Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter, rude boss, or an insensitive employee _36_ your day?‎ Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab．One day I was in a taxi and we headed 37 the airport．We were driving in the 38 lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us．My taxi driver slammed on（猛踩）his 39 , slid sideways, and at the very last moment our car stopped and 40 the other car by just inches ! The driver of the other car , the guy who almost caused a big accident, looked around and started 41 at us．‎ My taxi driver just 42 and waved at the guy．And I mean, he was 43 , so I said, "Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital! " This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck"．‎ ‎ He said, “ Many people are like garbage trucks．They run around full of 44 , full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment．As their garbage 45 up, they need a place to dump（丢弃,倾倒） it and sometimes they’ll dump it on _ 46 ． Don't take it personally; Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on．Believe me．You’ll be _47 ．"‎ So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and 48 it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said, "I don't want their garbage and I'm not going to spread it any more．”‎ Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with 49 . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what's__50_in your life. Roy Baumeister, a psychology researcher from Florida State University, found in his extensive ‎ research that you ‎5l bad things more often than good things in your life．You store the bad memories more easily, and you 52 them more frequently．So love the people who treat you right．Ignore the ones who don't．Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you 53 it ! The odds（情势，胜算）are against you when a Garbage Truck comes your way, but when you follow "The Law of the Garbage Truck", you take back control of your life．You make room for the good by 54 go of the bad．‎ Have a Garbage-Free Day ! Have a marvelous, garbage-free day !
