Whenever you have a disagreement with someone you care about and who cares about you, pose this straightforward question:
“How important is this to you on a scale of 1 to 10?”
The size of the disagreement doesn’t matter. Whether it’s about dinner choices or naming your first-born child, this method helps avoid unnecessary disagreements and keeps relationships strong (most of the time, see exceptions below).
