I've read 250+ books.

Here are the 10 most important visuals I've come across:

(thread) 🧵

@JamesClear

1/

Once you've seen this visual, you'll never think of 1% as a tiny number ever again.

Although 1% is small, it compounds over time. 1% better every day for a year is not 5x or 10x better, it's 37x better.

Small changes can lead to huge results.

(Atomic Habits - @JamesClear)

@RichardKoch8020

2/

Every area of life is ruled by the 80/20 principle.

80% of your results come from 20% of your effort.

Ex: 80% of your revenue comes from 20% of your customers.

Find the source of the 20% and focus on that to become more productive.
