Around twenty years ago I was living in York. Though I had a lot of experience and a Master’s degree, I could not find     work.

I was     a school bus to make ends meet and living with a friend of mine, for I had lost my flat. I had   five interviews with a company and one day, between bus runs they called to say I did not get the job. “Why has my life become so     ?” I thought painfully.

As I pulled the bus over to     a little girl, she handed me an earring（耳环）saying that I should keep it    somebody claimed (认领) it. The earring was painted black and said “BE HAPPY”.

At first I got angry. Then it    me--I had been giving all of my    to what was going wrong with my experiences rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a   of fifty things I was happy with. Later, I decided to      more things to the list. That night there was a phone call for me from a lady who was a director at a large    . She asked me if I would give a one-day lecture on stress management to 200 medical workers. I said yes.

My day there went very well, and before long I got a well-paid job. To this day I know that it was because I changed my way of     that I completely changed my life.
