A couple of years ago, I learned this lesson. That day, I took a taxi to 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 and missed the other car’s back end by just inches!

The driver of the other car, who almost caused a big accident, got out of his car and started yelling bad words at us. The 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 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 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 agree, they’ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump their problems on you, don’t take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You’ll be happy at what you do.

I started thinking, how often do I let garbage trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people? That day I said, “I’m not going to do that anymore.”

What about you? What will happen in your life if you let more garbage trucks pass you by? Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets.
