We all know one, and in fact, we might just be one ourselves.
Today's episode is all about how to communicate with and handle a strong personality.
Welcome to the Jefferson Fisher podcast, where I'm on a mission to make your next conversation the one that changes everything.
If you like improving your communication, I'm going to ask you to follow this podcast and if you would leave a review, I'm excited to announce and share that my book, the next conversation is officially out on pre order.
It's a book that is going to teach you how to to say things with control, to say it with confidence, and as always, say it to connect.
It's a book that's going to help you change your life one conversation at a time.
When it comes to handling that strong personality in your world, number one, don't sweat the small stuff.
Don't attend every argument that you're invited to.
People that are strong personalities like to make issues of every little thing, and it is up to you whether you take that bait or not.
Arguments are often like chess.
You have to give up some pieces in order to win.
So don't sweat the small stuff.
Number two, don't take it personally.
Don't take it personally.
People who have strong personalities often don't know that they're coming on that strong.
It's just a product of their nature.
So if you take it personally, you are going into the area of no return where you're going to find that you are at the bottom of a vortex.
And you're asking, well, how did I even get here?
It's because you took it personally.
We're going to talk about how to separate the person from the problem.
