1. Never say "but."
不要说“但是” 。
"A very smart woman I worked with once told me that if I eliminated the word 'but' from my professional vocabulary, I'd find greater acceptance for my ideas, and greater cooperation from my team members... The word 'but' negates everything that precedes it, and you cast a negative spin on anything you say when you use it... 'But' is exclusive and isolating; 'and' is inclusive and welcoming." —Quora user Marsha Browne
“和我一起工作的一位非常聪明的女士曾经告诉我,如果我把’但是’这个词从我的工作用语中去掉,那我的想法被别人接受的概率会更高,我的团队成员间的合作程度也会更好……‘但是’这个词把它之前的内容都否定了,当你用它的时候,你说的话都蒙上了消极的色彩……“但是”是排外的和孤立的;“并且”是包容的、受欢迎的。”——Quora用户布朗
