A disagreement isn’t as polarized as you think. Both sides are partially right and partially wrong. Underscore these and a face-off grows more reflective.
How is anyone supposed to know you’re upset? Exasperated sighs don’t cut it. Speak up. It makes life a whole lot easier.
Conventional wisdom says stay put, but then convention doesn’t always work well with unexpected developments. Be more spontaneous.
You’re taken aback when a colleague corrects you. Did you miscalculate? Given that Mercury is square Neptune, chances are it’s the colleague.
Don’t say yes just to accommodate demanding types. You won’t do them (or yourself) any favors. Conviction, not pacification, is needed now.
Don’t extend the benefit of the doubt because this time it’s the other party who’s remiss. It’s up to them to win back your trust.
