GREAT THINGS NEVER COME EASY
Once upon a time there were two siblings, they were twins, named Luis and
Alberto. They were studying in High School. Both were classmates as well. Luis
was a studious boy but Alberto was a fun-loving boy and was not serious in
studies. Luis used to study regularly to get good marks in exams whereas Alberto
was not serious in studies and used to cheat in exams by using applications and
web pages that helped him to answer easily the exams.
Alberto scored good marks in exams by using these techniques and always made
him understand “Life is for fun and joy. I always pass with smart techniques. You
should also enjoy your life like me”, but Luis never agreed with him.
Later on, the end of their high school studies was approaching, the students began
to take entrance exams for the universities they wanted. Luis was a
knowledgeable person and got selected by university recruitment, but Alberto was

 neither a knowledgeable nor a skillful person, so, he couldn’t be selected by the
university recruitment.
While Luis was still studying and making a great effort to become a successful
engineer, his brother could not study any career because of his bad grades.
Consequently, Alberto had to find a job with a low salary, and he was always
regretting for the consequences of his laziness.
