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 would be twins!' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He was a natural motivator. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If an employee was having a bad day, John was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up and asked him, 'I don't get it!' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'You can't be a positive person all of the time.  How do you do i t?' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He replied, 'Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today.  You can choose to be in a good mood or...you can choose to be in a bad mood &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I choose to be in a good mood.' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Yeah, right, it's not that easy,' I protested. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Yes, it is,' he 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 affect your mood. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood.  The bottom line:  It's your choice how you live your life.' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I reflected on what he said.  Soon hereafter, I left the Tower Industry to start my own business.  We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several years later, I heard that he was involved in a serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a communications tower. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, he was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw him about six months after the accident. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I asked him how he was, he replied, 'If I were any better, I'd be twins...Wanna see my scars?' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'The first thing that went through my mind was the well-being of my soon-to-be born daughter,' he replied.  'Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices:  I could choose to live or...I could choose to die.  I chose to live.' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Weren't you scared?  Did you lose consciousness?'  I asked. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He continued, '...the paramedics were great. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They kept telling me I was going to be fine.  But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared.  In their eyes, I read 'he's a dead man'.  I knew I needed to take action.' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'What did you do?' I asked. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me,' said John.  'She asked if I was allergic to anything 'Yes, I replied.'  The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply.  I took a deep breath and yelled, 'Gravity'' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over their laughter, I told them, 'I am choosing to live.  Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead.' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He 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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attitude, after all, is everything. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have two choices now: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  Delete this &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  Forward it to the people you care about. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know the choice I made.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4473315619761911619-8263404605861950334?l=bks2plz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bks2plz.blogspot.com/feeds/8263404605861950334/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bks2plz.blogspot.com/2009/11/here-is-some-inspiration-for-new.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4473315619761911619/posts/default/8263404605861950334'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4473315619761911619/posts/default/8263404605861950334'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bks2plz.blogspot.com/2009/11/here-is-some-inspiration-for-new.html' title='Here is some inspiration for New Authors'/><author><name>bks2plz</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06968409410257799494</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aIrpaP0Z9Xw/SphXv0ttLQI/AAAAAAAAAAY/aeGE9YjXAiw/S220/32.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4473315619761911619.post-1680305524407767151</id><published>2009-09-29T16:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-20T10:46:22.205-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gifts teen'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='YA books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sci-Fi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='birthday gifts'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='employee gift'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Xmas gift'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Amazon books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gift ideas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='co-worker gifts'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Releases'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='christain books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fantasy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Christmas gift'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BN books'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4473315619761911619-1680305524407767151?l=bks2plz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bks2plz.blogspot.com/feeds/1680305524407767151/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bks2plz.blogspot.com/2009/09/blog-post.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4473315619761911619/posts/default/1680305524407767151'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4473315619761911619/posts/default/1680305524407767151'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bks2plz.blogspot.com/2009/09/blog-post.html' title=''/><author><name>bks2plz</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06968409410257799494</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aIrpaP0Z9Xw/SphXv0ttLQI/AAAAAAAAAAY/aeGE9YjXAiw/S220/32.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4473315619761911619.post-2372625374839886175</id><published>2009-08-21T21:06:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-26T20:26:26.060-07:00</updated><title type='text'>New Author - Gateway to DreamWorld</title><content type='html'>Hi, I am a new author and my new fantasy novel, "Gateway to DreamWorld," has just been released.
