Many of us have grand aspirations. It is extremely common to hear people announcing that they’re going to start a new training program, that they’re going to write the next great novel, or that they’re going to improve their careers. The problem? They never get anywhere. Or at least, the vast majority of people don’t. We all know a couple of people who are highly successful in dating, fitness, business, and money. But they are rare. The rest of us make these promises to ourselves, and then we never keep them.
There are a million reasons for this. But there is one amazing solution: and it’s called Kaizen. What is Kaizen? Kaizen is a Japanese word meaning “improvement.” However, when you hear the word Kaizen it’s likely talking about the notion of making small changes in order to add up to a big impact. The idea is simple: that if you want to make massive changes in your life, you’re best off not trying to make them all in one go. Instead, you should commit to making tiny changes regularly, such that they add up to a massive change.
