How to Get 1% Better Every Day and Change Your Future

How many of you want to level up your life? Let’s start with a round of applause for yourselves—because recognizing the need for change is the first step!

Here’s some great news: you don’t need to make drastic changes overnight. All it takes is small, consistent 1% improvements every day. Over time, these tiny efforts compound into something extraordinary. So, are you ready to commit to your 1% today? Let me hear you say it—louder!

Here are 10 powerful habits that can transform your life, one small step at a time:

1. Choose Your Company Wisely

You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. If you surround yourself with people who focus on negativity or avoid growth, you'll find yourself heading down the same path.

Choose friends who motivate and uplift you, and who will help you stay focused on your goals.

2. Networking the Right Way

We all know the saying, “Your network is your net worth,” but it’s important to network with purpose. Are you on LinkedIn? If not, it’s time to start. LinkedIn isn’t just for professionals; it’s a powerful tool for students to connect with opportunities, mentors, and potential employers.

3. Make Reading a Habit

Want to level up your brain? Start reading! Warren Buffet spends 80% of his day reading. Bill Gates reads 50 books a year, and Elon Musk read 10+ hours a day as a child. Make reading a consistent habit and watch how it sharpens your mind and opens doors to new opportunities.

Start small—read just 20 minutes a day, and gradually increase.

4. Be ‘Hard to Reach’

Ever found yourself giving away your time to distractions? That friend who calls you every Friday night when you’re trying to study? Learn to say no. Your time is valuable, and by being "hard to reach" during important tasks, you take back control of your focus and energy.

It’s okay to be unavailable for the right reasons.

5. Set Deadlines for Yourself

Deadlines aren’t just for school projects—they’re essential for your personal growth too. Promise yourself you’ll finish something by a certain time, whether it’s a chapter in a book or a career-related task.

Holding yourself accountable will push you to stay consistent and productive.

6. Stop Mindless Scrolling

Instagram and other social media platforms can suck away your time. If you’re not earning from them, why waste time scrolling? Every minute spent mindlessly on Instagram is a minute you could be learning or working towards your goals.

Focus on what truly adds value to your life and don’t get caught up in distractions.

7. Create a Solid Morning Routine

Your morning sets the tone for the day. Start your day with a routine that includes silence, affirmations, exercise, reading, and journaling (S.A.V.E.R.S.). This powerful method from The Miracle Morning book can help you kickstart your day with energy, clarity, and purpose.

8. Understand Your Chronotype

Your energy levels fluctuate throughout the day. Identify when you're most alert and productive, and schedule your most important tasks during those peak hours.

Reserve tasks that require less energy, like organizing or answering emails, for when your energy is lower.

9. Reflection: Stop, Start, Continue

Take time to reflect on your life and habits. What should you stop doing? What should you start doing? And what should you continue doing? Reflection helps you understand your strengths and weaknesses, enabling you to grow and adjust your actions.

10. Form Good Habits

Good habits make life easier by allowing your subconscious mind to take over. Whether it’s reading, exercising, or sticking to a morning routine, the key is consistency.

Commit to developing one habit at a time, and soon it will become a part of your daily life.

Remember, the key to leveling up your life isn’t about making big leaps—it's about making small, consistent improvements every single day. The 1% changes add up, and over time, you’ll find yourself in a place you never thought possible. Stay committed, keep growing, and don't forget to surround yourself with people who push you forward!

Here’s to the next 1% improvement!

Let’s do this together.
