Subject: HOW TO GIVE YOUR VERY BEST
We have all been to those meetings where someone wants over 100 percent. How about achieving 103 percent? Here's a little math that might prove helpful in the future. What makes life 100 percent?
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
can be 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 %
And, B U L L S H I T 2 21 12 12 19 8 9 20 = 103%
So, it stands to reason that hard work and knowledge will get
you close, but attitude and bullshit will put you over the top.
