No Win Situations

Enforcing your will on others creates no win situations for both parties. The enforcer won't be happy because things won't go his way completely and the receiver won't be happy because his free will is being broken.

Seeing both sides and understanding the root of the disagreement is key as well as establishing what is most important to each party. Then brainstorm on how to honor both sides and come up with compromises. Often times it is the acknowledgement of a base need that needs to be addressed in order to make change possible, in order to start creating win-win situations instead.

Mutual respect and understanding are fundamental.
