“You look a little rigid today,” I said, looking across the table.
“Yes,” Roland nodded. “I am having an argument with my sales manager and I just cannot move him off his position.”
“And, that makes you feel how?”
“Frustrated. If he would just listen to me, we could solve this problem straight away.”
“How are you, when you don’t listen?” I asked.
“When I don’t listen, it’s because I am right,” Roland flatly stated.
“Does your sales manager thinks he is right?”
Roland stopped, shook his head. Deep breath. “Yes,” he slowly drawled.
“So, if you both think you are right, how are you going to find out who is wrong? You get to decide if you want to be frustrated or curious.”
