Ways To Approach A Coversation

We go into conversations assuming there will be a disagreement, but if we shift our assumptions, we will experience a much better interaction:

  • Listen to both sides of a discussion. This doesn’t mean compromising your values or letting go of your perspective.
  • Think of your next discussion like an interview, rather than an opportunity to scream your opinions.
