8. Trying to please other people is largely a futile activity. Everyone will be mad at you sometime.Most of the people you deal with will dislike, disparage, belittle, or ignore what you say or do most of the time. Besides, you can never really know what others do want, so a good deal of whatever you do in that regard will go to waste. Be comforted. Those who love you will probably love you regardless, and they are the ones whose opinions are worth caring about. The rest aren’t worth five minutes of thought between them.

　　8。試圖取悅別人是徒勞無益的做法

　　總有些人會對你發飆。很多你接觸的人，在很多時候也會不喜歡、貶低、輕視或忽略你。另外，你永遠也不知道別人真正的需要，因此你為此所做的所有努力都會付諸東流。放松些吧，愛你的人終究會包容你的過失，他們才是值得我們在乎的人。其他那些人，他們甚至都不值得花5分鐘去考慮。
