A lot of energy is wasted in adversarial
relationships. Unless you are in a life or death situation, it's often
better to disengage from someone who is set against you rather than try
to defeat or outdo them. Your time and effort is better spent finding
and working with those who are aligned to your purpose. ~ Isabel
Parlett
Every conflict we face in life is rich with positive and negative
potential. It can be a source of inspiration, enlightenment, learning,
transformation, and growth–or rage, fear, shame, entrapment, and
resistance. The choice is not up to our opponents, but to us, and our
willingness to face and work through them. ~ Kenneth Cloke and Joan
Goldsmith
