Positive Thinking乐天人生 　　朋友圈里有一位“乐天派”不失为人生中的一大幸事。杰瑞就是这样的人，他凡事总往好的方面想，不仅自己生活得快乐无忧，也总能感染身边的人。杰瑞用他的亲身经历告诉我们，乐观的心态究竟蕴含着多么巨大的能量――在危急关头，甚至能够救你一命！ 　　Jerry was the kind of guy you love to hate. He was always in a good mood and always had something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing， he would reply， If I were any better， I would be twins！ 　　He was a unique manager because he had severai waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant. The reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude. He was a natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day， Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. 　　Seeing this style really made me curious， so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him， I dont get it！ You cant be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it？ Jerry replied， Each morning I wake up and say to myself，Jerry， you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens， I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining， I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.【译文】 　　杰瑞是那种让你又爱又恨的家伙。他总是心情上佳，言谈积极。碰到有人问起近况，他总会这般答道：“如果我能选择更好的生活，我还是会这样选择！” 　　杰瑞是个独特的餐厅经理，因为总有几个服务生围着他转。他们都是被其乐观向上的态度所吸引。杰瑞是个天生的激励者。如果有员工遇到倒霉事，他总会在一边开导他们往问题积极的一面看。 　　这一现象令我好奇不已。于是有一天，我走上前问道：“我搞不懂，你总不能一直保持乐观吧？你是如何做到的呢？”杰瑞回答我：“每天早晨醒来，我都会对自己说：‘杰瑞，今天你有两个选择。你可以选择一个好心情，也可以选择一个坏心情。’我选择前者。每次遇到问题，我可以选择成为受害者，也可以选择从中吸取经验教训。遇到有人前来抱怨，我可以选择默默倾听，也可以指出生活积极的一面。而我选择后者。” 　　Yeah， right， it′s not that easy， I protested. 　　Yes it is， Jerry said. Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk， every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad
