Fighting fair.
In dealing with conflict, use words wisely/prudently, avoid attacking the person, and deal with current issue instead getting a historical list of grievances ready to rattle off.
My natural tendency is to avoid the conflict or throw the towel in too early to really resolve the issue.
Most important: commitment to be open-minded. I will maintain respect for the other person and try to see their perspective.
Who do I need to resolve a conflict with? If I had one month to live, I would more intent on resolving a conflict that is threatening a relationship.
Heart attitude to choose: keep my relationships clear.
Relationships are hard work. They are the source of most joys and pain in life.
