Read the emotional pattern

Different rhythms can be negotiated through small adjustments. Compromise works best when both people contribute to it.

Separate feeling from inference

Use this lens to explore the emotional quality of a situation. A card cannot verify another person’s private feelings.

  1. Name the feeling this interpretation brings up in you first.
  2. Write down the other person’s observable words and actions separately from your explanation of them.
  3. If it is appropriate to ask, choose a direct question that gives the other person room to describe their own experience.

A question for your side of the connection

Which small adjustment would make this more sustainable without draining its purpose?
