As humans, we naturally avoid change. But change is crucial to growing and improving, both as a leader and in all aspects of life.

Too often, we think change requires a massive overhaul of our skills and actions. But change doesn’t have to be hard. Small, consistent changes can lead to major improvements over time.

I call it the 1% a day challenge. If you simply improve 1% a day, by the end of the year you will be 37x better.

I put together a video which talks about this in more detail. Please check it out below and if you want more content like this?you can subscribe to my Youtube channel .

All it takes is small actions to become 1% better every day, which leads to big changes over time. This applies to everything, not just leadership.

Improving as a leader by 1% a day doesn’t mean uprooting everything and starting fresh. It requires smaller changes, including things like:

• Putting yourself in someone else’s shoes
• Recognizing an employee for their hard work
• Spending time with someone different than you
• Reaching out to customers or employees in a different area of the company
• Having a conversation and practicing active listening instead of just hearing
• Putting your phone aside to be present as you talk with others
• Admitting you don’t know something and being humble to learn

Many of these actions only take 10 minutes a day. These improvements may seem small, but over time they can lead to big changes and make you a 37x better leader in a year.
