The Bible says that “Love never fails.” (1 Corinthians 13:8a). But do you also know that the Bible tells us that “God is love.” (1 John 4:8b)? This is our assurance from God to be successful in life because love never fails.
You’ve heard of the phrase, “Always give your 100%.” Lately, this phrase has been extended to, “Give your 101% to be successful” and has given a new meaning to the word “perfect” by emphasizing on giving more than what “you think” you can give. Now what does it really mean to give 101% when this is not mathematically correct?
Today, let’s take things lightly and make a quasi-mathematical hypothesis, one that you’ve probably already received in your emails.
Let’s say that the English alphabet and numbers have a one-on-one relationship which goes this way: A=1, B=2, C=3...X=24, Y=25 and Z=26. What would be the results of knowledge, hard work and attitude in relation to success?
The sum of KNOWLEDGE is 96%.
The sum or result of HARD WORK is 98%.
The sum of ATTITUDE is 100%.
This tells us that knowledge can give you 96% success, while hard work can achieve 98% success but attitude can really get you there. This means, attitude is the most important key to achieving success in this world.
But wait! How can one go beyond this and give 101%? Let’s look at what “love of God” can do.
The sum of LOVE OF GOD equals 101%!
If attitude can get you there, only the love of God (firstly, God towards you and then you towards Him) can push you to greater heights and achieve what man thinks is impossible. Now that’s true success!
May you achieve true success!

PS. No go out there and give your 101%! How? Remember the Love of God!
