7. You cannot be popular with everybody
你無法取悅每個(gè)人

只不過是個(gè)化學(xué)反應(yīng)而已。在職場上有些人會(huì)惹惱你,有些人會(huì)讓你抓狂,有些人對你絲毫起不到幫助作用。你可以采取一些規(guī)避策略以減少對你的影響?朔切┎焕绊懴硎苣愕暮门笥雅惆橹愕拿篮脮r(shí)光。

你要從失敗中學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)驗(yàn)教訓(xùn)

每個(gè)人都有搞砸的時(shí)候,人生不可能始終完美無缺。每次遭遇災(zāi)難你不要責(zé)怪自己,自己想辦法如何避免落入陷阱或做個(gè)比較好的計(jì)劃。這樣你可以從失敗中學(xué)習(xí)一些人生的經(jīng)驗(yàn)教訓(xùn)。
9. Nobody else will praise you
沒有人會(huì)表揚(yáng)你

Nobody wants to be stalked by debt or creditors. You have to work out how best to stay within your budget. Think of ways to save, like having packed lunches. Never go shopping without a list.

沒人愿意債務(wù)纏身或成為欠債的人,生活開支費(fèi)用最好不要超出預(yù)算。想辦法節(jié)省一下預(yù)算,像午飯吃便當(dāng);去購物時(shí)拉一個(gè)清單,避免沖動(dòng)購物;盡量用現(xiàn)金消費(fèi),把信用卡放在家里,因?yàn)樾庞每ㄏM(fèi)起來沒有概念。

如果你的表現(xiàn)不好、粗魯或冒險(xiǎn),那么你就得對你的所作所為完全負(fù)責(zé)。你要為你的行為負(fù)責(zé)。從人生大舞臺(tái)上學(xué)到另外一個(gè)嚴(yán)酷的現(xiàn)實(shí)教訓(xùn)!承擔(dān)后果不是責(zé)備他人,自己要對傷害性的所作所為道歉。
