高情商的表现
不苛求完美
Emotionally intelligent people won't set perfection as their target because they know that it doesn't exist. Human beings, by our very nature, are fallible.
高情商的人不会把完美当成自己追逐的目标,因为他们知道完美是不存在的。犯错是人类的本性。
When perfection is your goal, you're always left with a nagging sense of failure that makes you want to give up or reduce your effort. You end up spending your time lamenting what you failed to accomplish and what you should have done differently instead of moving forward, excited about what you've achieved and what you will accomplish in the future.
当你追求完美时,你总是会受到挫败感的困扰,这种挫败感会让你放弃或减少努力。最后你只会把时间都浪费在哀叹那些没能做成和本应做好的事情上,而不是继续前进,并对自己做成的事情和未来将要实现的事情而感到兴奋。
