Once upon a time... There's a boy named Alex.. His father worked in the shipyard. And he too followed his father at a young age.

One day, A giant ship engine failed. The ship's owners tried one expert after another,
but none of them could figure but how to fix the engine. Then they brought
in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a young boy.
He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately
went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom.
Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would
know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into
his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something.
Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away.
The engine was fixed! A week later, the owners received a bill from the
old man for ten thousand dollars.
"What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!"
So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill."

CAN YOU GUESS WHAT WAS THE BREAK DOWN????
Alex n his father read the bill that states:
Tapping with a hammer. ............. . $ 2.00
Knowing where to tap..........$ 9,998.00

the moral is,
Effort is important,
but knowing where to make
an effort in your life makes the difference.
