Ep. 68 - The Compound Effect

The End of the Day Podcast with Kari Watterson: Using Mindset Work to Live Your Best Life

"The Compound Effect is the principle of reaping huge rewards from a series of small, smart choices. What's most interesting about this process to me is that, even though the results are massive, the steps, in the moment, don't feel significant."
- Darren Hardy, Author of The Compound Effect and Publisher of SUCCESS Magazine
So, why do many of us give up before reaching our desired results?
According to Darren Hardy, one reason is that we haven't yet experienced the benefits of the Compound Effect.
Having recently experienced these benefits in my own life, I wholeheartedly agree.

When you finally reap the rewards of your consistent and persistent choices over time, you realize that what seemed like small steps in the moment were actually incredibly valuable.
In this episode, I share some real-life examples of the Compound Effect in action, stemming from a commitment I made four to five years ago to take full responsibility for the results I wanted in life.
Unlike goals such as losing weight or paying off debt, committing to personal and emotional responsibility for our thoughts, feelings, actions, and results can feel like unseen work with slow progress and intangible rewards.
By sharing my experiences, I hope to encourage anyone doing this work to keep going so you can give yourself the chance to experience the payoff of the Compound Effect.
