Purpose: Tell apart the thoughts worth answering from the ones that only want a fight.
When to use: Use this when you have spent an evening arguing in your own head.
Worksheet prompts
- Sort the ones you know well.
- How can you tell the difference between the two, for you?
- What does letting one pass actually look like?
Naming it, going back to what you were doing, not finishing the argument.
Not answering is a choice too, and often the cheaper one.
