9.6 Minutes To A Better You

Can you spare 9.6 minutes a day, 9.6 minutes that will improve your life by up to 37% a year if you stick with it?

I was reading an article by Bradley Hook on Entrepreneur titled “Improving yourself only takes 9.6 minutes of work a day” and it claims that if I spend under 10 minutes a day working on myself, each day I’ll become 1% better.

The article is based around the book “Atomic Habits” (Amazon affiliate link*) by James Clear. In the book Clear talks about the power of “small”, how a seemingly tiny change can have a massive impact.

To that end, Clear suggests that in order to achieve something you don’t have to make a massive change, just a small one that you work on day-to-day.

Hook takes this a little further and breaks down what that 1% change actually looks like – and it’s 9.6 minutes a day according to his maths (regular readers will know I can’t do maths so I’m not going to try and verify his results!)

Hook gives some examples of what you could do with that 9.6 minutes such as have a stretch, writing 3 good things down in a gratitude journal or going for a quick walk.

When you think of it, 9.6 minutes is really nothing is it? You could fit in multiple micro-tasks into that time and within a year you could see exponential improvement and growth.
