If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy, then he becomes your partner!
Nelson Mandela
I love this Kid President! He has brilliant wisdom and advice on many topics. Watch this short video if you need a mood booster and want to hear his step-by-step advice on how to disagree and still preserve the relationship:
It’s ok to disagree, it’s not ok to be mean. There are plenty of legitimate things to be upset about, this life thing is hard!
Kid President
1. Treat people like they’re people
2. Listen, Listen, Listen
3. Pause, Breathe, Love
4. Worst case scenario, if you’re still stuck in the argument, Kid President says distract them with cute koala bears (in other words bring lightness and playful humour to the discussion)
5. Acceptance. We may not like disagreement and sometimes we need it
6. Finally, DANCE!
Good luck and happy partnering!
