Do not respond in kind, always be the better person.
Violence begets violence, immaturity begets immaturity.
In a fight, be the gracious one who take a step backwards. Take the proactive position to solve problems instead of fighting for pride.
At work, be more objective, don't point fingers, don't take things personal - even if the other party is putting it personal and pointing finger at you. Responding in kind will not solve the problem, it makes things worse by shifting the focus to insignificant matters which doesn't contribute to progress.
At love, be the one to take the step back, to ask what's wrong, to say sorry. Clashing emotions and walking out the door rips scars in the relationship. Keeping and comparing scores is pointless; there is nothing to win by winning the argument. Be the stronger one to give support to your partner, be the gracious one to forgive and forget mistakes, be the mature one to understand and respect your partner's perspective.
Be generous and don't be calculative - there are no scorecards or balance sheets in life.
