Description
The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness, written by Jeff Olson, is a practical guide to understanding how everyday decisions compound over time. First published in 2011, the book emphasizes that success is not the result of dramatic breakthroughs but of consistently applied small actions.
Olson explains that both success and failure follow the same principle: daily choices that seem insignificant in the moment eventually produce predictable outcomes. By mastering simple disciplines—such as consistency, attitude, habits, and personal responsibility—individuals can dramatically alter the trajectory of their lives.
Rather than relying on motivation or talent, The Slight Edge teaches readers to focus on process, patience, and persistence, making it a natural complement to habit-building, mindset, and execution-focused systems.
