Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
Humans feel their best when they are doing their best - when they are putting in a 110% effort. The main attraction of any sporting contest is that all participants are trying their hardest, producing an intense and exciting spectacle.
This same principle applies not only to sports but in business as well. People experience their greatest happiness and highest job satisfaction when they are placed in a business environment in which they are putting in maximum effort. The investment of a peak effort in a business project produces enhanced self-esteem for everyone closely involved. Concentrating 110% on a successful project generates self-confidence and an intense sense of achievement. Total involvement generates pride.
The benefits of a 110% approach to business don’t need to be enjoyed only on rare occasions or accidentially. A smart career builder will create the appropriate environment and motivating circumstances under which an all-out effort is required on a consistent basis. In that way, the practical benefits of the 110% performance (doing your best plus a little bit extra) can be enjoyed time and again.

Summary of The 110% Solution (Mark H. McCormack)
1. THE 110% IDEAL
Main Idea
Human beings feel their best when they are doing their best. This applies not only to professional sports but in business as well. People experience their greatest happiness and highest job satisfaction whenever they are immersed in a business environment into which they are putting a maximum effort.
The investment of that peak effort produces enhanced self-esteem for everyone closely involved. Similarly, concentrating 110% on a successful project generates self-confidence and an intense sense of achievement.
Any person can enjoy the benefits of an ongoing 110% effort with practice, discipline, knowledge and a willingness to push beyond current personal limits.
Supporting Ideas
Most of the developed world has a healthy obsession with the fortunes of locally based sports teams - whether the sport is rugby, soccer, baseball or whatever. The spectacle of any sports competition is thrilling because the people involved are trying their hardest.
This same spirit does not need to be confined to the sports arena alone. In any area of life, a person putting in a 110% effort - their very best plus a little extra - is impressive. To maintain that over the long term takes discipline and a willingness to consistently push beyond normally accepted limits.
Some people try and get by in their professional careers putting in only 50% of whatever they are actually capable of. Others operate at around 75% and rely on street smarts to make up for their lack of total commitment.
For example:
Assume a person has developed a new business idea and would like the chance to explain the idea to the Chairman of the company.
A 50% solution would be to dream that it would be nice to run into the Chairman in the elevator some time.
A 75% solution might be to think a little about what you would say to the Chairman if you happened to bump into him.
