FRIDAY, APRIL 19, DAY 5
Hello SSMS! Today your No Place for Hate team would like to talk to you about resolving conflicts with kindness. It is okay to disagree with someone. In these moments it is still important to practice respect and kindness by following a few simple steps. Be aware of your open mind. Aim to understand others perspectives instead of trying to be right. Take turns speaking. Take responsibility for your actions or words, especially if they hurt someone else. Listen carefully to what others have to say, try to understand their perspectives and experience. Lately take time to reflect. Think about what steps work well for you and how they can help you with future disagreements.
