In the Heat of the Moment: Buy Yourself Time to Respond With a Clear Head

Learn to recognize when a problem arises and how to answer with a level head.

Have you ever felt pressured during a conversation with another person? If you have, you're not alone. This is a common problem. The conversation gets tense, emotions get elevated, and you either speak too quickly or freeze up and don't speak at all. Fortunately, there are things you can do and strategies you can employ to buy yourself time to respond and to respond in a way that moves the conversation successfully forward. This topic will help you identify ways to keep your emotions under control, respond in ways that keep the conversation alive while giving you time to think more clearly, and a strategy for engaging in a way that puts your thoughts and concerns on the table without elevating the emotional level of the conversation.
