history

Jerry is a restaurant manager in America. He is always in good spirits and always has a positive thing to say. If someone asks him what he is doing, he will always say, "If I get better, I'd rather be twins!"

Many of the waiters in the restaurant come out if Jerry moves out, so they can keep following him from one restaurant to another. The reason why the waiters came out following Jerry was because of his attitude.

Jerry is a natural motivator. if the employee is having a bad day, he is always there, telling the employee how to see the positive side of the situation.

Seeing that style really made me curious, so one day I met Jerry and asked him, "I do not understand! It's impossible for someone to be a positive person all the time.

How can you do that? "Jerry replied," Every morning I wake up and say to myself, I have two choices today. I can choose to be in a good atmosphere or choose in a bad atmosphere. I always choose in a good atmosphere. Every time something happens, I can choose to be a victim or I learn from it. I always choose to learn from it. Every time someone complains, I can choose to accept their complaint or I can take the positive side .. I always choose the positive side. "

"But it's not always that easy," I protested. "Yes, it is," said Jerry, "Life is a choice.When you get rid of the whole problem, every situation is a choice.You choose how to react to all circumstances.You choose how the people around you are affected by your circumstances.You choose to is in good or bad state, it is your choice, how you live. "

A few years later, I heard Jerry had an unexpected disaster in the restaurant business: leaving the back door unlocked one morning and being robbed by three armed men. While trying to open the safe, her hands tremble from nervousness and misplaced the combination number. The robbers panicked and shot him. Fortunately, Jerry was quickly found and immediately taken to the hospital.

After undergoing surgery for 18 hours and a week of intensive care, Jerry can leave the hospital with some parts of the bullet still in his body. I saw Jerry six months after the accident.

When I asked Jerry how he was doing, he replied, "If I get better, I'd rather be a twin. Want to see my scars?" I looked down to see his injuries, but I still asked him what he thought when the robbery happened.

"The first thing that comes to mind is that I have to lock the back door," Jerry replied. "Then after they shot and I lay on the floor, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or die, I chose to live."

"Are not you afraid?" I asked. Jerry continued, "The medical experts are great, they keep telling me I'm going to recover, but when they push me into the emergency room and see the facial expressions of the doctors and nurses I get scared, their eyes say 'This guy's gonna die' I know I must take action. "

"What are you doing?" ask me. "There's a fat nurse asking me," Jerry said. "He asked if I had any allergies." Yes I replied ..

The doctors and nurses stopped working and they waited for my answer. I took a deep breath and shouted, 'Bullets!' Amid their laughter I say, 'I choose to live. Help me operate as a living person, not a dead person '. "

Jerry can live because of the skill of the doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day you can choose whether you will enjoy your life or hate it.

The one thing that really belongs to you that can not be controlled by others is the attitude of your life, so that if you can control it and everything in life will be easier.
