常言道,“近朱者赤,近墨者黑”,我们都被自己身处的圈子影响着。
已故的著名美国企业家吉姆·罗恩(Jim Rohn)有一句名言:
You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.
你是与你相处时间最多的5个人的平均。
LifeHack网站最近发了一篇文章,认为这世上有五种人,当敬而远之:
这五种有毒的人,你现在就要远离他们
作者说:
We only have a limited time to live a meaningful life. Toxic people slowly drain you of your vitality. The more energy you spend on them, the more stressed and empty you feel. We have all encountered such people, and some of us may have even been toxic people at some point in our lives.
我们只有有限的时间度过充满意义的人生。毒人会慢慢榨干你的生命力,你花在他们身上的精力越多,你的压力就会越大、也会越空虚。我们都遭遇过这样的人,甚至在生命中的某些节点,我们自己也当过这种有毒的人。
一起来看是哪五种人。
1、The Gossiper
八卦君
The gossiper make you feel like they are bringing you into the fold by sharing delicate information with you. It seems like all they do is gather and disperse chitchat about other people. However, this doesn't add value to your life, and if the gossiper will talk to you, you can be sure that they’re also talking about you to someone else.
八卦君们让你觉得,他们通过和你分享一些小道消息,好让你更加融入群体。他们好像成天都在八卦别人,然后散布出去。然而这不会给你的生活带来任何价值。如果八卦君们试图接近你,可以肯定他们也在跟别人谈论你的八卦。
This is the person at work that corners you during break time and talks badly about another coworker's performance. People see you together, and they may even label you as a gossiper just for being associated with this type of toxic person.
在工作中,这种人一般都会在休息时间来找你,跟你疯狂吐槽另一个同事的表现。人们要是看见你和这种人一起,他们甚至也会给你贴上“爱八卦”的标签,谁让你老和这种有毒的人厮混在一起呢?
2、The Manipuator
操纵狂
