The average person puts about 25% of his energy and ability into his work. The world takes its hat off to those who put more than 50% of their capacity into their work, and the world stands on its head for those few and far between souls who devote 100%.

  1. But I think these days the world shun those few and far between souls who devote 100%.

  2. What do you think of actors? I don’t think they do much to warrant the celebrity worship & millions of dollars the world gives them.

  3. Does the study indicate which day of the week, said 100%’er, is most active? I’m kind of hit and miss. One day there is 0% and the next might be 50%. The 100% days come after too many 0-50% days and I have to get with the program. 😀

  4. We must do what we do to the best of our abilities, give the very best. One of my guidelines kind of a mantra that plays in my head when I work, is a verse from the bible: whatsoever thine hands findeth to do, do it with all thy might. Thks Don.. always inspiring
