Near the very end of his life, and largely because he had no more lungs, he quit smoking. He gained a couple of pounds, but by then he was so s
3、lim that no one noticed. 我父亲死于穷人的疾病-肺炎。他咳嗽了这么多年，我想他的肺部已没有什么完好的地方了。去世前几年，他的呼吸已经很虚弱了，他总得倚靠着某个东西。我记得有一次全家聚会，当时我女儿才两岁，他抱了她一会儿，她让我有时间给他俩拍张照片。但是很明显，他是费了好大劲儿的。生命即将结束前，他才戒了烟，主要是因为他的肺功能已极度受损。戒烟后他的体重增加了好几磅，但当时他太瘦了，所以没人注意到这一点。2Though your parents probably meant your name to last a lifetime, remember that when

6、?” Eliot asks.“Thats very common in professional women. They feel they have to be all things to all people and do it all perfectly. They think, I should, I must, I have to. Good enough is never good enough. Perfectionists cannot delegate. They get angry that they have to carry it all, and they blow
7、their tops. Then they feel guilty and they start the whole cycle over again.”对许多人来说，压力的根源是愤怒，而对付愤怒的诀窍是找出怒从何来。埃利奥特问道：“这样愤怒是否来自这么一种感觉到：希望一切事物都必须完美无缺？”“这在职业女性中是很常见的原因。她们觉得要让人人感到她们无所不能，而且要把样样事情都做的完美无缺。她们认为，我应该这样，我必须这样，我不得不这样。追求完美无止境。完美主义者事必躬亲。他们生气是因为他们不得不把什么事情都扛在自己肩上，还为了发脾气。随后他们就感到内疚，接着他们就再把整个过程重复一遍。”4I
