THE BASIC MATH OF LIFE PROVES THAT ATTITUDE IS THE SECRET.


Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants over 100%.

How about achieving 103%? What makes life 100%?

Here's a little math that might prove helpful.



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%



and,



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,

attitude will get you there, but ***** will put you over the top.

And look how far



A S S K I S S I N G



1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 127%



will take you.

I have seen that before but it's still good

[phjrsaunt]

That's a good equation!

It's kind of depressing that if you combine hard work, knowledge and attitude, and eliminate ***** and asskissing, you're still at only 64%.
