In everyday life, we often argue with someone: with relatives, with friends, with colleagues, with bosses, and sometimes even with strangers who met us by chance. Often, due to such a dispute, the mood spoils, everything is boiling inside, but there is no result: it is impossible to convince a person that he is wrong.

Ability to control yourself and make reasonable arguments
Instructions
Step 1
Inhale full lungs of air and slowly, counting to ten silently, exhale it. This simple exercise will help you calm down. As a rule, convincing a person that he is wrong leads to an explosion of emotions: thoughts are confused and it is not possible to logically express everything that you think. It often happens that after an argument, after some time, scrolling through the situation in your head, you begin to understand what arguments you would like to bring, but it's too late: after a fight, they don't wave their fists. Therefore, the first rule of any dialogue is calmness.
Step 2
Organize your thoughts - build a possible line of conversation. If a meeting is planned, prepare for it: back up your opinion with strong arguments. For example, describe a similar incident and conclude that everyone is wrong. Alternatively, include the opinions of others who are competent in the matter in your arguments. If the conversation came as a surprise to you, then try to build your speech as clearly and clearly as possible, speak confidently: the interlocutor may simply be confused, seeing your understanding and knowledge of the issue. Consequently, his point of view will be shaken. But sometimes there are people with enviable stubbornness - it is very difficult to convince such people, but it is possible. It is necessary, in turn, to show perseverance. Usually, if they are given convincing arguments for some time, then they listen to the voice of reason.
Step 3
Be polite, tactful, do not use profanity. Remember that nothing depends on raising the tone: you cannot convince a person of anything by raising his voice or insulting him. Learn to listen to your interlocutor without interrupting him. Understand the arguments expressed to you and try to find your BUT for each of them. In doing so, your words should be as convincing as possible. As far as possible, the dialogue should take place in a peaceful manner, so you will quickly reach an agreement and, perhaps, hear the words: "I was wrong."
