Heated Conversations
Mediation is the best way to keep heated conversations from getting out of control.Grab a stop watch and put a space between the response.
When having a heated conversation and you are easily enraged you should take a thirty second to a two minute break between your reply. This is easier said then done. You may need a mediator in most cases. After watching a Doctor who has a talk show and watching it in action has made this all to clear. The doctor will ask for no interruptions while one is speaking then when it is time to respond he will ask the question and then say you can answer after the commercial. Most people in a heated conversation will spit out the first thing that comes to mind without much thought.
Put thirty seconds to two minutes between the response gives you time to calm down and think. If only everyone had a mediator. This might last for a few statements being made before it escalates back to rage. The same condition should then be given to the other person. I know it is hard given the circumstances of television and you just can’t go to a commercial after every statement. Without a thought process defensive people will say things that are heat of the moment. Deflect and defend are what falls out of a person if cornered without time to think. The reaction usually isn’t worth two cents.
