Need

需要

可可电台

We all have needs in life. When you express those needs by email over and over again, it makes you look needy. I "need" you to come to work early, I "need" you to get that report done. Avoid saying "need" and express requirements more directly.

我们在生活中都有需求。当你重复在邮件中表达这些需求的时候,会使你看起来不自信。我’需要‘你早点来上班,我’需要‘你完成这份报告。不要说’需要‘,而是更直接的表达要求。

I need to buy expensive suits before I go to any job interview.

去面试前,我得买件贵点儿的西装。

I need to be sure there is no risk of getting turned down before I ask her out.

约她出来前,我得确保她不会拒绝我。

Need acts like a stalling tactic and a justification for failing. It's also a dream stopper. It's you setting up conditions—which are often unnecessary—for you to succeed. It’s better to try and fail, than to fail to try. The experience of engaging in an action or a relationship is far more important than the result. When you are not too attached to the results, you actually don't need much to start.

Need这个词就是梦想的终结者,它只会让人不断拖延想做的事,并且为失败寻找借口。失败了还可以继续再战,何必考虑那许多没用的条件?有时过程比结果更重要。当你不再纠结于结果时,你会发现其实你并不需要那么多的条件。
