Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a goodmood and always has something positive to say. When someone would askhim how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I』d betwins!」 He was a natural motivator. 8 L% |! {. D0 K& t
  
9 P4 G5 t* r8 c: E1 H  邁克爾是那種你真想恨一恨的傢伙,他總是樂呵呵的,總是說些積極上進的話。如果有人問他近況如何,他會這樣回答:「如果我還能再好,我就成雙胞胎了!」他生來就會讓人積極進取。

  If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling theemployee how to look on the positive side of the situation. Seeing thisstyle really made me curious, so one day I went up to Michael and askedhim, "I don』 t get it. You can』 t be positive all the time. How do youdo it?"

  Michael replied, each morning I wake up and say to myself 『Mike, youhave two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you canchoose to be in a bad mood.』 I choose to be in a good mood. Each timesomething bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learnfrom it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to mecomplaining I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point outthe positive side of life.

  Soon thereafter, I left the big enterprise that I had worked in foryears to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often though abouthim when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Severalyears later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident,falling off 60 feet from a communications tower. 1 R3 c  A+ p7 h0 P1 [$ V# M

  After l8 hours ofsurgery, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from thehospital with rods placed in his back. I saw Michael about six monthsafter the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I wereany better, I』d be twins. Wanna see my scars?" I declined to see hiswounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accidenttook place.

Michaelcontinued, "... the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I wasgoing to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the operation room andI saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I gotreally scared. In their eyes, l read 『He』s a dead man.』 I knew I neededto take action." "What did you do?" I asked. "Well, there was a bigburly nurse shouting questions at me」 said Michael. "She asked me if Iwas allergic to anything. 『Yes,』 I said. The doctors and nurses stoppedworking as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled",『Gravity』」 Over their laughter, I told them, 『I』m choosing to live.Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead』."

  「我首先想到的是我那即將出世的女兒的幸福生活,」邁克爾答道。「當時我躺在地上,我記起我有兩種選擇:我可以選擇活著,也可以選擇死。我選擇了活。」「你難道不害怕嗎?你失去知覺了嗎?」我問。邁克爾接著說,「……那些護理人員棒極了。他們不停地告訴我我會好的。但當他們把我推進手術室,我看到醫生和護士臉上的表情時,我真是嚇壞了。在他們的眼裡,我讀出了』他是個死人。』我知道我應該採取行動。」「你採取了什麼行動?」我問道。「有一位人高馬大的護士大聲衝我問問題,」邁克爾說。「她問我是否對什麼過敏。』是的,』我說。醫生和護士都停下手中的活兒等我回答。我深吸一口氣大聲說出,』萬有引力。』他們的笑聲未了,我告訴他們,』我選擇活著。把我當活人而不是死人來做手術。」『
