What makes 100% ?

What Makes 100%?
 
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 to those meetings  where someone wants you to give over  100%.
 
How about achieving 103%?
 
What  makes up 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%
 
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% 
 
AND, look how far ass  kissing  will take you.
 
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G 
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7  = 118% 
 
So, one can conclude  with mathematical certainty, that while  Hard  work  and  Knowledge will get you close, and  Attitude  will get you there. Its  the  Bullshit  and  Ass  Kissing that will put you over the  top. 
 
 
Now you  know why Politicians are where they  are!           
 

I’ve never seen a better explanation than this formula…………..
how true it is.

It all makes sense now!

Well, according to the article, if you kiss ass and spew bullshit, you'll do better than 100%, and make it to the top before anyone else.
Seems to work great in politics!

I remember another good one about the 100% thing...

A teacher faces their class and presents a very large glass jar full to the brim with golf balls.

He asks the class to describe the jar, and they unanimously agreed that it was full.

The teacher explained that the Jar represented us, our lives, and that the golf balls represented all the things we have to do, like Work / Study etc.

He then produced a large bag of small glass marbles and procedded to empty them into the jar. The marbles slipped down into the spaces between the balls until the jar was brim-full of balls AND marbles.

He once again asked the class to think about the jar... and again they unanimously agreed that it was full up.

The teacher said that the marbles represented the things that we would LIKE to but don't think we have the time or space to do, because of all the stuff that we HAVE to do.

He then produced a big bag of sand, and emptied that into the jar. The sand slipped down into the spaces between the marbles and balls until the jar was indeed full to the brim!

The class laughed and applauded!

The teacher explained that no matter how full we think our lives are... we can always fit in something that we'd LOVE to do but NEVER get around to.
Call your Grandmother! Sing! Dance! Pet a Dog! The sand represented all ofthe things that we'd LOVE to do...

... "Describe the Jar now" he asked the class...

And, of course, they all said that it was Definitely Full now!!!!

So, the teacher opened a couple of beers and poured them into the jar....
It slipped down easily into the jar, wetting the sand until at last the jar was full of the sandy, sludgey, marbley, golf-ball mixture.

The class roared their approval, and once the acclaim had died down the teacher explained that No Matter How Full Our Lives SEEM To Be....

There is ALWAYS room for a couple of Beers!

PS - I had to paraphrase most of that as I couldn't remember it!!! LOL
