Who’s responsible?
You are at least 30% responsible for any given conflict in your relationships (John Gottman).
🔗 Show openness and check defensiveness
🔗 Understand and accept your contribution to the conflict
🔗 Sometimes, just saying ‘ok, I think I understand’ can put a stop to escalation
While these things can be very challenging and sometimes painful to do, they can have a powerful impact in healing relationships.
Seek therapy and learn how to reconcile and repair conflicts rather than dragging them on.
