Did you know you’re constantly negotiating?  You negotiate with your co-workers, your spouse, even your kids.  You negotiate every decision in your life, dozens of times a day!  It’s easy to feel overwhelmed or intimidated when it seems like the other guy has all the power.

If you’re feeling like you’re the underdog, you’ve got to remember one thing: the other guy feels exactly the same way! 

He’s human, just like you!  He doesn’t know what you’re going to do, either!  So go in there with your head held high and your chest puffed out.  You’ve got the power, whether you’re in the living room or the boardroom.  Work for the win-win solution and you’ll find that it’s what everybody wanted all along.
