Our Vision

Sharing Our Lessons Learned to get you 1 Percent closer to any or all of your goals

How we’ll get you 1 Percent CLoser

We’ll be posting weekly content from lessons we have learned in mostly a “how-to” format. Topics will include: leadership, meditation, productivity, business, psychology, investing, fitness, martial arts, and teaching

How we got started

I was looking for a way to better integrate what I’m learning about the above topics into my life. I direct messaged Brandon Turner (real estate investing author and host of the BiggerPockets Podcast) who I know is a life-long learned and asked for advice. He told me that various studies have shown that not only teaching, but the idea of teaching something helps people retain and implement what they learn. Thus, this blog was born, in order to teach readers what I learn, thereby helping me to learn better while improving the quality of your life. -Matt Tracy (founder)

Who this is for

We believe that now more than ever, everyone should be a life-long learner. Henry Ford once said “Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.” We write our posts for anyone looking to learn just a little bit more to get them a little bit closer to where they want to be. Our topics will probably appeal to entrepreneurs, business professionals, teachers, martial artists, leaders in any field, or those just searching for a better quality of life.

Format of our posts

Every post will start with WHY it is important to you, the reader. Next we’ll say where the lesson comes from, i.e. the person, book, or podcast we learned it from. Then comes the best part, the actual lesson learned!
