WISDOM NUGGET - AGREEING TO DISAGREE

One of the key wisdom I have imbibed (internalized) that has helped me greatly in my relationship with others is learning to agree while I disagree - it simply means, I have learned to acknowledge other people's positions and opinions without necessarily agreeing with them. This is a key wisdom that will help you in dealing and relating with your spouse, your colleagues, and rivals at any level..

Phrases such as:

"I hear you, however,......"
"I acknowledge your position, however, have you considered .........."
"I recognize where you are coming from, in addition, I think ......."
.......

and others like it are critical for interacting with others, lead to less shouting bout, and allow for more productive discussion in meetings and gathering.....I hope it makes sense to some...

This is Cacophony at Best...

MAGA destroyed DEI but they want to implement DEI at Harvard ... They claim the school is not diverse enough. They have too many liberals , so they need to hire more conservative , whether they meet the hiring requirement or survive the rigor of delivering excellence at Harvard or not. This is what they claim DEI is all about - hiring people based on race, they claim, but they have no issue telling Harvard to hire based on political ideology.... You read the same thing about BLM and Antisemitism . They say BLM reflects poorly on the history of America... Critical race theory is false history... slaves loved being in captivity, they loved their masters and served willingly... there is no more discrimination based on the color of your skin in America - but all the metrics point in the opposite direction... Jewish Lives Matter ; Black Lives Matter , and Palestinian Lives Matter ... All Lives Matter . A terrorist life should not be equal to 20 innocent Palestinian life... It is okay t...

Botswana, a country of 2.3 million people...
