Gary comes up with some great blogs and this on heated arguments is short and right to the point. One thing for sure is we can't win an argument in negotiations.

Good luck and success.

Heated ArgumentEspecially in negotiation in real estate as well obviously as in our personal relationships, heated arguments arise and it moves into anger. Anger has at its root fear, did you know that?

We should come to an understanding to

Take The Sting Out Of Heated Arguments.

While something is directed at you and you look at it as an attack and sure it feels like a sting with words, remember for the OTHER person they are often dealing with unresolved issues but the pain comes out directed at the other person. So easier said than done try to let the sting pass you by. And don't add fuel to the fire in stinging back.

Lou - The sentence, "We can't win an argument in negotiations," is very powerful.  I often think folks take far too adversarial a stance in negotiations, when cooperation would get both parties so much more.

Sometimes others are projecting something totally unrelated into the situation.  Sometimes it is best to take a minute and step back and shake it off realizing that it might not even be directed at you.
