Giving 100%
What makes 100%? What does it mean to give 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give 100%. What makes up 100% in life? Here is a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
Then:
H - A - R - D - W - O - R - K
8 + 1 + 18 + 4 + 23 + 15 + 18 + 11 = 98%
K - N - O - W - L - E - D - G - E
11 + 14 + 15 + 23 + 12 + 5 + 4 + 7 + 5 = 96%
But, A - T - T - I - T - U - D - E
1 + 20 + 20 + 9 + 20 + 21 + 4 + 5 = 100%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard W ork and Knowledge will get you close, Attitude will get you there.
