It starts with this idea...

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.
One extra degree makes all the difference.

One Degree Makes All the Difference

One degree. Applying one extra degree of temperature to water means the difference between something that is simply very hot and something that generates enough force to power a machine - a beautifully uncomplicated metaphor that should feed our every endeavor - consistently pushing us to give the extra effort in every task, action, and effort we undertake to achieve extraordinary results.

212° the extra degree excerpts

(excerpt from the original 212° the extra degree book, pages 16 & 17)

"Inches make the champion."

Vince Lombardi | Hall of Fame football coach | 1913 - 1970

Professional golf tournaments are comprised of four rounds (games) of 18 holes each played over a four-day period (72 holes total). There are four major tournaments each year - the Masters, the U.S. Open, the British Open, and the PGA Championship. The average margin of victory between 1990 and 2014 (25 years) in all tournaments combined was under three strokes - less than a one stroke difference per day. The winners of these tournaments took home an average of 78% more in prize dollars than the second place finisher (before endorsements and other earnings).

Applying 212° the extra degree concepts

(excerpt from the original 212° the extra degree book, pages 56, 57, and 60)

Ideas for implementing the 212 mindset in your life are suggested in the following pages. These are specific ways for you to begin taking 212 action right now - this week. They're just the beginning for you. Grab hold of one or two and begin (or start with your own). Once you start, it'll be difficult for you to act in any other way. 212 (two-twelve) will become a wonderful new habit in your world - a backdrop to all that you do - a habit that will create fantastic life results for you and help you serve as an influence to all those people around you.

Remember...

With awareness comes responsibility ... responsibility to act.

AS A FRIEND

Choose to visit or talk with two extra friends each week and create more than 100 additional discussions among friends for the year.

Do something helpful and unexpected for one friend each week of the year and plant over 50 additional possibilities of positive influence.

Forgive someone faster each week and put 52 better vibes out into the world every year.

Put your phone away once more each day when you're with someone. Add 365 more friendly and attentive moments to your year.

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.

Make the extra contact each day ... a sales call ... a customer ... a brief discussion with a colleague ... an encouraging talk with a member of your team. With contact comes opportunity. At the end of a year you'll have opened more than 200 additional doors of possibility.

Reflect & Review 212° the extra degree

(excerpt from the original 212° the extra degree book, pages 72 & 73)

CEASE TO COMPLAIN

The weather.
The traffic.
My boss.
My customer.
My mother.
My father.
My sister.
My brother.

I don't have enough... But I really need...

I can't... If only [he, she, they] would...

It's been a tough [day, week, month]...

It's [Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday]...

212 APPROACH

Be. Move forward. Cease to complain.

Your words move others. Your words move you. Make yours send everyone in the right direction. Complaining once less a day chokes off 365 seeds of negativity a year.

212 COMMITMENT

Put a smile in the path of a complaint ... once daily.

Cease to complain.

This is one of eight reflections in this section of the book. Reread the 212 excerpts from the beginning.
