You Should Try One-Percent
Looking for a simple way to improve yourself? One-Percent might be what you need. This straightforward self-improvement tool is built on three key principles: Growth Mindset, Compound Growth, and Effectiveness.
The Ideas Behind One-Percent
Growth Mindset
There are two different mindsets that shape how we approach personal development:
-
Fixed Mindset: This is the belief that your qualities are set in stone. You are who you are, and that’s that.
-
Growth Mindset: This is the understanding that you can change, learn, and develop through effort. You are not the same person as who you were and who you will be.
Compound Growth
Small improvements add up in surprising ways:
If you improve just 1% every day for a year, you’ll end up 37 times better than when you started. That’s impressive on its own.
But what happens if you maintain that 1% daily improvement for 5 years? The result is even more remarkable - you can grow 77 million times compared to where you began. That’s the power of compound growth.
Effectiveness Over Efficiency
Many tools focus on helping you do more things faster:
- Efficiency is about doing many things quickly
- Effectiveness is about doing the right things that help you reach your goals
One-Percent emphasizes effectiveness - helping you focus on what truly matters for your growth.
How One-Percent Works
One-Percent uses a simple three-part structure to help you organize your self-improvement efforts:
Journeys
Journeys are the big areas of life you want to improve. These could be your career, health, relationships, or any other important aspect of your life.
Each journey starts with 100 points, giving you a baseline to track your progress.
Chapters
Chapters break down your journeys into manageable segments. Think of them as short-term goals that help you make progress on your larger journey.
Quests
Quests are the daily actions that move you forward. They come in three types:
-
Main Quests: These are your priority tasks - the ones that drive your 1% daily improvement. It’s best to focus on just one or less than three main quests each day.
-
Side Quests: Optional activities you can tackle after completing your main quests.
-
Feedback: A simple way to reflect on your day and plan for tomorrow, helping you stay on track.
