Simple and useful theory on harnessing the generally unconscious power of the slight edge. Excellent insight into the importance of little, everyday actions and how they gradually compound into much larger changes (good or bad) in your life.

Some quotes and ideas from the book:

-success not lead to happiness,it’s the opposite
-every decision is slight edge decision
-show up consistently with positive outlook
-your ship’s not coming ,it’s already here
-you have to start with plan,but the plan you start with will not be the plan that get you here
-mastery began the moment you step onto the path,failure began the moment you step off the path
-Shawn Achor's five happy habits:
1-Each morning write down three new things you're grateful for.
2-Journal for two minutes a day about a-positive experience from the past 24 hours.
3-Meditate daily for a few minutes.
4-At the start of each day, write an email to someone praising or thanking them.
5-Get fifteen minutes of simple cardio exercise a day.
-Jim Rohn: The simple things that lead to success are all easy to do. But they're also just as easy not to do.
-Your philosophy is your view of life, something beyond feelings and attitudes. Your philosophy drives your attitudes and feelings, which drive your actions

Libro sencillo de leer, centrado en poder del interés compuesto en nuestras acciones del día a día. La línea entre hacer lo que debiéramos o no es muy fina, en ocasiones el valor del esfuerzo diario queda menospreciado y es en las situaciones más complejas en las que se se desarrolla la constancia más esencial.

Los valores más destacados son: hacer ejercicio todos los días, leer al menos 10 páginas de un libro para el desarrollo personal, mostrar afecto por tus seres queridos, síntesis del ahorro...

While the concept of The Slight Edge idea is very useful and vital to creating your own success, I found that many of the chapters were redundant. The main points of this book could have been condensed into about five or six Chapters instead of thirteen. All together though, an interesting book.

Read this book for work actually. Thought it had some good quotes but the topic did not need to be an entire novel.

I did not like this book at all. At times, I found the author's tone condescending and arrogant, which was off-putting. In addition to this, the book itself is repetitive (to the point that it sounds like some sort of advertising campaign, with every other line seeming to include the words 'the slight edge'!) and rich with cliché.
I feel that this book merely confirms all the negative stereotypes surrounding the self-help/personal development genre. Basically, not only would I not recommend this book, I would actively try to dissuade people from wasting their time with it.

Before reading this book, I read "The Compound Effect" by Darren Hardy. Actually, the philosophy of both the books is identical. "The Slight Edge" gives you an idea how we can accomplish any task or how we can build new habits. The idea which gravitates me more is "Always take baby steps when you start anything new, and do not break the consistency."
