Description

The Slight Edge is a way of thinking that enables you to make small, consistent choices that will lead you to the success and happiness you desire. 

Learn why some people are able to follow through on their dreams and make them come true, while others just continue dreaming and spend their lives building dreams for other people. It's not just another self-help book filled with methods you must learn in order to travel the path to success.

 It shows you how to create powerful results from simple daily activities by using tools that are already within you. In this 10th anniversary edition, you'll read not only the life-changing concepts of the original book but also what author Jeff Olson discovered as he continued along his path: how to be happy and how the Ripple Effect works.

The Power of Small Actions

Jeff Olson emphasizes that small, consistent actions can lead to massive results over time. It's not about making huge leaps, but rather taking small steps consistently that will lead you to your goals. So, don't underestimate the power of small actions, start today and keep going!

The Importance of Daily Habits

The Slight Edge is all about the power of daily habits. Olson suggests that our daily habits, no matter how small, can shape our destiny. So, take a look at your daily habits, are they leading you towards your goals or away from them?

The Compound Effect

The book explores the concept of the compound effect. Just like compound interest in finance, small, consistent actions can compound over time leading to significant results. So, don't be discouraged if you don't see immediate results, keep going and you'll see the magic of the compound effect.

The Choice is Yours

Olson stresses that we have the power to choose our actions. Every day, we make choices that can either push us towards our goals or pull us away from them. So, remember, the choice is always yours. Choose wisely!

The Philosophy of Success

The Slight Edge isn't just a book, it's a philosophy of success. It's about understanding that success isn't a one-time event, but a process. So, if you're ready to dig deeper into the process of success, this book is a must-read.
