• Rather than seeking immediate perfection, kaizen advocates making consistent small changes, which cumulatively result in significant transformations.

• Practical applications of kaizen include tidying one room at a time, setting small milestones in sports or endurance feats, and incrementally cultivating positive character traits or habits.
