Exploring Bullying: Friendly Atheist Guest Darrington B | Causes, Effects and Our Response| Podcast

<p>Special thanks to guest Darrington for his unique perspective on bullying. &nbsp;Regardless of whatever background have or world view we adhere to, there is no escaping the effects of bullying. &nbsp;Even if by some miracle we are able to avoid it ourselves, the effects can be seen on all those around us who we care for. &nbsp;In this Podcast we are setting aside our differences in opinions on the "big issue" so we can focus on things that are more practical in our daily lives: the brutal affects that bullies can cause. &nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>If you or anyone you know is the victim of a bully or any abuse please contact us at rhepodcast@gmail.com or contact the links below. &nbsp;&nbsp;Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255 &nbsp;</p> <p>We are making several courses available for self improvement, discipline and organization. &nbsp;Please feel free to use or share with a friend!&nbsp; https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bzZFcl9jkWeVyM3ko2RV5S1mszc7h-QR?usp=sharing</p> <p><br></p> <p>&nbsp;In the Podcast I referenced Dale Carnegie's famous book How to Win Friends and Influence people.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;You can find the notes in the drive or read below "How to keep a disagreement from becoming an argument". &nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;Welcome the disagreement. &nbsp;When two partners always agree, one of them is not necessary. &nbsp;If there is some point you haven’t thought about, be thankful it is brought to your attention. &nbsp;Perhaps you may be corrected before you make a serious mistake. &nbsp;</p> <p>Distrust your first instinctive impression.&nbsp;</p> <p>Don’t be defensive. &nbsp;Keep calm and watch out for your first reaction. &nbsp;</p> <p>Control your temper. &nbsp;You can measure a size of a person by what makes him angry. &nbsp;</p> <p>Listen first. &nbsp;Give your opponents a chance to talk. &nbsp;Let them finish. &nbsp;</p> <p>Try to build bridges of understanding. &nbsp;Don’t built higher barriers of misunderstanding.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;Look for areas of agreement. &nbsp
