Are you going to cancel the holidays?

Are you going to cancel the holidays?

Imagine the following situation.
A few months back, you had planned a trip to Singapore. You bought the air tickets and paid for the hotel. Now when the travel date is approaching, you face a dilemma.
Your wife is pregnant and throwing. She is determined to go to Singapore because tickets are booked and are also not refundable.
In such a situation, would you still go ahead with the trip or cancel the trip and bear the loss.
What is your verdict ?

Negotiation is an important life skill

We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.

If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.

“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
