Let people hash out their differences. Either they’ll exhaust themselves with all the fighting or see for themselves that the dispute isn’t worth it.
Let the wording of an agreement stand, because the terms that restrict you also protect you. You’re sacrificing too much for a minor inconvenience.
You meet with resistance, but don’t push this person. Invite him or her out to eat instead. A change of environs brings a change of heart.
Thoughts move a lot faster when you’ve got someone to bounce ideas off of, but make sure that your sounding board can keep up.
You can’t stop someone from doing what s/he wants, but if you try being more lenient then this person won’t stray.
A desired prize goes to a rival at work. Let it go. This has nothing to do with you and your job performance. It’s all about balancing the scales.
