"自我吸收会扼杀同理心,更不用说怜悯了。当我们专注于自己时,我们的世界会收缩,因为我们的问题和困扰变得巨大。但当我们专注于他人时,我们的世界会扩大。我们自己的问题会漂移到意识的边缘,看起来更小,并且我们增加了连接或富有同情心的行动的能力。"
— Daniel Goleman
Simplified Meaning:
Thinking only about yourself makes it hard to care about others. When you pay too much attention to your own problems, they seem bigger, and your world feels smaller. But if you think more about others, your world feels bigger, and your own troubles seem less important. This helps you feel more connected to others and act with kindness.
