Understand them and Avoid smlint at them. - Deepstash

Understand them and Avoid smlint at them.

  1. Don't demand compliance. For example, telling someone who's upset to be quiet and calm down will just make him or her irate. Instead, ask the person what they are upset about—and allow them to vent.
  2. Saying, "I understand," usually makes things worse. Instead, say, “Tell me more so I can understand better.”
  3. Avoid smiling, as this may look like you are mocking the person. Similarly, humor can sometimes lighten the mood, but more often than not, it’s risky and it may backfire.
