Defuse Conflict With Pause, Process, and Proceed Intentionally

There will always be moments when others will take us to task. Often it happens because we did something carelessly. Other times it happens even though we are honest, caring, and have good intentions. Not everyone is going to agree with us, but we don't have to let the disagreement become a point of the creation of a broken relationship. The key is to Pause, Process, and Proceed based on complete understanding and clarity. You can only control how you respond, so please choose well.
