@conflictish: Many people think they know how to fight. Many people also think they know how to communicate. Most can’t do either. Not because they’re weak, but because nobody trained them. The question isn’t whether you can fight or communicate. It’s whether you’ve been trained to do either well. #conflictresolution #conflictmanagement #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #communicationskills

You know the crazy part of all of this? Most of us know how to communicate, we know how to not lose our head, but when it comes to being in the moment, it’s like we are completely ignorant of any skills we have learned. I have to practice this often. I love your words.

Yanett Watson :

During arguments or conflict, the nervous system can become overwhelmed and the brain quite literally shifts into survival mode. In those moments, we move into fight-or-flight, which often causes people to stop truly listening… become defensive… emotionally shut down… say things they don’t genuinely mean… or grow cold and reactive. The hardest part of healthy communication is learning how to regulate yourself enough to respond instead of react. That’s why I loved the way you explained it… it’s about precision. The right words, spoken the right way, at the right moment. Remaining emotionally aware, composed, and fully in control of yourself even in emotionally charged situations.

Andrea Blas :

Please provide references on how to train and prepare prior to conflict situations

Matt Gillis :

The hardest skills are not always natural. We develop them through intentional practice and repetition. When we stop assuming and start training, we see strong results.

Red gina :

ZOE Yoga Lifestyle :

Such an important skill! Kung fu taught me so much about using and conserving energy. Just enough to get the job done.

Little Ordinary Things :

💕As I listened to this, I thought of Bruce Lee’s quote, “Be like water, my friend.” When you know what you’re doing, you don’t need to react emotionally. You adapt, stay calm, and respond with purpose. Sigh! The difficult part is that my default setting is not water.🙁😡🤯

gYoda :

How can we make improving communication a daily practice ?

Shanda Turner :

Man!!!! You ain’t never lied!

@Mario_demas :

Gabi dasSchaf 🐑 🌍 :

I just understood that keeping my composure is the first thing to keep me SIL in check. It's hard but it works. Screaming makes everything worse (she always wins that coz then she let's it out on my fam) and folding is not an option.

golden❌️ :

I've had a lot practice but hr makes me so frustrated that I immediately blow up! I guess i need more practice!

Auraya Selintah :

I think it’s that flight or fight response too
