Last week I’ve learned that there’s a big mental difference between these two phrases: — I agree with you, but I think it’s better to do it this way. — I think it’s better to do it this way, but I agree with you. Which one is more likely gonna work? Turns out, people remember and react on the last part of a sentence better than the first. Sounds idiotic, but it works.

"i see what you mean, but you can also try it this way" — it comes down to intent

I’m not sure I understand right what you mean, but I really don’t think it’s about an intent. Have you ever fought about something with your partner or colleague? 😁 we all have good intentions, but people perceive it so differently. that’s why this particular trick is a game changer.

i see what you mean, but i think it's their problem if they are doubting your intentions when you are suggesting them a better way, and then, i'll leave it to just "i agree with you with all my heart and senses and everything" some people want to hear what they want to hear, so give them that

it’s really a matter of you just wanna be right? or you wanna find a consensus in a fight? for example, If you would just put the first part of the sentence of your last message at the end, I wouldn’t feel antagonistic to what you say (even though I don’t have any problem with what you say)😊 this is just behavioural biology — I really recommend you to listen this pull of lectures about the topic https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL150326949691B199&si=0DotIG2BOKRqXOhL
