Dealing with difficult people

 

In the past, I tried very hard to avoid difficult tasks. Especially those that zap your energy but bring in nothing in value or contribute to goal or growth.  

Now I try very hard to avoid difficult people. It’s the most challenging and tiring thing. But often we cannot avoid them. So we have to adopt a different mindset and strategy when dealing with them. I’d rather stop wasting time and admit ‘defeat in argument than spending long hours trying to win it.
