Get Just 1% Better | Crush It Mondays

Welcome to Crush It Mondays.  Each week, I’ll bring to you an inspiring message, habit, or contemplation in 5 minutes or less to get your week off to a powerful start.

It's easy to get overwhelmed with all the things you feel like you should be doing.  How many times have you skipped working towards a goal altogether because riding for an hour, writing an entire article, doing 10 minutes of meditation, or going to the gym seemed like too much?

I am obsessed with the idea of Kaizen or continuous improvement.  It's not about being perfect, it's about getting better. So what if you committed to doing just 1% more every day?  For example, if you don't have time to ride your bike for an hour, do 20 minutes.  If you don't want to meditate, take just 5 deep breaths with your eyes closed.  If you don't want to go to the gym, commit to 5 push-ups today.

Even small steps forward compound into bigger gains. So how can you get 1% better this week?
