This comes from two maths teachers with a combined total experience of 70 years.
It has an indisputable mathematical logic.
It also made me LAUGH OUT LOUD.
This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint------it goes like this.

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 more than 100%.
How about achieving 103%?
What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer those 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 asskissing will get 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 HARDWORK and KNOWLEDGE will get you close, and attitude will get you there, its the BULL5HIT and ASSKISSING that will put you over the top.

Now I know why some people are where they are.
