Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I’d be twins!” He was a natural motivator.
迈克尔是那种你真想恨一恨的家伙，他总是乐呵呵的，总是说些积极上进的话。如果有人问他近况如何，他会这样回答：“已经不能比这更好了！”他生来就会让人积极进取。
If an employee was having a bad day, Michael 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 Michael and asked him, "I don' t get it. You can' t be positive all the time. How do you do it?"
如果哪位雇员有天过得很糟糕，迈克尔会告诉他如何看待问题的积极一面。他的这种方式着实让我好奇，所以有一天我找到迈克尔问：“我真弄不明白。你怎么能总是那样积极乐观？你是如何做到这一点的？”
Michael replied, each morning I wake up and say to myself 'Mike, 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 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."
迈克尔回答说，“每天早晨醒来时我对自己说，‘迈克，今天你有两种选择。你可以选择心情愉快，你也可以选择心情恶劣。’我选择心情愉快。每次什么不愉快的事情发生时，我可以选择成为一个牺牲品，也可以选择从中吸取教训。我选择从中吸取教训。每次有什么人找我来抱怨，我可以选择接受他们的抱怨，也可以选择向他指出生活的积极面。我选择指出生活的积极面。”
"Yeah, right. It isn't that easy." I protested.
“是的，不错。可并不那么容易呀。”我表示异议。
"Yes it is, " Michael 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 mood. The bottom line is: It's your choice how you live life. " I reflected on what Michael said.
“其实很容易，”迈克尔说。“生活就是选择。从每一事物剔除一切枝节后剩下的都是一种选择。你选择如何应付生活中的种种情形。你选择他人会怎样影响你的情绪。你选择是心情愉快还是心情恶劣。说到底：如何生活是你自己的选择。”我琢磨着迈克尔的这席话。
Soon thereafter, I left the big enterprise that I had worked in for years to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often though about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Several years later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communications tower.
那以后不久，我离开了工作数年的大企业去创建自己的公司。我们失去了联系，但当我对生活做出一种选择而非对它做出反应时，我时常想起迈克尔。几年之后，我听说迈克尔遭遇一场恶性事故，从一座通讯大楼的60英尺高处掉了下来。 I think everyone should be in a good mood. If you always were in a bad mood, you could lost your confidence and your life couldn't be better compared to others. As a matter of fact, everybody is at the same starting point. If you falied at the same starting point, you would not be successful. i only look understand a fat lot demand endeavor [b]回复 [url=http://bbs.tingroom.com/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=433211&ptid=205434]2#[/url] [i]亿思绪[/i] [/b]
Keep yourself in good mood all time. I think If everyone can keep a good mood on everyday，we will be worth spending the time .（这句话有毛病就帮我改） [b]回复 [url=http://bbs.tingroom.com/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=433272&ptid=205434]5#[/url] [i]zst1[/i] [/b]
Keep a good mood everyday. Not "on everyday"
We will be worth spending time. 是什么意思，与前句的if假设句似乎没有什么联系。 谢谢！！！！！ [b]回复 [url=http://bbs.tingroom.com/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=434028&ptid=205434]7#[/url] [i]zst1[/i] [/b]
