We need to see argument in a different light.
An argument should not be seen as a hostile exchange or a fight but as a fun, enjoyable exchange of opinions. There should not be tears but laughter — no need for anger.
When we argue with someone over a belief, an idea, a course of action, or a decision. We should not see it as a fight. We should see it as an opportunity to work together, strengthen our relationship, and learn.
An argument should be less about persuading the other person to our point of view and more about refining or even changing our own point of view.
Rather than putting up a straw argument of their position and burning it down — build a steel argument and argue against that.
