《汉书·于定国传》云：“其决疑平法，务在哀鳏寡，罪疑从轻，加审慎之心。”我们身边是不是经常出现这样一类人，TA 似乎不太热情，似乎有所保留。在讨论工作的时候，TA 往往不是最具有创意的那一个，但是，TA 总能一语中的的指出项目中被忽略的漏洞，被忽略的潜在风险。TA 平常不太喜欢夸人，也不太喜欢被人夸奖。但是经过 TA 打磨的任务总是特别令人放心。这一类人，所具有的的天赋就是，审慎。审慎，周密而慎重。

本节课 Q 老师将带大家解读这类具有审慎天赋的人，并给出如何与这类人打交道的建议。

DELIBERATIVE

You are careful. You are vigilant(警惕). You are a private person.

You know that the world is an unpredictable place. Everything may seem in order, but beneath the surface  事实上 you sense the many risks. Rather than denying these risks, you draw each one out into the open. Then each risk can be identified确认, assessed,检测 and ultimately reduced.减少

Thus, you are a fairly serious person who approaches life with a certain reserve.(持保留态度) For example, you like to plan ahead so as to anticipate what might go wrong. You select your friends cautiously 谨慎 and keep your own counsel (保密)when the conversation turns to personal matters. You are careful not to give too much praise and recognition, lest(以免) it be misconstrued. (扭曲)

If some people don't like you because you are not as effusive(热情洋溢) as others, then so be it. For you, life is not a popularity contest(取悦别人的竞赛). Life is something of a minefield. (雷区)  Others can run through it recklessly(不顾一切的) if they so choose, but you take a different approach. You identify the dangers, weigh their relative impact判断各自的影响, and then place your feet deliberately谨慎. You walk with care.
