Keys to Success
One day a father was teaching his son and said, "The keys to your success are keeping your word and cleverness. Once you give somebody a promise, you must carry it out on matter what will happen. This is called 'keeping one's words.'
"What is cleverness?" asked his son.
"Cleverness is that you'll never make such a promise, " the father answered.
【中文譯文】
成功的關鍵
一天,父親教育兒子説:“一個人成功的關鍵就是嚴守諾言和足夠聰明。一旦你給了別人承諾,無論發生什麼事,你都得實現它,這個就叫‘守諾言’。”
兒子問:“那麼什麼是聰明呢?”
父親回答:“聰明就是任何時候都別做這樣的承諾。”
