My wife, Becky, and I have an agreement that when one of us feels an 
argument is become destructive, that partner can say "I hate when that happens," 
and the other has to let go. It forces us to break the negative state we're in by 
thinking of something that makes us laugh. And it also reminds us that we do 
hate it when we do that. 
 
There are two main ideas in this chapter. The first is that you can persuade 
better through agreement than through conquest. The competition model is very 
limited. I've already talked about the magic of rapport and how essential it is to 
personal power. If you see someone as a competitor, someone to be vanquished, 
you're starting out with the exact opposite framework. Everything I know about 
communication tells me to build from agreement, not from conflict; to learn to 
align and lead rather than to try and overcome resistance. 
 
The second idea is that our behavior patterns aren't indelibly carved into 
our brain. If we repeatedly do something that limits us, we're just running a 
terrible pattern over and over again. The solution is simply to interrupt the 
pattern. 
 
In both cases, the common ground is the idea of flexibility.
