Sometimes you find yourself in a situation where you find it hard to tolerate someone’s actions or words. Try to understand where each person is coming from, and avoid making it into a personal battle. You can try to develop a more tolerant attitude by learning about different people, developing confidence in yourself, and coming to appreciate differences. 1.
Make efforts to understand someone else. You may have very different backgrounds and experiences. 2. So try to see things from his side.
Ask for an explanation. If you are talking to someone and he says something that you find hard to accept, you can figure out his perspective without being intolerant. 3. For example, you might say something like, “OK, tell me more about that. What makes you think that？” Anyway, remember that tolerance does not mean accepting unacceptable behavior.
4. This may be a more negative kind of tolerance than learning to accept and value differences, but it can be useful. To do this you would have to avoid certain topics of conversation, or swiftly change the subject when necessary.
Deal with a conflict. When you have difficulty tolerating someone’s actions or words, you can start by calmly describing what you find offensive.5.And you should then explain how the problem would be dealt with.
A.Try to ignore your differences.
B.Use “I” statements rather than “you” statements.
C.Start by stating what you think a good situation is.
D.Try to understand his views well by asking him to explain them.
E.Here are tips that help you tolerate others in difficult situations.
F.What seems obvious to you might seem strange to someone else.
G.Next, try to get a better understanding of each other’s views about it.
