Youโ€™ve felt it before โ€“ someone approaches you and your stomach drops. Youโ€™re getting tense and coiled and ready for conflict. You feel it in your gut.

But it doesnโ€™t need to be this way.

Conflict happens โ€“ maybe a client is disappointed because expectations didnโ€™t align, or something happened, or theyโ€™re just having a rough day.

So how can you dial down the defensiveness and get better a outcome and results?

Itโ€™s all in your mindset and energy.

Wherever we focus our emotional energy leads to our outcome. If weโ€™re focusing on a battle, weโ€™re going to get one.

But what if you focused on the other personโ€™s mindset? Most conflict isnโ€™t malicious โ€“ itโ€™s about misunderstanding. Stop pre-judging and start having an open, honest conversation.

All is as it should be. When you remember that, youโ€™re in a better place to make your clients happy and lower your own stress levels.

Learning how to handle conflict with clients as a business owner is a vital skill. In this video, thatโ€™s just what youโ€™ll learn how to do โ€“ without having to compromise your values or placate difficult people. Itโ€™s all in your mindset.
