How to transform from self - neglect to self - respect

Why its worth listening to people you disagree with

PeaceBuilders Opinion 1

Conflict with Respect

Disagreements happen, but how you handle them matters. Respect is the key to solving problems kindly.

A Bad Start

Imagine saying, “Why am I the only one cleaning here?”

It exaggerates.

It ignores what others do.

It sounds angry.

A Better Start

Try a "soft start" instead:

Say what’s bothering you politely.

Use “I” instead of “you.”

Focus on the issue, not the person.

Example: “I know you’ve been busy, but could you help with the kitchen?”

Stay Respectful

Don’t call names or bring up old fights.

Don’t threaten or act like it’s a game to win.

Talk honestly and kindly.

When you respect each other, you can fix problems without hurting feelings!
