101 %

One of my friends had this on her website today. I thought it was SO neat, I had to put it on mine too. (Thanks Amos!!)

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%

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 by:

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 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 Hardwork 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!
