The trick of being successful

The trick of being successful

A young man was lazy and loved to talk rubbish. He often asked Einstein about what the trick of being successful was. Einstein was tired of it and wrote a formula to him: A = x + y + z.

Einstein explained: “A stands for success. X stands for hard work. Y stands for the right methods. And …”

“What’s z?” the young man could not wait.

“Z stands for Do Not Talk Rubbish.”
