Think about this:
Giving 100 percent in everything you do is so important. According to statistics compiled by the Communications Division of Insight, Syncrude Canada Ltd., if 99.9 percent were good enough, then:
• 107 incorrect medical procedures will be performed by the end of the day today.
• Two million documents will be lost by the IRS this year.
• 22,000 transactions will be deducted from the wrong bank accounts in the next 60 minutes.
• 1,314 phone calls will be misplaced by telecommunication services every minute.
• 268,500 defective tires will be shipped this year.
• 14,208 defective PCs will be shipped this year.
• 103,260 income tax returns will be processed incorrectly this year.
• 5,517,200 cases of soft drinks produced in the next 12 months will be flatter than a bad tire.
• 3,065 copies of tomorrow's Wall Street Journal will be missing one of the three sections.
• 18,322 pieces of mail will be mishandled in the next hour.
• 291 pacemaker operations will be performed incorrectly this year.
• 880,000 credit cards in circulation will turn out to have incorrect cardholder information on their magnetic strips.
• $9,690 will be spent today, tomorrow, next Thursday, and every day in the future on defective, often unsafe sporting equipment.
• 55 malfunctioning automatic teller machines will be installed in the next 12 months.
• 20,000 incorrect drug prescriptions will be written in the next 12 months.
• 114,500 mismatched pairs of shoes will be shipped this year.
• 315 entries in Webster's Third New International Dictionary of the English Language will turn out to be misspelled.
• Two plane landings daily at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago will be unsafe.
• 12 babies will be given to the wrong parents each day.
Given statistics like those, does a pan of overbaked cookies seem like such a big deal? It is, if your standards are as high as they should be. And never stop trying to exceed those standards.
