Fight Right


Listen Later

Do you feel at a loss when it comes to conflict resolution, arguing and how to fight without causing each other pain, destruction, or

further disconnection


It’s inevitable - we're human beings - we're going to fight. Sometimes we allow ourselves to become so emotionally invested in a

heated argument that it becomes a full-fledged FIGHT... like Holyfield vs Tyson -- (minus the punches and violence) -- but with the

same amount of passion and hostility.  


Fighting in marriage, although inevitable, can cause great damage if both partners aren't well-schooled in conflict management, self

discipline, forgiveness, and compromise. Handling conflict the right way is an art, a skill if you will, and you can learn it at any point in life - if you desire and are willing to put forth the effort learning.


Fighting the right way (where you have successful communication with a healthy and productive outcome) involves several

elements.


In this episode, I define how to fight right: how to prevent big blow-up fights, how to stay focused on the specific subject of conflict,

how to have fruitful conversations, and the benefits of and why you need a post-argument ritual.
