In his book Atomic Habits, author James Clear outlines a systematic method for self- improvement. Rather than __1__ achieving goals, he stresses the importance of small, sustained improvements in any endeavor, success is inevitable.
Clear points out a number of problems that people typically __3__ when setting goals for themselves. One of these is that reaching a goal only accomplishes a momentary change in people. Once the goal is attained, people often __4__ their old bad habits. Take dieting for example. When people reach their target weight, they normally return to their former eating habits and put the weight back on. He also claims that having __5__ goals limits people’s happiness since they are always trying to pursue an end result and not focusing on the moments leading up to that result. Any __6__ along the way, therefore, can be very disheartening.
Instead of being goals-oriented, Clear’s __7__ to improvement emphasizes tiny gains of just 1% each day. Such minor improvements are virtually __8__. If you run one kilometer in six minutes, for example, a 1% improvement would total less than four seconds. Over time, however, these gains add up to a considerable __9__. Daily improvements of 1% over an entire year add up to a total gain of almost 38%. That would take your one-kilometer running time down to less than four minutes. Clear argues that this tactic is much more realistic for most people than simply setting a goal of __10__ their running time by over one-third. The same can be said for people trying to lose weight.
If this system makes sense to you, you may want to consider picking up a copy of Atomic Habits and learning more today.
