Let me tell you a story.

我給你講個故事吧。

Last Sunday, a quiet afternoon turned chaotic.

上週日，一個平靜的下午變得混亂不堪。

My landlord, whom I had never met, eyes blazing with fury, burst through the door.

我從未見過的房東怒目圓睜，衝進門來。

He had no idea his wife rented the house to us.

他不知道他妻子把房子租給了我們。

As he yelled, I felt fear and confusion, but I sensed something deeper.

在他大喊大叫的時候，我感到了恐懼和困惑，但我感覺到了更深層次的東西。

Confusion and betrayal.

困惑與背叛

Taking a deep breath, I calmly asked my kids to go to their room.

我深吸一口氣，平靜地讓孩子們回房間去。

I invited him to sit and explained the misunderstanding.

我請他坐下，並向他解釋了誤會。

I can see that this is upsetting.

看得出來，這讓人很難過。

I would feel the same way if I were in your shoes.

如果我是你，我也會有同樣的感受。

Let's figure this out together, I said.

我說，我們一起想辦法吧。

Slowly, his anger diffused.

慢慢地，他的怒氣消散了。

It turned out his frustration was about feeling out of control.

原來，他的挫敗感是因為感覺無法控制自己。

This experience showed me the power of emotional intelligence, how we recognize, understand, and express our emotions.

這次經歷向我展示了情商的力量，即我們如何認識、理解和表達自己的情緒。

By understanding and naming emotions, I navigated the situation with compassion.

通過理解和命名情緒，我以同情之心駕馭了局面。

Remember, empathy and patience can turn conflicts into opportunities for connection.

記住，同理心和耐心可以將衝突轉化為建立聯繫的機會。

Next time you face anger, pause, breathe, and ask, What am I truly feeling?

下一次，當你面對憤怒時，請停下來，深呼吸，並問：我的真實感受是什麼？

You'll be amazed at the clarity it brings.

你會對它帶來的清晰度感到驚訝。
