How true
The old Numbers game
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%?
Here's a little maths 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
are 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 hardwork and knowledge will get you
close, and attitude will get you there, but will put
you in the highly recognised category.
And look how far
A S S K I S S I N G
will take you
1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%
And you thought you weren't going to learn anything today!
take it easy.
