Are you trying to change the thinking of a difficult person? “Forgedaboudit!!”  We have two basic methods of conflict resolution in our brains: 1. one that’s smart for logical problem-solving and 2. the other that’s fast in a crisis (but that’s not so smart). In this fascinating video, Bill Eddy explains how you can choose which part of your brain you will use, and how to influence the way another person’s brain will respond to you.
