“There are two kinds of habits: those that serve you, and those that don’t.”
Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness

“Instead of writing down what you’re going to do (chances are you’ve been doing that your whole adult life anyway, and it doesn’t make you any better at doing them), write down at the end of the day what you did do that day.”
Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness

“You try hard, but you don't succeed.. So you try harder, and harder... But you still just don't succeed, you give it a try once more; only realising its never going to work out the way you want it to. But then again, you remember; you've tried so much. You've tried to please, you've tried to love and you've tried to care. You think to yourself, "Why should I keep on going?" You try so hard, what's the point.. No one accepts you for who you are, no one sees you for who you are, no one takes the time to ask how you feel, no one takes the time to bother.. But then there's you... You try, and try. And you just give up hope, because its just so much easier!”
Liam McGrath

“The journey starts with a single step—not with thinking about taking a step.”
Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness

“Any time you see what looks like a breakthrough, it is always the end result of a long series of little things, done consistently over time.”
Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness
