Conflict Resolution
Iโ€™m not sure why this one is titled โ€œWhen it is okay to tell a white lieโ€? ๐Ÿค” It should be titled steps for conflict resolution. When you are in conflict with someone one of the most important things is to seek understanding of the other person. Step into their shoes for a moment. In order to do this, we must take the time, space, and be in a peaceful state to look at the situation from a high perspective. It does not mean we are accepting or forgiving the person for the conflict. Just trying to find a resolution to be able to move forward.

Trust
The best way to communicate with people is to tell them what they want to hear by paying them a compliment. People want to be liked and feel they belong. Then tell them the truth by delivering that truth with kindness. If you donโ€™t feel you can be fully truthful with your answer, you can always say to the person I need more information before I can tell you my thoughts. You can also say I am not sure. When people value your trust they are more open to being vulnerable with you as well as being honest with you.
