Micro-Habits: The Tiny Changes That Supercharge High Performance

We often assume that the highest-performing people have some huge secret – they’re doing something drastically, life-alteringly different to the rest of us. But in the course of 400 interviews with leading sportspeople, entrepreneurs and leaders, Jake Humphrey and Damian Hughes have found the opposite: that real success comes from small, seemingly insignificant behaviours, repeated again and again. They call them micro-habits. Drawing on exclusive in-person interviews with some of the world’s most remarkable people – from Lando Norris to Usain Bolt to Sarina Weigman – Micro-Habits introduces the 48 tiny, repeatable behaviours that high performers use to achieve excellence. And the best thing? They work right away.
