The quality of our lives depends not on whether or not we have conflicts, but on how we respond to them.

It is very difficult to apply the old Indian adage 'Do not judge another until you have walked a mile in his moccasins,' unless you get out of your own moccasins first.

Conflict isn't negative, it just is.

Change does not take time - it takes commitment.

The number one goal in resolving a conflict is to make sure both sides maintain their self-esteem. Resolving conflict is rarely about who is right. It is about acknowledgment and appreciation of differences.

Embracing conflict can become a joy when we know that irritation and frustration can lead to growth and fascination.

Instead of seeing the rug being pulled from under us, we can learn to dance on the shifting carpet.
