Very often, all a person wants is to feel *really* listened to. It's surprising how often just listening helps people.

Seshat's self-help guide:
1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

Seshat, as usual, has her head on straight. (That is, she has sound advice and information with which I agree.) Also, yeah-- listening, actually listening, is huge. It's the need to be known and understood.
