In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh(法老) treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his was cut off.
Shades of that spirit spread over today’s conversations. Once a friend and I up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. We were walking light heartedly out the door, picnic basket in hand, a neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, _ _ day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain.” I wanted to him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, for his smile.
Several months ago I was to catch a bus. As I put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter , the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh that bus five minutes ago. “ Dreams of head-cutting!
It’s not the that makes someone angry, it’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered. Everyone must bad news from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper . A doctor advising a patient that she need an operation does it in a caring way. A boss an employee he didn’t get the job a sympathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.
Unfortunately, many people are not of this. When youare tired a long flight, has a hotel clerk said that your room isn’t ready yet? It makes you as want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.
Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warming. Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded(被轰炸的）person is sure to have.
