> Understanding the incredibly high and hidden cost of conflict and anger. Films romanticize fighting the good fight. Avoiding a fight (legal, arguments, etc) until you absolutely can’t is worth a lot. This is known to be great project management advice _and_ terrible relationship advice. For interpersonal relationships, signaling misalignment early, directly, openly, with a sympathetic and reconciling demeanor, has been the best choice for me. Can't find sources anymore, sorry. For projects, I won't expend more effort than what I have to. Where does the project work stop and the interpersonal work starts, that's a vague art that demands a bit of intuition.
