At the age of 16, Einstein failed in several courses because he mixed with a group of naughty kids. One weekend morning, Einstein held a fishing rod and was about to fish with those kids, his father stopped him and said to him calmly,” Einstein, you’re so fond of playing all day that you failed in the examination. I’m so worried about your future with your mother.”
“What are you worrying about? Jack and Robert also failed, but don’t they go fishing as usual?”
“My boy, you can’t think so,” Looking at Einstein, his father said lovingly, “There goes a story in our hometown. I hope you can listen to it carefully.”
“There were two cats playing on the roof. Accidentally, a cat fell into the chimney holding another one When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, a cat’s face was polluted with the soo（烟灰) while the other’s face was clean. Seeing the soot-faced cat, the clean cat thought its face was dirty and ugly, so it quickly ran to the riverside and washed its face. the soot-faced cat saw the clean-faced cat, thinking its face was also clean, so it wandered（闲逛）in the street without washing its face.”
“Einstein, no one can be your mirror. Only you are your own mirror. Taking other people to be your mirror, even a genius may become a fool.”
Hearing this, Einstein was ashamed and lay down his fishing rod and returned to his small room. Since then, Einstein often took himself as a mirror to check, and reminding himself. I was special, so I needn’t be as ordinary as others. This was why Einstein succeeded.
Different ways and wishes will produce different attitudes（态度）towards life. You can consult the other people’s attitudes to decide your own, but you can never follow others to do so.
You must see yourself clearly, and know what your goal is. Your future doesn’t depend on what others do, but on what you are going to do.
