Publisher's Summary
Have you ever wondered what separates people who think bigger from people who set their bars low? What makes one person accept low standards and another person constantly raise them?
Why does one person strive to build an international organization affecting the lives of millions of people while another person is content working her entire life as a clerk? (Not that there's anything wrong with being a clerk!)
Why is one person challenging herself to run marathons, train her body, and get fitter while another is happy living a sedentary, unhealthy lifestyle?
What drives a person who's optimizing every single aspect of her life, and what causes another person to maintain the status quo?
You can say, "Well, the answer is simple enough - one person is ambitious while the other one is not." But what exactly causes it? How do you become more ambitious and think bigger? Is it something you're born with and can't change, or is it something over which you have control?
I found this topic so fascinating, I decided to find out the answer for myself and write a book about it. This book is the result of my research about people who think big and the science of being more ambitious.

"refreshing ideas"
It tells basics of motivation in a simple way. story is enjoying to listen. you may not hear the ideas for the first time but it is good to hear from a different mouth. In addition to these, it is a great way to spend time in traffic jam.

"Life Changing"
I am a member of Toastmasters International. I read books that habe have a purpose and,add value to my personal and professional growth. It had a profound impact on my view of several things, one being playing to win rather than playing to lose. Thank you for this extraordinary insight to thinking bigger.

"Short but good book"
The book is easy to digest and has lots of great info in it. It will either be a refresher book on the subject matter or it will wet your appetite for more. Still a good book. I'm interested in other books by Mr. Meadows.

"Concise and short"
What a great book for the commuter. I go through a number of audiobooks per month on my drive, and I find that longer books tend to be wasteful of time and attention. This book is the perfect length. Also, I very much appreciate the appendix at the end because when an author includes this, I am able to see and find new authors to spur my growth.
