187 99% or 1%

It always has to add up to 100%

The very first satellite was a simple radio transmitter sending “Beep, Beep” (1%)

It took many huge radio telescopes to track that signal. (99%)

Today we ‘position’ satellites costing multi-billions in the sky. (99%)

And almost any simple television dish can pickup those signals. (1%)

In both cases a certain amount of work has to be done. (100%)

So if you want to succeed at something, (business, family, writing a book, etc.)

either you do the work or the other person has to.

Quite often looking around for something on a web site is too much work.

So I just quit trying.

They obviously did not do the work, so I would have to.

Because it always has to add up to 100%

In whatever situation you are in, if you do not do most of the work (99%)

chances are nobody else will want to.

If things are not working out for you, ask your self how much work you are doing.

Then do enough to bring it to 99%

And just watch how quickly people do the remaining 1%
