Did you have a bad day yesterday? If you have one bad day after another, you need to learn the 90/10 secret (秘訣).

A bad start

Jack’s daughter, Emily, knocked over (打翻) a cup of milk and it fell on his trousers at breakfast yesterday. Jack got annoyed. He shouted at his daughter and she started to cry.

“Why did you shout at her?” asked his wife. “Why did you put the cup on the edge (邊緣) of the table?” replied Jack. Then he went to change his trousers.

Because she was upset, Emily didn’t get ready for school in time and she missed her bus. Jack had to drive Emily to school. Because he didn’t have enough time, he forgot his bag. He was forty minutes late for work. As soon as he got there, he had to go home again to get his bag.

Did it have to be a bad start?

So, here’s the 90/10 secret.
