One Hundred percent!
According to Wikipedia it means mathematically the entirety or all of something. Lot of people know it and say it but how many of us actually give 100%. By this I mean day in day out on a consistent basis. If this was the case, we would not be complaining that we need to loose 20 lbs, make more money or have a better relationship. However we live in a day and age where people are actually proud about how lazy they are, and go out of their way to do as little as possible. I admit that there are several things where I know I could do better, given the time and the effort. I even recently heard an advertisement of someone boasting about how they work about 15 minutes of solid work each day.
Take this as an example: As much as I am a fiercely proud Canadian, I must commend my neighbors to the south. When it comes to the big events the American’s really pull out all the stops and leave nothing on the table. Take the Olympic’s for example, typically in most major events the American’s are the one’s on top or the one’s to beat. They find a way to really step it up and give their 100%.
