Welcome. I'm your host, Greg McEwan. I'm the author of Two New York Times Best

Sellers, Essentialism and Effortless, and I'm here to learn how to be better at

negotiation in conflict resolution. I'm here with you on this journey. Have you ever

felt that you were right and the other person was wrong? Have you ever felt

absolutely sure about it? Are you feeling that way about someone right now?

Today I will share a story, something I am learning and actionable advice.

By the end of this episode you will be able to escape the costly trap of trying

to be right all the time. Let's get to it.

This episode is sponsored by Factor Meals. The season is a bit ironic I think,

because on the one hand it's a time that can be peaceful, rejuvenative, inspirational as it helps us to think about

higher better things, and at the same time it can become reactive. It can be the

busiest time of the year, and in that intensity it can be hard to eat in a healthy way.

Perhaps you're looking for a way to be able to eat a nutritious, flavorful meal despite

being stretched a bit too thin. Factor is America's number one ready to eat meal delivery

service. They can help you eat well for breakfast, lunch and dinner with chef

prepared, dietitian approved, ready to eat meals delivered straight to your door.

The advantages you can save time while still staying on track with the healthy lifestyle

that you're aspiring to the rest of the year, while still tackling the most

important things in this season to do. If you're looking for a more effortless way to be

able to cross meal prepping off your list, a factor can be a useful solution

because you get to skip the meal planning, the grocery shopping, the chopping prepping,

cleaning up, and you get factors fresh, never frozen meals. They're just delivered to your door.
