“One Percent Better” Challenge!

If you’ve ever read the Slight Edge, you know about this general idea.

Starting December 1st, we are all (yes, that means you, and me, and everyone else who wants to join!) going to do something small that will make our lives 1 percent better every day!

Not sure what this looks like?

Here’s a few examples:

Eat a strawberry along with your cookie

Read one page of a book

Drink two more sips of water

Write one line in your journal

Delete one email

Put your clothes out for the next day

March in place for 5 seconds every time you use the bathroom

Put away one thing that’s near you

Look up the meaning to one word

Text one friend

Drink tea instead of soda for one meal

You get the idea.

BUT!

Don’t go “typical” if you possibly can. Think outside the box. Come up with something super random every day to make your life a TINY bit better! Just 1%. Google it. Ask AI to give you ideas. Ask friends. I don’t care how you do it hehe!

Just post about it and tell us about your adventures! Tag someone, who you think might enjoy this challenge <3

December is OUR month. Let’s CRUSH it! <3

@jesusredeemedme2425 ❤️❤️

@jesusredeemedme2425 my initial thought was rejection because sometimes we literally cannot do anything. But these examples were so small even we could do this when ‘paralyzed’, we could clear our inbox or do something. Drink a glass of water or something. Good idea Thankyou. I’m not sure if I can officially sign up I feel overwhelmed already with the other challenge but. I might try it

You can literally make “getting out of bed when I feel like staying there all day” one of your wins <3

@jesusredeemedme2425 that’s true that is a win, just keeping track is. A thing. I’m sorry, but without keeping track of this I can still do it with keeping the thought “let’s do small wins as much as possible” in our head. I hope u have fun with this challenge

No no, you don’t have to share! You can just make it a personal goal. Just something tiny each day <3 Like today I tried a new sandwich at the coffee shop. I’m very set in my ways, and it got me out of my rut. And it was SO GOOD! It was egg, ham, and cheese on a toasted bagel <3

@jesusredeemedme2425 it’s very relatable to get the same thing always at a restaurant or diner! That’s a nice win you got, you can try new little things and find your next fave
