Aggressive vs. Angry<\/strong><\/p>\n

Okay, so you\u2019re angry. And you have a right to be. But no one likes a hot head\u2014and they certainly won\u2019t listen to one. Furthermore, being aggressive doesn\u2019t have to mean acting out of anger or excess emotion! In fact, focused calm will render far greater results than an onslaught of insults or vitriol. So, before you do anything, take a deep breath and channel your frustration in a positive manner<\/a><\/strong>. Try to expunge some of the emotional buildup before dealing with the situation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Properly Address the Situation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now that you\u2019re calm, you can take some time to properly address the situation. What went wrong? What could\u2019ve been done differently, and most importantly, what are you asking be done as a result of the error? Whether it\u2019s a refund, an apology or attention to a matter that\u2019s been inappropriately handled, you\u2019d be well served to map out what you\u2019re going to say about the situation, what you\u2019re going to ask for in return and how you\u2019re going to approach it all before you confront the other party. This will help you to stay calm if they anger you.<\/p>\n

Know What You’ll Accept as a Compromise<\/strong><\/p>\n

Your plan should include not just your desired result, but also where you\u2019ll draw the line in a compromise. Negotiations often go awry because one party feels desperate and wants to grab onto something\u2014anything\u2014rather than be left with nothing. Not a pleasant situation and certainly not productive. By giving yourself a guideline, you\u2019ll prevent spur-of-the-moment mistakes. Knowing your absolute bottom line (the minimum you can accept and still walk away satisfied), gives you guns to stick to and ensures you won\u2019t walk away feeling bamboozled or disappointed.<\/p>\n

Respected is More Important Than Liked<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes, what stops us from asking for what is rightfully ours is the fact that we don\u2019t feel worthy of it<\/strong><\/a>. We\u2019re afraid to be bothersome or make someone angry. God forbid anyone dislike us! As a result, we come off as pushovers and get treated as such. The result is that our needs are never met and we harbor resentment or sadness about it. No more. By taking on a stronger\u2014healthier\u2014persona when approaching difficult situations, you may or may not make friends, but you\u2019ll earn respect and be treated accordingly.<\/p>\n
