If you’re like most of us, you’ve probably noticed that the difference between top athletes seems to be very small – but you’ve perhaps not observed exactly how small those differences are. Curious about this, Tom did some research and found exactly how small the differences are. In looking at the Men’s Downhill in the 2006 Winter Olympics, for example, he found that the difference between a Gold Medal and no medal was 1.08 seconds or .9%. And no matter where he looked, he found pretty much the same thing. The difference between Gold and no medal averaged about 1%. The difference between Gold and 10th place? About 2%. Since chances are you’re not going to compete in the Olympics, the real question is what can you learn that you can use in whatever you do. And that’s where Tom comes in. He found three things at the core of that 1% difference – three things you can use to create a comparable level of performance. They’re all in The 1% Solution, scheduled for release in 2009.

What do award-winning sales reps, peak performers, top students, leading companies, world-renowned athletes, and other successful people all have in common? They understand the power of 1%. And now, so can you. The 1% Solution is a groundbreaking new book from New York Times bestselling author, Tom Connellan, that will help you find—and release—your true hidden potential. The truth is that winners are never 100% better than everyone else. They’re just a little better at many different things. For example, did you know that Olympic Gold Medal winners are only about 1% faster than the fourth place finisher who gets no medal at all? The 1% Solution shows you that because of the power of leverage, a relatively small change in the way you do things can have an outsized effect on the results you can achieve. Whether your goals are professional and career-oriented or personal life changes, Connellan helps you make those small changes permanent with big results. Each actionable idea outlined throughout the book triggers an automatically positive response as soon as you implement it into your actions and daily life. After a few short days of implementation, your life can—and will—change for the better. A combination of solid research and street-wise applications The 1% Solution’s steady stream of practical ideas and actions will make your next 30 days the best you’ve ever had. Every one has the power to move the world—1% at a time!
