About this audiobook
At 211º water is hot. At 212º, it boils. And with boiling water, comes steam. And steam can power a locomotive. It's that ONE extra degree that makes all the difference. Use this powerful metaphor to reach new heights.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This quick motivational concept has some good stories, most about how a little more effort for just a little longer can make huge differences in the outcome. The framework makes sense, but the wrapper just didn't move me. Plus many of the stories were already too familiar. It would probably have more effect for someone not already steeped in the genre.
