Everyone wants to emerge victorious from even a trivial dispute. But this must be done wisely, that is, so that the dispute does not develop into a conflict with a subsequent quarrel.
But how can you defend your point of view if the situation is heating up and no one is going to give up their positions?
Experts have explained how to learn to argue profitably and avoid conflict.
The purpose of the dispute
1. It is necessary to understand that conflicts can be productive and unproductive.
That is, a person can start a verbal altercation simply for the sake of having nothing better to do, to vent emotions, express hostility, or get rid of negativity.
Taking part in such an argument will not benefit anyone.
2. If you are going to discuss a solution to a problem in this way, then you need to move towards a common opinion, and not argue or prove your superiority over your interlocutor.
3. Before you start a debate, think about how much time you can devote to it, decide with your opponent how the final decision will be made, and only then develop your thought.
Correct argument
The main thing is to understand the interlocutor and his position. Why he came to such a decision and whether his proposal can benefit you.
Then it remains to be convinced of the correctness of the opponent’s decision and the relevance of the information justifying his choice.
Try to anticipate the consequences of accepting his opinion.
Then consider what might happen if you refuse the offer and then explain to your opponent why you disagree with it.
Remember that when proving your point of view, you must use only facts, think logically and not make ultimatums.
But the most important rule of a dispute is mutual respect, otherwise the dispute may end in nothing.
