One of the greatest challenging opportunities that we face as individuals and that I am presented with as a coach , as a happiness coach , as an executive coach and as a peak performance coach . And that is dealing with difficult people or having or navigating difficult or stressful conversations with people . Sometimes those people , by the way , are ourselves by far .
Sometimes those people , by the way , are ourselves by far . And the most significant and critical factor in having a difficult conversation or dealing with difficult people is to prioritize your inner peace . Above all else , you have to want to be at peace more than you want to be right .

So my encouragement today is prioritize peace , inner peace , recognize and realize that's something that ultimately you own and you have control over . And if you can do that , I promise that you will not only find peace and harmony with the other person , even if they don't find it with you , but you will also increase your influencing power and your persuasive power .
Above all else , you have to want to be at peace more than you want to be right . You have to want to be at peace more than you want to breathe or live if you can do that successfully , if you can commit to that wholeheartedly , I promise you that you will find peace with the other person even if they don't find it with you and you will find harmony with the other person , even if they don't find it with you . And that is over half the battle itself because in doing so , not only do you have the ultimate prize , but you also believe it or not increase your persuasive power and your ability to influence exponentially .
