212 – The Extra Degree, Authors  – Mac Anderson & Sam Parker

• Use the 212 movie to open your next team meeting and give the book as a meeting takeaway

• Recommended reading for team building, personal development, sports teams and schools.

At 211º water is hot. At 212º, it boils. And with boiling water, comes steam. And steam can power a locomotive.
The one extra degree makes the difference.
This simple analogy reflects the ultimate definition of excellence. Because it’s the one extra degree of effort, in business and life, that can separate the good from the great.
This powerful book by Sam Parker and Mac Anderson gives solid examples of how to incorporate the 212º philosophy into all aspects of your life – at work, with friends and as a parent. Great quotes and great stories illustrate the 212º concept in a memorable format. A warning… once you read it, it will be hard to forget.

“The theme for our annual convention was created around The Extra Degree. The video was powerful and the book made a perfect meeting gift!” – Mike Butkus, McDonalds Corporation.

TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK

• “The power to affect your future lies within your own hands” – Nido Qubein.
• There’s no secret formula for success. But, in this book, Dr. Qubein will show you how to make the right choices for a life of both success and significance.
• A wonderful book for anyone just starting out or someone looking for change in their career or life path.

Every once in awhile, you meet someone whose perspective changes yours… whose way of looking at the world challenges you to be a better person.

Dr. Nido Qubein is one of those people. His personal story is an inspiration in itself. He arrived in this country as a teenage immigrant with little knowledge of English and 50 dollars in his pocket. But, what he did have was a belief that if you work hard enough and smart enough, you can make good things happen in your life.

And that’s exactly what he did. Now the president of High Point University in High Point, North Carolina, Dr. Qubein is also Chairman of Great Harvest Bread Company and director of several New York Stock Exchange companies. He’s been an entrepreneur, consultant, author and one of the most sought-after speakers in the country.

In his latest book, Seven Choices for Success and Significance, Dr. Qubein shares his insights on the choices he made for success.

“Success is not a matter of luck, not an accident of birth, not a reward for virtue. The most successful people I know are the ones who have something to do, somewhere to be and someone to love.

No one is responsible for your success or your joy. You must search for it and be in a continual state of earning it.

To merely succeed is not an end in itself. You must use your success to impact other people…to impact the world…to Live Life from the Inside Out.

It all starts with the choices you make—they determine the person you will become. “

- An excerpt from Seven Choices for Success and Significance.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from someone who not only has set a standard for achievement, but who does so in a way which gives back to others. Seven Choices for Success and Significance will give you the tools you need to choose both success and significance in your own life.
