How Do You Give More Than 100%?
How often do you hear “She always gives more than 100%”; “We need everyone to give all they can and more”? Often we hear such exclamations at a time when you feel she is or everyone is already giving as much as they can. How can we do one iota more?
Well, when you wonder how anyone can give 100% or more consider this mathematical exercise. Perhaps it will shed some light onto your understanding.
If: A=1%, B=2%, C=3% . . . .X=24%, Y=25% and Z=26%.
Then:
Knowledge = 96%
Hardwork = 98%
Attitude = 100%
Perseverance = 131%
Persistance = 129%
And don’t think that a bunch of ‘hotair’ will get you by. Hotair equals a miserly 71%.
So knowledge of what needs to be done and hardwork alone don’t put you over the top as requested. Attitude gets you to 100% and a good dose of Persistance and Perseverance take you way over the top!
The same holds true for goals and dreams. One might have the correct tools to achieve goals but without the right mindset – attitude and perseverance, for example - those goals become what they started out as, dreams.
When you stop to plan your goals, to pursue your dreams, remember that the right mindset of attitude and some perseverance allows you to give more than a 100% and takes you over the top towards successful realization!
