When you think you have a person completely figured out, you narrow down what
that person can or can't be in your mind. Then, when they do or say something
that is out of character in your narrow definition, it can make you feel suspi
cious or mistrusting of them - simply because what they did or said does not f
all within your idea of who they are. If this sounds familiar because you have
been surprised by someone's behavior, consider that there may be more to them
than you realized - and it may be quite positive.
当你认为你对某个人完全地了解,你窄化了那个人可以或者是不能做什么。
于是,当他们做什么或者是说什么超出你窄化他们性格的定义时,
它可能会让你感到多疑的或者是不信任他们 -
只因为他们所做的或者是所说的不符合你所认知到的他们。
如果这个听起来很熟悉,因为你曾经惊讶某个人的行为,
请考虑他们也许比你认知的可以做得更多,
这听起来相当的正面。
