Difficult Conversations

Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss what Matters Most Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss what Matters Most by Douglas Stone

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Fantastic book. I'm gonna have to read it again and again. Could use the content for an amazing marriage improvement course. I'd sign up.

Lots of practical advice in this book. I loved the role plays. So easy to relate to. One of the best things I learned (or was reminded about) is that you should never blame someone else for a problem but instead find out how each party contributed to the problem and learn to talk it through openly and fairly.

I wish I'd read this book months ago! There are a number of difficult conversations I've had since then that would've gone a lot better. They still would've been difficult, because difficult conversations always are, but I would've been able to handle them more skillfully.
