Even though it could be tempting, don’t use 
your emotion as a launching pad to further 
an argument.

00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,700
You may know for a fact that you are right 
and they are wrong

00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:23,000
but that doesn’t give you the right to belittle 
their opinion or push your opinions on them.

00:00:23,100 --> 00:00:34,700
Consider Dr. Rob Pennington’s words: “We 
often use the intensity of our emotion as 
evidence of the truth of our thinking. Look 
how upset I am; therefore, I am right.”

5
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:47,200
That’s flawed reasoning. Keep your emotion 
in check any time you’re in the middle of 
a disagreement—and always remember, your 
relationships should be more important than 
winning an argument.
