The author had a friend his name was Jerry.He thought that Jerry was a guy that you love to hate as he had always a positive reply to whatever you said.Jerry was a unique manager because he had several waiters following him from restaurant to restaurant.They followed him because of his positive attitude. He was a natural motivator.When ever he makes a decision he always ask himself two question,a positive and a negative one and he would always chose the positive one.He thought the author that life is full of choices and we are free to make our own choices.After the author left the restaurant business,he lost contact with Jerry.Several years later, the author heard that Jerry left the back door open one morning and he was held up at the gunpoint at three armed robbers.Out of nervousness,Jerry slipped the combination.the robbers panicked and shot him.Luckily a relative found him and was quickly rushed to the hospital.He survived the situation but unfortunately a scar was left of the incident.The author learned from Jerry that every day we have the choice to live and to die.After all,you have the choice and attitude is everything!

I think that Jerry made a very good choice in choosing to live instead of die despite of the odds stacked against him.I feel that we all should follow Jerry positive mental attitude and make the right choice at the right time.Although being positive is good its sometime good to be negative!

Do you think Jerry's attitude is good? What can we learn from him?
