Stop Taking Everything Personally

別把每件事太往心里去

People get offended about the strangest things.

人們會因為一些奇怪的事情感到被侵犯。

Take Kendrick Lamar's now-infamous verse on "Control" this summer: he called out a list of a dozen rappers he thinks he's better than (and he's right). The internet went crazy, and rappers all over the industry rushed to their mics to record a response.

就拿Kendrick Lamar這個夏天備受爭議的歌曲《Control》為例：他在歌詞中挑釁了一些他認為比他弱的說唱歌手(的確是這樣)，一石激起千層浪，整個說唱界的歌手都蜂擁錄歌作為回擊。

The thing is, all K-Dot said is he's the best rapper. Everyone took it personally, and that's exactly what he was going for.

重點在于，所有的人都認為自己是最好的說唱者，每個人都更看重自己，這就是他的目的所在。

The lesson to learn from this is that not everything is about you, and if you're easily upset, someone will use that to their advantage。

這件事教給我們的無非就是不是所有的事都要圍著你轉，如果你是玻璃心，有人會利用這一點。
