Question

   Jerry was always in a good mood and always had something positive (積極的) to say. He was a unique manager because he always had several waiters who followed him around. The reason why the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude. If a worker was having a bad day,Jerry was there telling the worker how to see the positive side of the situation.

    Seeing this lifestyle really made me curious,so one day I came up to Jerry and asked him,n How do you stay positive all the time?" Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself,4 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.  choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens,I can choose to be a victim (受害者) 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 complaint or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life."

   "But it is not that easy," I said. M Yes,it is," Jerry said. M Life is all about choices. Every situation is a choice. You can choose how you react (回應) to situations. And you can choose to be in a good mood or a bad mood."
