not only will people's respect for you grow, but you will also be happier. 不仅人们的尊重有利于你成长,但你也会更快乐。
When you hold back saying something negative about someone else—especially when given the opportunity-you exemplify self—control and concern for others. 当你对其他人说一些负面，特别是当给机会的时候，例证你的自控和关心他人。
Any fool can criticize, condemn2, and complain but it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving. 任何傻瓜都能批评、谴责和抱怨,但是更需要去理解和宽容。
Do not, however, confuse speaking of someone in a derogatory way with participating in a formal critique, 然而,参与正式的批判的时候，不要混淆贬损的方式说话的人,
such as job performance reviews or when you are asked to point out deficiencies for the purpose of helping3 someone improve in certain areas. 如工作表现评审或当你被要求指出缺陷为目的的帮助别人在某些领域改善。
In these instances, use tact4 and diplomacy5 to focus on performance issues and always avoid personal attacks. 在这些情况下,使用机智和外交关注的性能问题,总是避免人身攻击。
