Thanks to Dirk...

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants more than 100%.
 
Well here's how you do that.
 
Here's how you can achieve 103%.
 
First of all, here's a little math that might prove helpful in the future.
 
How does one achieve 100% in LIFE?
 
Begin by noting the following
 
 IF: 
A = 1 
B = 2 
C = 3 
D = 4 
E = 5 
F = 6 
G = 7 
H = 8 
I = 9 
J = 10 
K = 11 
L = 12 
M = 13 
N = 14 
O = 15 
P = 16 
Q = 17 
R = 18 
S = 19 
T = 20 
U = 21 
V = 22 
W = 23 
X = 24 
Y = 25 
Z = 26 
 
Then: 
H A R D W O R K = 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = Only 98%
 
Similarly, 
K N O W L E D G E = 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = Only 96%
 
But interesting (and as you'd expect),
A T T I T U D E = 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100% ... This is how you achieve
100% in LIFE. 
 
But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT TO NOTE (or REALIZE), is
B U L L S H I T = 2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%
 
So now you know what all those high-priced consultants, upper
management,and motivational speakers really mean when they want to
exceed 100%!
