At 211 degrees, water is hot.
At 212 degrees, it boils.
And with boiling water comes steam.
And with steam, you can power a train.
In 212° the extra degree, we learn the key to achieving results beyond our wildest expectations. It is this surprisingly simple metaphor that has motivated millions to reach for the stars. I’m sharing an excerpt from 212° the extra degree that will inspire you to take action and implement the 212° philosophy into your own life…the results will be exponential!212° the extra degree: How many opportunities have you missed out on because you were not aware of the possibilities that could occur if you applied a small amount of extra effort beyond what you normally do? You are now aware. And with awareness comes responsibility… the responsibility to act. I encourage you to use just one of the suggestions below this week and let me know what happens!
212° As a Friend
Choose to visit or talk with one extra friend each week and create 52 additional discussions among friends for the year.
212° As a Spouse
Invest $100 each year in blank greeting cards and mail one each week to your spouse (at home or at the office) — more
than 52 “love notes” are sure to create more than a few “love moments.”
212° At Work
Add a few hours each month to your professional development outside of the work day knowing that you’ll have invested the equivalent of a full work week during the year in your most valuable asset…you.
212° As a Leader
Act in accordance with the understanding that your role has an objective of developing and encouraging others to succeed by becoming the best they can possibly be.
212° At Home
Eliminate one half hour of television watching each day and you get 182.5 hours each year to allocate elsewhere in your life. (that’s the equivalent to four and a half weeks of time).
