In this episode of the Mi365 Podcast, Pete Cohen explores the power of the 1% rule—making small, consistent changes that lead to significant transformation over time. He challenges listeners to invest just 14 minutes and 24 seconds of their day (1% of a 24-hour period) into personal growth and self-improvement.
Pete discusses the importance of shifting perspectives, identifying key areas for growth, and overcoming the common obstacles that prevent us from making progress. He shares insights from Atomic Habits by James Clear and the philosophy of "Kaizen"—continuous improvement.
Key Topics Covered:
✔️ The Power of 1% Daily Improvement: Small, intentional actions create a compounding effect over time.
✔️ The Importance of Perspective: Real change happens when we see things differently, not just when we're told what to do.
✔️ Slowing Down to Reflect: Taking time to pause and assess where we are and where we want to be.
✔️ The Three Key Areas of Growth:
- Health & Energy
- Relationships (including the relationship with yourself)
- Wealth, Work & Service
✔️ The Gap Between Where You Are & Where You Want to Be: How to bridge that gap through small daily investments.
✔️ Overcoming Resistance to Change: Why we naturally avoid difficult things and how to push past initial discomfort.
✔️ The Power of Starting: Once you start, momentum makes it harder to stop.
Action Steps:
✅ Pick One Area – Choose one part of your life (health, relationships, or work) to invest 14 minutes and 24 seconds in each day.
✅ Commit to Small Steps – Focus on small, consistent changes instead of overwhelming transformations.
✅ Get Started Today – Don’t wait for motivation; action creates momentum.
