What Equals 100%?

Got this today via Email.

What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been in situations where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 101%? What equals 100% in life?

Here's 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%
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E (1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5) = 100%

AND, look how far the love of God will take you

L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D (12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4) = 101%

Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that: While hard work and knowledge will get you close, and attitude will get you there, it's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Now. You know me... I thought you might want to score your own favorite words or phrases.

  • If I did my math right (never my strong point), "Who cares?" would be 93%. Not too bad. On the other hand, "Who gives a flip?" would bring it way up. :)
