Win-Win Situations


“Is it logical that two people can disagree and that both can be right? It’s not logical; it’s psychological. And it’s very real. And unless we value the differences in our perceptions, unless we value each other and give credence to the possibility that we’re both right, that life is not always a dichotomous either/or, that there are always third alternatives, we will never be able to transcend the limits of conditioning.” - Barton, Bruce. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People Calendar.

I believe in the win-win situation. I think any agreement can be worked out so that both parties can get what they want and feel good about it. Of course, this does take work. We need to realize the other point of view and value it. We need to think, and look for, the win-win situation in our daily lives.
