The Surprising power of atomic habits

“If you can get 1 percent better each day You will end up 37 times better by the time you’re done, if you get worst 1% every single day end up reaching nearly 0"

  • Small habits compound over time, and they are barely visible at the beginning. Only after time they build into a powerful system.

1.Design a system that will get you to where you want to be :Goals are good to set direction. The system is what will get you there.

2.Make the system motivate you and give you happiness :The feeling you get when you achieve a goal is only momentary. focus on the system instead, you will enjoy entire process.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Jamyson Haug
