20.Jerry was a unique manager because he had several 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 don't get it!You can't 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.The bottom line:It's your choice how you live life."I reflected on what Jerry said.Later,I left the restaurant industry to start my own business.We lost touch,but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life.
Several years later,I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business:he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers.While trying to open the safe,he forgot the password,nervous.The robbers panicked and shot him.Luckily,Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital.After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care,Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments(碎片) of the bullets still in his body.
I saw Jerry about six months after the accident.When I asked him how he was,he replied,"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door,"Jerry replied."Then,as I lay on the floor,I remembered that I had two choices:I could choose to live,or I could choose to die.I chose to live.""Weren't you scared?Did you lose consciousness?"I asked.Jerry continued,"The doctors and nurses were great.They kept telling me I was going to be fine.But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses,I got really scared.I knew I needed to take action."
"What did you do?"I asked."Well,there was a big,strong nurse shouting questions at me,"said Jerry."She asked if I was allergic (过敏的)to anything."Yes,"I replied.The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply.I took a deep breath and yelled,"Bullets!"Over their laughter,I told them."I am choosing to live.Operate on me as if I am alive,not dead."
Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors,but also because of his amazing attitude.I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.

10.At just six years old,Joey Kilpatrick is Australia's unofficial hide-and-seek(捉迷藏)champion after he hid in a bedroom cupboard for eight hours while playing his favorite game,causing a big rescue operation.
     The determined little boy's disappearing act led to a careful search,including nice police officers,five State Emergency Service volunteers,tracker dogs and almost all of the people of the town of Goombungee.

"I called the two boys for dinner,"Chris says."After about 20 minutes I started to worry,I was shouting to Joey,‘OK,we can't find you,time to come out!'"
     But there was no sign of her little boy.Within minutes of Chris calling the police,the policemen started one of the biggest ground searches in the town's history.
"I was really frightened.I rang my husband,Kris,who works out of town,and he immediately hit the road,calling me every 10 minutes."Chris recalls."They searched the house from top to bottom; everyone was out looking for him.When a neighbor asked if I'd checked the water tank,that's when reality hit.I was afraid."

Senior officer,Chris Brameld,from Goombungee police,says he is glad that Joey's game had a happy ending:"When we realized he was safe,we agreed that it didn't get much better than that!"
    And young Joey promises that next time he won't be so intent(专注于) on finding the best hiding place."I want to say sorry to the policemen and to Mummy for scaring them,"he says,"I promise next time I'll hide where they can find me and I won't fall asleep!"
