　　Screwing up is part of life. Even great geniuses make mistakes. When you do screw up, however, whats important isnt the screwup (thats history) but what you do afterward. Heres a step-by-step approach:

職場(chǎng)英語：四步教你輕松做好危機(jī)處理

　　生活中總有時(shí)候我們會(huì)把事情搞砸，即使是天才也會(huì)犯錯(cuò)誤。但是重要的不是搞砸的事情(那已經(jīng)是過去式了)而是之后你該如何做。下面是具體步驟：

　　1. Take a deep breath.

　　1. 深呼吸。

　　The moment you realize youve made a big mistake is usually not the best time to take action to correct it. Any action you take when youre in panic mode is likely to make the problem worse.

　　當(dāng)你意識(shí)到自己犯錯(cuò)的時(shí)候絕不是改正錯(cuò)誤的最佳時(shí)機(jī)。任何在焦慮情況下做的事通常只會(huì)讓事情更糟。

　　For example, suppose you blurt out in a meeting with your boss and Customer A that your company gave Customer B a huge discount. You immediately realize that bringing up that discount means Customer A will probably demand a similar discount.

　　假設(shè)你不小心在老板和客戶A的會(huì)議上說出你們公司給客戶B很大的折扣，你馬上意識(shí)到提到折扣會(huì)讓客戶A也提出相同要求。

　　Trying to recover on the spot is a bad idea. If you tell the customer, "Of course, big discounts arent our usual policy," youll only call more attention to the discount. Same thing if you apologize to your boss the moment the two of you leave the meeting.

　　試圖馬上彌補(bǔ)絕不是個(gè)好主意。如果你告訴客戶A：“當(dāng)然我們一般不會(huì)提供較大的折扣。”只會(huì)將大家的注意力再次轉(zhuǎn)移到折扣上來。會(huì)議結(jié)束后馬上向老板道歉也是一樣的。

　　So take a deep breath, shake yourself out, maybe go for a short walk. Get a little distance from the situation before you react.

　　所以深呼吸，清醒一下，出去散個(gè)步。在你做出反應(yīng)之前離開一段時(shí)間。

　　2. Take a dose of perspective.

　　2. 長遠(yuǎn)地看待問題

　　Although your blunder may seem monumental to you, it may be far less significant to the other people involved.

　　也許你犯的錯(cuò)誤對(duì)你自己很重要，但對(duì)其他相關(guān)的人來說就沒那么重要了。

　　If your mistake is uncharacteristic, chances are that people who already know you will simply put it down to your having a bad day. That doesnt mean you dont need to make amends, but the situation may be less dire than you assume.

　　如果你的錯(cuò)誤不典型，很可能了解你的人知道之后不會(huì)再提起這件事，畢竟你這一天都不太好過。但這不意味著你不需要彌補(bǔ)，只是結(jié)果可能沒你想得那么糟。

　　3. Do a reality check.

　　3. 檢驗(yàn)實(shí)際影響。

　　Now that youve gotten some distance and perspective, revisit your blunder with the other people who witnessed it. Find out how much damage has been done by putting your inquiry in the form of a question, like:

　　冷靜下來仔細(xì)思考后，你需要回訪一下看見你犯錯(cuò)的人。問一些問題，找出自己的錯(cuò)誤到底造成了多大傷害，比如：

　　"John, when I reacted negatively to your idea earlier today, I think I might have been overly harsh. I want to make certain you know that Im not trying to be a pill and that my heart is in the right place."

　　“約翰，今天我對(duì)你的想法反應(yīng)很消極，也許我過分了一點(diǎn)。我想確定你了解我不是要反對(duì)，而且我是出于好心。”

　　Reality checks are best delivered via email rather than in person, because email gives everyone the opportunity to cool down.

　　回訪最好通過郵件而不是面對(duì)面進(jìn)行，因?yàn)猷]件給了每個(gè)人冷靜的機(jī)會(huì)。

　　4. Apologize and address the blowback.

　　4. 道歉并處理后續(xù)問題。

　　The response that you get from your reality check in the previous step lets you gauge what youll need to do to get beyond the mistake. For example, if the response is something like "You screwed up badly, you jerk," some groveling may be in order.

　　根據(jù)從他人那得到的反饋，你就可以知道自己應(yīng)該如何做才能彌補(bǔ)。如果你得到的回應(yīng)是“你搞砸了，混蛋”，也許你就該低頭認(rèn)錯(cuò)了。

　　On the other hand, if the response is more like "Yeah, I was offended/angry/surprised, but its no big deal," your apology can be more perfunctory:

　　但是如果回應(yīng)是“對(duì)啊，當(dāng)時(shí)我感覺被冒犯了/很生氣/很吃驚，但是沒什么大不了的，”你的道歉就可以相對(duì)草率一點(diǎn)：

　　"John, Im really sorry that I overreacted and would like to meet with you to apologize in person and make a commitment to never allow myself to act that way in the future."

　　“約翰，我非常抱歉自己反應(yīng)過度了，我想當(dāng)面和你道個(gè)歉并保證自己再不會(huì)這樣了。”

　　Shortcut: When youve screwed up

　　速成方法：當(dāng)你搞砸了

　　DONT try to fix things immediately; take some time to think.

　　不要馬上彌補(bǔ);先思考。

　　REMEMBER that eventually nobody will care what happened.

　　記住最后可能沒人關(guān)心發(fā)生了什么。

　　FIND out how seriously you screwed up.

　　找出你犯的錯(cuò)到底有多嚴(yán)重。

　　MAKE apologies but focus on fixing the results.

　　道歉但是著重彌補(bǔ)結(jié)果。
