master the small choices that create massive, lasting results
About This Book
Success isn’t a lottery ticket, it’s a math problem. Build tiny, repeatable choices into your days and let time do the heavy lifting. Replace hacks with habits, distractions with discipline, and wishful thinking with a simple scorecard. Trim 125 calories, read ten pages, make one extra call, take a short walk—then keep going. The gains won’t look dramatic at first, but the curve always bends upward. As you align daily actions with your values and protect your focus, momentum clicks in. Health improves, money grows, relationships warm, and confidence compounds. This is a clear operating system for turning small wins into extraordinary outcomes.About the Author
