What makes 100%? What makes up 100% in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you
answer these questions:
If:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 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%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that
while hard work and knowledge will get you close,
Attitude will get you ALL THE WAY.
