Handle Resistance Calmly
When facing reactance: - Reframe requests: Offer choices instead of commands to reduce resistance. - Empathize: Understand the other person’s need for autonomy and validate their feelings. - Negotiate: Collaborate on solutions that respect their freedom. Example: Instead of saying, "You must do this now," say, "Would you prefer to tackle this now or after lunch?"
