This book is so much better than the cover and title might lead you to believe.
There are no bold claims to transform your life, as with some self-improvement books and no hyperbole. You get solid, simple, easy to adopt tips and ideas, supported by scientific study, to help you make a number of small differences to your attitude and behaviour.
Put them all together and they could make quite a change to your life.
There’s a wealth of easy to follow tips and guidance to help you with stress, diet, decision making, goal-setting and creativity. You pick and choose which you adopt or ignore – the choice is yours. At the end of each chapter, there’s a summary to help you remember.
The down-to-earth advice, case studies and tips all made perfect sense. None of them involved massive changes in behaviour because the book’s about make small, cumulative gains.
If you want to make some small, but significant improvements to your life and the way you behave, I can’t recommend this book enough. I’m off to read it again.

10% Better Every Day by Dr. Rob Yeung is a refreshing and practical guide for anyone looking to improve their life through small, incremental changes. Dr. Yeung, a psychologist and performance coach, skillfully combines research with real-life examples to show how tiny improvements can lead to significant, long-term gains.
Here are some key insights from the book:
The Power of Small Changes: Incremental improvements, even as little as 10%, can lead to significant and lasting results over time. Small, consistent efforts accumulate and create substantial progress.
Consistency Over Intensity: It's better to make small, manageable changes consistently rather than attempting drastic overhauls that are difficult to maintain. Sustainable improvement is key.
Mindset Matters: Developing a growth mindset is crucial. Believing in your ability to improve and grow can motivate you to keep striving for betterment, even when progress seems slow.
Goal Setting and Planning: Breaking down large goals into smaller, achievable tasks helps maintain momentum and prevents feeling overwhelmed. Clear, specific goals provide direction and focus.
Habit Formation: Building positive habits through repetition and consistency can create a solid foundation for long-term success. Techniques like habit stacking can help integrate new habits into your daily routine.
Mindfulness and Stress Management: Practicing mindfulness and effective stress management techniques can improve mental clarity, focus, and overall well-being, making it easier to achieve your goals.
Importance of Physical Health: Maintaining good physical health through regular exercise, proper nutrition, and adequate sleep is essential for sustaining high energy levels and mental clarity.
Self-Reflection and Feedback: Regularly reflecting on your progress and seeking feedback from others can help identify areas for improvement and provide valuable insights.
Continuous Learning: Committing to ongoing learning and personal development keeps you adaptable and intellectually engaged. Embracing new knowledge and experiences fosters growth.
Resilience and Adaptability: Building resilience and being adaptable to change are important for navigating challenges and setbacks. Persistence and flexibility are key to continuous improvement.
The book emphasizes that meaningful, lasting change is achievable through small, consistent efforts. By focusing on incremental improvements and maintaining a positive, growth-oriented mindset, you can make significant strides toward your goals.
