every day​ and those massive goals will be attained before you know it.

Focus on the 1%. Every. Day.
