Attacking the problem is less hurting than attacking the person. Perhaps taking out one faulty component of the person's personality reinforces the idea that people possess qualities, rather than that a person is made up of his/ her behaviour. So we all still have many other strengths to count even with this faulty part that can be extracted and corrected. Actually perhaps if you have a person's best interest in mind, you'd think about how they'll feel and find ways to soften the blow that might come down on them. So as commonly said, the key is to care about the other person's feelings by putting on their shoes.
Anw yesterday was the last day of work. Back to studies now (:
I was watching triumph to the skies yesterday night. tian1 xia4 mei2 you3 bu2 san4 zhi1 yan2 xi2 indeed. 2 weeks of work, mostly out of office but some in the organization itself too, and plus division christmas lunch and gift exchange yesterday. I'm learning basic things with regards to attitude that are crucial, especially how sustained positivity and enthusiasm is important when you have to drag your own tired body to work after the weekends. Hopefully I can apply that when I get back to school haha!
