ABSTRACT

What is your biggest obstacle to carrying out a successful time-out from your list in Table  4.2, and how can you overcome it? ________________

1. Understand the differences between a time-out and walking away from an argument. Once you understand the differences, a commitment must be made to following through and believing in the time-out process. Thinking it will not help will lead to you not putting in the effort that is required to make it effective.
