Disagreements are inevitable. Everyone will eventually get into a disagreement with someone. After all, each one of us thinks differently from one another.
A disagreement can be positive, in that it can help you to understand and appreciate the other person's viewpoint, strengthening your friendship. Or a disagreement can be negative, in that, blinded by your own viewpoint, you refuse to understand and appreciate the other person's viewpoint, angering you, and possibly leading you to attack or murder the other
person.
When you find yourself in a disagreement with someone and notice that it's becoming heated, the following tips can help:
(1) Stop talking and start listening. Allow the other person to vent. He will eventually calm down.
(2) Change your body language and voice tone. Instead of tensely standing, sit down relaxedly slouching in a chair. Instead of yelling, speak softly and calmly. Your body language and voice tone will calm the other person down.
(3) If you find yourself becoming heated and can't calm yourself, leave the situation immediately! And don't come back until you are calm and in control.
