ARGUMENT Vs DISCUSSION

A Wonderful lesson for a Succesful Peaceful Life: :) :)

There are some personalities that can be labeled as argumentative and that shows in their behavior and relationships. Arguments can be avoided and a lot of heartache prevented by being a little careful. The best way to win an argument is to avoid it. An argument is one thing you will never win.

If you win, you lose; if you lose, you lose.

If you win an argument but lose a good job, customer, friend or marriage, what kind of victory is it? Pretty empty.

Arguments result from inflated ego. Arguing is like fighting a losing battle. Even if one wins, the cost may be more than the victory is worth. Emotional battles leave a residual ill will even if you win. In an argument, both people are trying to have the last word. Argument is nothing more than a battle of egos.

If one wants to accomplish great things in life one has to practice maturity. Maturity means not getting entangled in unimportant things and petty arguments.

What are the differences between an Argument and a Discussion?

An argument throws heat; a discussion throws light.

One stems from ego and a closed mind whereas the other comes from an open mind.

An argument is an exchange of ignorance whereas a discussion is an exchange of knowledge.

An argument is an expression of temper whereas a discussion is a lesson of logic.

An argument tries to prove who is right whereas a discussion tries to prove what is right.
