What equals 100 percent? What does it mean to give 100 percent? What determines 100 percent in all of your endeavors? This formula provides an interesting answer.

If you take:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

And represent it 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 PERCENT

And
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5
= 96 percent

But
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
