Mathematics: 

This comes from 2 math teachers with a combined total of 70 yrs. experience.

It has an indisputable mathematical logic. 

This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint and 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 over 100%. 

How about achieving 103%? 

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these 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 21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103% 

and, look! how far ass kissing will take 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 then conclude with mathematical certainty that: 

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, Bullshit and Ass Kissing will put you over the top!
