Differentiation
分化是当你情感和/或身体上与别人——尤其是当这些人对你日益重要——的时候维持自我的能力。当爱人、朋友和家人向你施压要你同意和顺从时,分化使你能坚持走自己的路。分化好的人能同意他人,同时又没有‘失去自己’的感觉,他们也能不同意他人,并且不会感到被疏远和难受。
Differentiation is your ability to maintain your sense of self when you are emotionally and/or physically close to others—especially as they become increasingly important to you. Differentiation permits you to maintain your own course when lovers, friends, and family pressure you to agree and conform. Well-differentiated people can agree without feeling like they’re ‘losing themselves,’ and can disagree without feeling alienated and embittered.
