GETTING TO ZERO
How to Work Through Conflict in Your High-Stakes Relationships
How to "get to zero" - resolve your conflicts with the people around you by understanding the origins of your conflict style and avoidance patterns - from the founder of The Relationship School.
Conflicts in our closest relationships are scary because so much is at stake. If the conflict doesn't go well, we could lose our marriage, our family or our job, all of which are connected to our security and survival. We'll do just about anything to not lose those relationships, including avoiding conflict, betraying ourselves or becoming dishonest. Ironically, these adaptations create even more conflict.
Gaddis' method of Getting to Zero upgrades the old, tired, and static conflict resolution approaches. Why Zero? Zero means that the conflict between you and the other person is done, gone, and you both feel resolved. It's a win/win.
Getting to Zero is a dynamic, user friendly, practical conflict resolution method aimed at helping readers work through conflict with those they care about as quickly as possible. Embracing conflict does not mean that we encourage fights or condone abusive relationships. It means that we stop running away from uncomfortable conversations and instead learn how to work through them. It might mean calling your parents or that old friend and taking responsibility for your part of whatever went down in the past. Or it might mean getting honest with that difficult co-worker and letting them know you want to work through your conflict and that you're willing to listen to them. It means communicating clearly and listening on a day-to-day basis.
In Getting to Zero, Gaddis shows how to move from disconnection to connection, acceptance, and understanding. Most of us don't have great role models, maps or guidance on navigating conflict and the tools we use are deeply ingrained based on our upbringing and attachment styles. How can we deal with conflict in a more effective and positive way so that both parties walk away stronger and more connected? Gaddis provides explanations, examples, and specific tools to change the way we do conflict so we can have closer, more meaningful relationships.
Jayson Gaddis is a relationship expert and sought after coach, as well as the founder of The Relationship School. He is also the host of the successful Relationship School podcast. Gaddis leads the most comprehensive relationship training in the world of intimate relationships and partnership, called the Deep Psychology of Intimate Relationships (DPIR), which teaches his Interpersonal Intelligence system. He has a Masters in psychology and lives with his wife and two children in Boulder, Colorado.
