Remember what started the argument?

Remember what you want, don't let your opponent confuse you. Some people, giving in to arguments, begin to remember the past, move on to other topics, threaten, and persuade. Don't let them do this, don't get distracted, stay calm. There is no need to make excuses and explain if the interlocutor is deaf to your words. It is better to speak briefly and to the point - exactly the thing that your opponent needs to understand and hear. When the other side understands that bickering is useless, they will abandon the argument.

Control yourself

Don't let your emotions take over you. Even if you are hot-tempered, try to control yourself, inner peace is important. At first, this is difficult to do; yoga, meditation, and various types of sports activities help. There is no need to tease your interlocutor, especially if it is a close person.

If he is inadequate and does not control himself, makes noise and screams, join his condition. Raises the tone - raise it too, but without insults, accusations, irritation and anger. It is better to react unexpectedly for him - for example, to support him. Control your anger - if uncontrolled, it will lead to mistakes and loss in an argument.

Consider the situation

We need to react to conflicts differently. It’s one thing if in front of you is an arrogant trade employee, another is a marginalized person, embittered by everything, and the third is an unreasonable relative trying to defend his opinion. We are writing a complaint against the first, the second deserves pity, only the last will have to be tinkered with.

If a person is important to you, do not develop a conflict. Remind him that you used to get along well and that communication was enjoyable. Speak sincerely, falsehood is not difficult to detect, it will only aggravate the situation. Emphasize that you treat him with respect. This will help you stay calm and not ruin your relationship. Express your feelings through simple and calm expression of your emotions. The interlocutor will be embarrassed.

Calm down quickly

If you have already started to “boil” and feel that the provocateur is getting his way, try doing one of the simple things. Take a few deep breaths in and out. Count to ten to yourself. Remember that your reaction depends only on you. The main thing is to prevent emotional imbalance and mentally distract yourself from the situation. Only a cold look at things and the arguer will help you make the right decision, which will not make you regret your rash actions in the future.
