You may have all the facts, logic, and reasoning to make your point.
But if you sense a conversation has moved from dialogue to argument, get out of it quickly.
Even if you have to eat humble pie.
Go back to what needs to get done.
Let your actions and results prove the point you wanted to make.
***
In a dialogue, we are in a receptive mode - willing to listen, exchange, and gain perspective.
In an argument, we are in a defensive mode - driven by a surge of ego and emotions.
Reason rarely finds its way through the shield of ego and emotion.
Lose the argument.
Divert your energy to action.
Win the game.
