Knowing when to stop the dialogue.

Whether it is at home, in litigation, or in a negotiation, there are moments in life where continuing to communicate will push you further from your goal. Knowing when to stop the communication requires some intuition and experience.  A feel for whether you can convince the other side to “see the light.”  No matter how right you are, or how good your case or cause, continuing to negotiate and make that point can put you in a position you don’t want to be in, even when you’re right.
