The best way for me to describe it is a cummulation of events. It can affect all areas of our life.

Some Examples:

• The first cigarette will probably not affect your breathing long term, two packs a day for 20 years will.

• Doing the right thing today will not help your reputation, doing the right thing every time will make your reputation impeccable.
• Saving 10% of what you earn will not make an 18 year old wealthy. Doing it for 30 years and you will never be in a financial bind.
• Expressing your love for your mate randomly will get smiles. Meaning it in action and words grants you a soul mate.
• Becoming 1% more effective in your work each week does little in the interim, by the end of the year you have improved by 52%!!

This list could go forever. Identifying areas of your life to improve on and applying the Slight Edge is only something you can do, but it is an easy principal to apply.

Is your home cluttered?

Make a pact with yourself to get rid of 10 items a week for a year. It can be anything give old clothes away, throw out that tattered couch pillow, recycle that stack of magazines. Start Small Eventually you will make the tough decisions as you become clutter free. The Slight Edge will have you squeaky clean.

Need retirement savings and you are middle aged?

Start Saving 10% of your earnings today. You may not become a millionaire but it will provide some security.

There are so many ways you can apply the Slight Edge to enrich your life and the lives of other. Now that you have a grasp of the Slight Edge do something about it.
