Let It Go

How do you overcome the lingering unease that persists after an argument?

Whether the disagreement was personal or professional, it can be difficult to shake off the awkwardness of confrontation. 

A simple, counterintuitive recommendation? 

Let it go. 

Don’t lick your wounds. Don’t replay the battle in your mind. 

Instead, choose to move on. 

Show that colleague / friend / lover the same respect and warmth that characterized the relationship before the fight. 

But remember to assess their strength as a colleague / friend / lover by their ability to do the same to you.
