Clever promise
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 clever? asked his son.
"Clever is that you'll never make such a promise, " the father answered.
聪明的承诺
一天，父亲教育儿子说：“一个人成功的关键就是严守诺言和足够聪明。
一旦你给了别人承诺，无论发生什么事，
你都得实现它，这个就叫‘守诺言’。”
儿子问：“那么什么是聪明呢？”
父亲回答：“聪明就是任何时候都别做这样的承诺。”
