We can solve these problems by using various methods of human influence, such as empathy, confrontation, example, and persuasion.
Many people have only a few basic methods such as fight or flight.
For problems over which we have no control, first we must recognize that we have no control, and then gracefully accept that fact and make the best of the situation. This summary ends here. It has covered only the first part of this great book. All rights reserved.
