The key to happiness is how quickly you can get back your focus on what`s important.
——Anonymous
Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Here`s what happened. I hopped in a taxi,and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when,all of a sudden,a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes,skidded,and missed the other car`s back end by just inches!
The driver of the other car,who almost caused a big accident,started yelling bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean,he was friendly. So,I said,"Why did you just do that?This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!"And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck. "
Many people are like garbage (rubbish)trucks. They run around full of garbage,full of frustration, full of anger,and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up,they need a place to dump it. And if you let them,they`ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you,don`t take it personally. You just smile,wave,wish them well,and move on. You`ll be happy with what you did.
I started thinking,how often do I led Garbage Trucks run right over me?And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work,at home,or on the streets?It was that day I said,"I`m not going to do anymore. "
Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day. What about you?If you let more garbage trucks pass you by,you`ll be happier. Life`s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So,Love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don`t.

The second enemy we face is indecision(優(yōu)柔寡斷). Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise.It will steal your chances for a better future.Take a sword to this enemy.
The third enemy inside is doubt.Sure,there’s room for healthy skepticism.You can’t believe everything.But you also can’t let doubt take over.Many people doubt the past, doubt the future,doubt each other,doubt the government,doubt the possibilities and doubt the opportunities. , they doubt themselves.I’m telling you,doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success.It will empty both your bank account and your heart.Doubt is all enemy.Get rid of it.
The fourth enemy within is worry.We’ve all got to worry some.Just don’t let it conquer you.Instead, let it alarm you.Worry can be useful.If you step off the curb (路邊) in New York City and a taxi is coming,you’ve got to worry.But you can’t let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small coffer.Here’s what you’ve got to do with your worries:drive them into a small corner. Whatever is out to get you,you’ve got to get it.Whatever is pushing on you, you’ve got to push back.
The fifth enemy is overcaution. It is the timid (膽小的) approach to life.Timidity is not a virtue;it’s all illness.If you let it go,it’ll conquer you.Timid people don’t get promoted.They don’t advance and grow and become powerful in the marketplace.You’ve got to avoid overcaution.
