I was recently invited to dinner by a friend. During the meal, the manager came over and said that our meal was free. He stood there at me, he seemed to know me. I asked if he knew me. He laughed and said I had probably _ him, but I had changed his life. He said that twelve years ago he was in stress management class. I asked the group what their number one stress was and of them, including him, said it was their .
He said I listened carefully and then took a chair and placed it in the center of the room. I on the chair for a few minutes and then I invited everyone to do the same. I wanted them to look at the room from there. After everyone had done it, I asked the group to think about how the room looked when they changed their perspective(角度).
Then I asked them to their bosses. Was this the same person who had seen their good__ and hired(雇佣) them? Do they remember how happy they were to be for the job? How did these wonderful people become terrible bosses?
He said I looked at him and asked if he had said thank you to his boss for the opportunity to make a living. He answered no.
He told me his changed that night. He went back to work with a card to his boss. He had been the manager for 8 years. He said he owed(把……归功于) it all to me: I had taught him to look at life from different perspectives and I had taught him to express gratitude(感激之情).
