AVOID CONTENTIOUS PEOPLE, IF YOU CAN! By Iyke Nwambie

Arguments have never been the best way to communicate. They have never been the most effective channel to lend credence to your voice. They sap our energy, choke our reasonings, and cause us to say and do things that we end up hating like plague.

Arguments  arise when you choose not to see it from the other person's point of view, and the other person also decides to do the same.

But what if you decided to postpone the chat, what if you decided in advance that you will stay in charge of your mood? What if you decided in advance that the Holy Spirit would guide your thoughts and words and views?

I sincerely believe that it will make a positive difference in what the outcome of your chat would be. Yes, it will turn flaming moods into flowing joys, it will turn growing tempers into glowing tempers;
and your voice will be appreciated, not just heard…For no one, I repeat, no one wins an argument at the end of the day.

So, stay clear of it, avoid contentious people and issues if you can, because you will be better off for it, for the most part.

Your friend,
