Stop fighting, everyone is right

We have all experienced confrontations with another person. And it always ends the same way. Two people pissed off at each other because someone didn’t get what they wanted. It’s usually the case right? When I can’t get the other person to do what I want, to share my view on something, to treat me the way I want to be treated, someone is bound to be unhappy. Yea, think about it. Every time you are unhappy, it’s almost always because you didn’t get what you want.

It’s natural to be upset when you don’t get what you want. But is it really worth it? I always feel that the best way to analyze a situation is to take a step back. When you are in the middle of a confrontation, take a step back and what do you see? You see two people coming from different background, who have different perspective, expecting different things.

When push comes to shove, no shit there’s going to be differences. Everyone is right in their perspective. So, no one is actually wrong. Almost every time there’s crap like this, you have to step back, and realize that everyone looks at life with a different perspective, and there’s nothing you can do to change that. I would say it’s almost naïve to argue. Everyone thinks their right. And if you ever want to slightly change their perspective, it wouldn’t require blood, physical abuse, tough love, or even love. It requires you to lead by example. I think that’s the only way.
