A Mathematical Viewpoint at Life
Take a look at this 101%!
What equals 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 in situations where someone wants you to give over 100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%
What equals 100% in life? Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:
If:
H-A-R-D-WO-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98%
And
K-N-OW-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%
Then, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4=101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
