Ever hear someone say they give 150% in everything they do? They say that hard work, intelligence and attitude will get them everything they want.
So what does it really mean to give 150%? Here’s a little math to help figure it out:
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%
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
But there’s only one thing that will get you there:
J-E-S-U-S-C-H-R-I-S-T
10+5+19+21+19+3+8+18+9+19+20 = 151%
Jesus gave it all, in everything he did.
How much are you giving today?
“Jesus, thank you for showing us what it really takes to give it all. It is my only wish to strive to reflect your effort and sacrifice. Thanks for loving me 150% of the time. Amen.

So math for A+R+C+H+I+E comes out somewhere around 40+. That sounds about right. Thanks for continuing to renew my confidence. :)
But 37stories hits up against 150 so I'm ok with the math.
