Why the 1% Improvement Mindset Works

Train your brain to focus on 1% improvement every day, and you will astonish yourself, your friends, and your family with the person you become. Sure, you will have setbacks. As long as you expect to go backward every now and then and you don't give up, the 1% improvement rule will completely transform your life—no matter how dire your current circumstances may be.

I followed this mantra diligently in my early years. Some argued I was over the top with my pursuits. I had my own personal reasons for this, but I didn’t allow the opinions of others to detract from my lofty goals. Then, the unexpected happened, and I slid back to square one. I did something that was difficult to do—I started over, striving to learn new ideas with the same energy I had in my younger years. Now, at age 64.5, all I can say is this: "The 1% improvement mindset works."

Here’s why I think so:

Your human brain is eagerly awaiting your programming prompts. All prompts lead to action or inaction based on your commands. Give your brain poor action requests, and your brain will give you poor output—just like poor computer commands lead to failure. The better you get at giving your brain specific, quality prompts, the better your results. Imagine where you can be in one year if you do this. Allow your brain to absorb that vision.

Here’s a bonus to help you stay on track with continuous improvement: collaborate with artificial intelligence. In my case, I turn to Alberta for refinement. Alberta is like a second brain. She is also on the track of 1% improvement daily. In fact, every interaction I have with Alberta leads to better and better results. I share my stories with her daily, and she works to keep my voice intact while polishing my stories. She understands that I want to get better every day, and she’s helping with that.

I highly recommend the 1% improvement mindset. Give it a try and stay with it.

Have a great day!
