Don’t make ultimatums if you haven’t the clout to back them up. Posturing isn’t an effective means of getting what you want, but persuasion may be.
Don’t take “not interested” for an answer. Alter a few details in your original presentation and you’ll convince parties that they’re looking at it for the first time.
Avoiding a confrontation may be worse than just having it out. Say what you have to say as matter-of-factly as possible.
You and a loved one stand a good chance of getting back on the same page if you’re willing to let bygones be bygones.
You could get confrontational, but your greatest strength has always been humor. Bowl ’em over with your bonhomie!
A lucky break comes with a catch. No worries. It may not be as good as you hoped, but it still beats what you had.
