How Smart People Deal with People They Don’t Like
如何巧妙应对讨厌的人?
They allow space between them.
保持距离
If all else fails, smart people allow space between themselves and those they don’t like. Excuse yourself and go on your way. If at work, move to another room or sit at the other end of the conference table. With a bit of distance, perspective, and empathy, you may be able to come back and interact both with those people you like and those you don’t like as if unfazed .
如果以上这些都没法做到,那么聪明的人会选择与他们不喜欢的人保持距离。给自己找个理由,继续保持自己的风格。如果在工作中遇到不喜欢的人,那么就搬到别的办公室,或者在开会时相互坐得远一点。保持一些距离,带有一些洞察力和同理心,你会发现,无论是喜欢的人还是不喜欢的人,你都可以与其顺畅交流。
Of course, everything would be easier if we could wish people we don’t like away. Too bad we all know that’s not how life works.
当然,如果我们不喜欢的人能够自动消失,那么所有的事情都会变得简单。但不幸的是,这往往并不是真实的生活。
