Remember
Realize that every person has a hunger for strokes. Also, understand that many situations of conflicts are, in fact, attempts by the other party to seek strokes. Give as much positive strokes as possible. As far as possible, avoid negative strokes; at least convert them into mixed strokes. Realize that a no stroke situation is equally or more dangerous than a negative stroke.
