I do not know where this came from, but our manager shared it with us the other day in a meeting and I thought after a little editing it was worth passing on.
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:
What makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about these people who say they are giving more that 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: the alphabet is represented numerically A=1 B=2, C=3 etc. thru Z=26;
Then:
HARDWORK = 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11= 98%
and
KNOWLEDGE = 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
but
ATTITUDE = 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5= 100%
and
WHO YOU KNOW = 23+8+15+25+15+21+11+14+15+23 = 170%
So you can conclude with mathematical certainty that while HARD WORK and KNOWLEDGE will get you close and ATTITUDE will get you there, it's WHO YOU KNOW that will put you over the top to success.

Stacey,
Thanks for stopping by, go ahead and share away. This is all stuff we know, but we forget to apply to our every day lives. It just puts it in a "Mathematical" perspective.
How about..."It's Who you know and how much you are like Him and let him live through you..."
(I know...too wordy...hehehehe)
=-)
Hey...I'm going to have to pass this one on! AWESOME!
