How do you manage to stay calm during an argument?

Staying calm during an argument is not an easy thing but I have been able to do it over the years and how I did it is what I will be sharing with you all today. Argument sometimes leads to fight and many other things and for that reason the only way to avoid it is to leave the scene of the event.

For me to stay calm during an argument all I do is to leave the scene of the event to a different place entirely. I don't stay in a place where there is an argument because I'm not the type that keeps quiet no matter how small the argument may look.

So in disciplining myself to this regards, I prefer to stay away from the scene of the incident because that alone will helpe to calm myself down and forget about the argument and that will also help us not to have a fight again.

Why is it important to listen carefully during a disagreement?

When there is disagreement, I don't speak I always keep quiet and then listen to others speak. Over the years I have learnt to listen more and talkless and this is because I have learnt not to make mistake in life.

So when I listen from people I will know the better way to approach them because I have heard about all the are arguing about and with their talks I will be able to know exactly the reason why they are arguing and then I can come in better.

So this is the main reason why I listen carefully during an argument so that I will know when to come in and what to say when I have the opportunity to talk during the argument.

How does understanding someone else's feelings help in resolving conflicts?

When you understand someone feelings you won't want to hurt the person because you will always put the person in your shoes. So when you understand someone's feeling you will easily resolve any issues because you will know what that person likes and the things he or she doesn't like.

So understanding ones feeling is like understanding yourself because you know what you want and what you don't want and you know what to say or do to yourself that you will feel happy and excited. So when we understand ones feeling it is better for us as we can resolve any issues or conflict easily.

What can we do to control our anger during an argument?

The principles I use currently is the best I can ever think of. Like I have said above when you are having an argument and it doesn't seems like coming to an end please just leave that place and go to another place where you can continue with your life.

So if you do this, you won't be hearing the talks about the argument which we lead you to forgetting the issues and there by controlling your anger. This is the main thing for me you can do to control your anger at all times.

There may be other ways to control once anger but for me the above mentioned means is the best for me. Thanks for reading through my publication today.
