Imagine an ice cube on a table in front of you. The room you are in is cold and you get steam when you breathe. It is -4 degrees Celsius. Slowly, the temperature in the room rises.
Minus three.
Minus two.
Minus one degree.
Then zero degrees. The ice is starting to melt. A single degree that does not make much of a difference in room temperature has caused a huge change.
The turning points are often the result of the accumulation of previous actions, which have built the potential needed to trigger a dramatic change.
