Give a 100! A Mathematical Formula for Getting Ahead

Have you even heard anyone ask you if you’re giving 100 percent? Well, we finally found a mathematical formula to help understand what it takes to give 100 percent.
Here’s how it works:

In this formula— 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

Using this formula we can determine the following:

HARDWORK is worth 8 + 1 + 18 + 4 + 23 + 15+ 18 + 11 = 98 percent
And
KNOWLEDGE is worth 11 + 14 + 15 + 23 + 12 + 5 + 4 + 7 + 5 = 96 percent
But,
ATTITUDE is worth 1 + 20 + 20 + 9 + 20 + 21 + 4 + 5 = 100 percent

So one can then conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, Attitude will get you there!
