今天文章中兩個(gè)夫妻吵架的例子都非常典型,第一個(gè)例子,丈夫籌劃已久一家人的戶外旅行,但妻子因?yàn)槟赣H身體不太好想回去照顧。
雙方都有自己的理由,可是大家卻都不肯讓步,都覺(jué)得自己的計(jì)劃才是對(duì)的。這跟我和另一半吵架一樣,他跟我說(shuō)這種吵架沒(méi)有對(duì)錯(cuò),而我每次都說(shuō)我是對(duì)的。所以只會(huì)越吵越兇。
然而,如果用到前面說(shuō)過(guò)的win/win、用心傾聽(tīng),站在對(duì)方角度去理解,其實(shí)會(huì)討論出一些雙贏的選擇。比如可以去妻子的母親家,在母親家附近的地方進(jìn)行一次郊游,雖然可能沒(méi)有之前準(zhǔn)備的那么好,但都滿足了對(duì)方的需求。還是要多站在他人的角度上思考。
另外就是value differences。有不同才是創(chuàng)意的源泉。但我們通常總是怕有不同的意見(jiàn),覺(jué)得那是被否定。相反,聽(tīng)到不同意見(jiàn),應(yīng)該開(kāi)心,然后去想想他是怎么想到這個(gè)點(diǎn)的。因?yàn)槭澜缇褪俏宀世_紛的。
