The Alarm That Never Failed A student set five alarms for 5:00 AM because he wanted to read before school. 5:00 AM — Alarm rang. He said, “Just five more minutes.” 5:05 AM — Second alarm rang. He said, “This one is too early.” 5:10 AM — Third alarm rang. He said, “I heard you, relax.” 5:15 AM — Fourth alarm rang. He switched it off without opening his eyes. 5:20 AM — Fifth alarm rang. He boldly turned it off and slept again. The next sound he heard was his mother shouting, “Are you not going to school today?” He jumped up and checked the time. 7:45 AM. At that moment, he realized the alarms had done their job perfectly. The only person who failed was the owner. Lesson: Opportunities can wake you up many times, but they cannot get out of bed for you. 😆📚**
