守諾言和聰明有什么關(guān)系?
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 no 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.
一天,父親教育兒子說(shuō):“一個(gè)人成功的關(guān)鍵就是嚴(yán)守諾言和足夠聰明。一旦你給了別人承諾,無(wú)論發(fā)生什么事,你都得實(shí)現(xiàn)它,這個(gè)就叫‘守諾言’?!? 兒子問(wèn):“那么什么是聰明呢?” 父親回答:“聰明就是任何時(shí)候都別做這樣的承諾?!?/div>
