• Most conflicts begin because of misunderstanding.• “If only THEY would change that behavior we
could get along.”– Individual needs are hard-wired in our heads
and are almost impossible to change.• Your goal should be to understand the other
person’s behavior, not to change it.• Until you understand who you are, you will never
end difficult interpersonal relationship cycles.
