Message from dad: Same message with different results!

The cobbled streets and shabby houses provide an unfamiliar sight to everyone who sees it. There are no luxury apartments and buildings here, everything looks ordinary. Some trees have become twigs, the ground looks barren.

At the crossroads, we can see a small, simple house. There lived a harmonious family. Pak Harun has two teenage sons. After graduating from junior high school, both chose to become entrepreneurs and quit their education.

His father supported both of them. An old treasure trove, sold a patch of garden to be used as his second capital. Both earn $500 dollars per person.

Before handing over the capital money, his father gave a message to his two children.

"If you want to be successful in trading, follow these two things; firstly, you must never collect debts from other people, and secondly, no one should see you when you open your shop."

Both agree with the opinion of the father. A few weeks later they have opened their respective trading places. Several years passed, the father did not get any news about his two children. And he and his wife chose to visit them in their respective endeavors.

When they arrived at the first child, they were very surprised and asked;

"Why are you doing this, my son?"

The first child answered;

“I followed my father's message that I should not collect other people's debts, so people's debts piled up and I lost. Second, no one has to look when I open a shop, so I often close the shop because the people there are quicker here."

Then they went to their second child, they were also surprised to see him and asked;

"Why are you doing this, my son?"

The child replied;

"I am like this because I follow my father's message, that I should not collect debts from other people, so I don't give debts to anyone. Second, no one should see me when I open a shop, so I choose to open it early while other people are still sleeping and closing it later at night when other people have rested at home. So my business is successful like this."

The father smiled and hugged his son. What benefits can we get from the story above? To achieve success, the most important thing is that we must obey the advice of parents, because the prayers of parents are the best prayers that God has never rejected.

Second, in the same thing, we must be more observant to see it from a different and positive perception. So that we can achieve certain goals.

Success does not come by itself, you have to try. We must be more observant in seeing opportunities, because everyone has the same chance of success. May we all always be successful people!
