Are you tired of tracking habits but never seeing results? Welcome to Compounding Habits. You may not see results in 1 week, or even 1 month. But the math guarantees you'll see an upgraded version of yourself in 3 months β and a transformed one in a year. THE 1% BETTER THEORY On Day 0, you are the baseline: 1. On Day 1, you show up and become 1.01. On Day 2, you improve again β not 1% of your original self, but 1% of your Day 1 self. Show up for n days in a row and you become (1.01)βΏ. In other words: β’ In 1 week β (1.01)β· = 7% better β’ In 1 month β (1.01)Β³β° = 35% better β’ In 3 months β (1.01)βΉβ° = 144% better (1.4Γ) β’ In 1 year β (1.01)Β³βΆβ΅ = 3,678% better (36.78Γ) HOW IT WORKS Simply showing up for a habit counts as 1% better. You don't need a perfect 5-mile run or 3 hours of study. No matter the amount β if you show up, you have grown 1%. Each skip costs you 1% in the other direction.
