Reflecting on the Experience
When conflict is unresolved:
- These are difficult situations, and they take time to straighten out.
- Try to shake it off. Dont' take it personally.
- I'll get better at this as I get more practice.
- Can I laugh about it?
- Take a deep breath and think positive thoughts.
When conflict is resolved or coping is succesful:
- I handled that one pretty well. It worked!
- It could have been a lot worse.
- My pride can sure get me into trouble, but when I don't take things too seriously, I'm better off.
- I guess I've been getting upset for too long when it wasn't even necessary.
