A young man who felt proud of his speech came to see a famous orator to learn about leadership. The young man self-confidently introduced himself to the orator and kept talking about himself. The orator silently listened to him until he finished. Then, he laid down a condition.
“I think you should pay tuition twice as much as others.”
The young man asked in puzzlement.
“Why do I alone have to pay double?”
The orator replied.
“If you want to be a great leader, you must learn how to control your tongue first before learning how to use it properly. Since I have to teach you more than others, isn’t it reasonable to charge you double?”
