Five Ways to Win Over Everyone in the Office

五招让你“征服”所有同事

Is it possible to like everyone in your office? Think about how tough it is to get together 15 people, much less 50, who all get along perfectly. But unlike in friendships, you need coworkers. You work with them every day, and you depend on them just as they depend on you. Here are some ways that you get the whole offi your side.

你可能做到喜欢办公室的所有同事吗？想想集齐十五个彼此融洽相处的人有多难，更别说五十个。但(同事关系)和朋友关系不同，同事于你是必需的。你每天和他们一起工作，你依赖他们，正如他们也依赖你。以下这些方法能让你赢得整个办公室的好感。

41. Reveal, don't hide, information

If you have a boo pick with someone in your workpce, you may try to stay tight-lipped around them. But you won’t be helpiher one of you. A Harvard Business School study found that observers sistently rated those who were upfront about themselves more highly, while those who hid lost trustworthiness. The lesson is not that you should make your personal life an open book, but rather, when giveion to offer up details about yourself or studiously stash them away, you should just be ho.

假如你对某位同事心存不满，你可能会尽量在其左右保持缄口不言。但这样对双方都没好处。哈佛商学院的一项研究发现，观察者总是会对坦承自我的人评价更高，而隐瞒的人则会失去信任。其中道理并不是说你应该将个人生活坦露无遗，而是说面对“坦承个人细节”还是“费力将其隐瞒”的选择之时，你应该做的恰恰是诚实。

42. Slow down and listen

Just as important as being ho about yourself is beiive to others. We oftehe o tell others how we feel, whether it's a about a project, a stray thought, or a pliment. Those are all valid, but you o take time to hear out your coworkers, too. In fact, rushing to get your own ideas out there cause colleagues to feel you don’t value their opinions. Do your best to engage coworkers in a genuine, bad-forth versation, rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.

和“坦承自己”同样重要的是“倾听他人”。我们常会觉得有必要把自己的感觉——无论是对某个项目的担忧，是一闪而过的想法，还是一种赞美之情——告诉他人。这些都非常重要，但你也需要花时间来细心听取同事的想法。确切而言，急于一股脑说出自己的观点会让同事以为你不重视他们的意见。尽你所能让同事们参与到一场真正的、轮流发表看法的对话之中，而不是把自己的想法放在第一位。

43. Spend time with everyone

It's on to have a “cubicle mate” or special fidant in a work setting. But in addition to those trusted coworkers, you should expand your horizons and find out about all the people around you. Use your lund coffee breaks to meet up with colleagues you don’t always see. Find out about their lives and is beyond the job. It requires minimal effort and goes a long way. This will help to grow your internal work, in addition to being a nice break in the work day.

工作中，我们常会有一位“办公室朋友”或特别的知己。但除了那些信赖的同事，你还应拓宽范围，去了解周围每一个人。利用午餐或咖啡时间去结识那些不常碰面的同事吧。了解他们工作以外的生活和兴趣。这费不了多少功夫，却会对你大有裨益。它不仅是工作日中很棒的短暂休息，还将有助于你拓展内部人脉。

44. Give pliments,just not too many

Positive feedback is important for ao hear. And you don’t have to be someone’s boss to tell them they did an exceptional job on a particur project. This will help engender good will in others. But don't overdo it or be fake about it. Oudy found that people responded best to ents that shifted from ive to positive, possibly because it suggested they had won somebody over.

听到积极反馈对于任何人都很重要。你不一定非得是某人的老板，才能告诉他在某一项目上表现得非常优秀。这将有助于引发他人的善意。但不要做过头，也不要假意奉承。一项研究发现，人们最喜欢那些起初为负面、而后转为正面的评价，可能因为这表明他们赢得了某人的认可。

45. Tailor" your iions

This one may be a bit more difficult to pull off, but it go a long way to achievis. Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from an iion. Watch out for how they verbalize with others. Some people like small talk in a meeting before digging into important matters, while others are more straightforward. Jokes that work on one person won’t necessarily nd with another. So, adapt your style accly to type. sider the person that you’re dealing with in advand what will get you to your desired oute.

这或许做起来更困难一些，但确实能大大助你取得实效。和任何同事打交道时，都要记住他们所喜欢的互动方式。留意他们如何与他人进行言语交流。有些人会面时喜欢先闲聊，再探讨重要问题，而有些人则更为直接。对某个人管用的笑话对另一个人不一定奏效。所以，要根据(对象)类型相应地调整你的(互动)风格。提前想想你将要打交道的是个什么样的人，以及你要怎么做才能获得想要的结果。

It's almost impossible to gh life without experieng some kind of failure. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.

人的一生几乎不可能不经受某些失败。但是，失败的奇妙之处在于，它完全取决于我们如何看待它。

We choose to see failure as “the end of the world”. Or, we look at failure as the incredible learning experiehat it often is. Every time we fail at something, we choose to look for the lesson we’re meant to learn. These lessons are very important; they’re how we grow, and how we keep from making that same mistake again. Failures stop us only if we let them.

我们可以把失败看作“世界末日”。我们也可以将它视为极好的学习经历，它常常就是如此。每一次失败时，我们都可以从中找寻应该吸取的教训。这些教训非常重要；它们使我们成长，也使我们不再犯同样的错误。只有任由失败阻止我们，我们才会被它阻止。

Failure also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learherwise. For instance, failure help you discover how strong a person you are. Failing at something help you discover your truest friends, or help you find ued motivation to succeed.

失败也能教给我们一些有关我们自己的事情，没有失败，这些事情我们永远不会了解。比如，失败可以帮你发现自己有多么坚强。失败可以帮你发现最真诚的朋友，或者帮你找到意想不到的成功动力。
