Handling Resistance

 

Handling Resistance

Resistance is refusing to accept. It is not necessary for everyone to accept everything. But there are situations where views of worth are refused for acceptance. If one can gain the skills of handling resistance it will give them a better environment while in communication.

Physics has given R as the symbol for resistance. Interestingly Physics defines that the resistance of any material will increase with its length and at the same time resistance will decrease when the area of the material keeps increasing.

Handling Resistance can be subjected to an experiment based on the principles in physics which can be applied in any conversation between two persons or between two groups where there is resistance to views and suggestions.

During a conversation or a presentation when one exhibits resistance to any idea or suggestion, then more we keep repeating the idea or suggestion it will only increase the resistance. But when the idea or suggestion is explained in depth to a point of understanding there will be reduction in resistance as the person views it from a logical perspective.

When two or more people differ on the same idea or suggestion then they can be treated as Parallel resistors and can be handled together. But when two or more people differ on different ideas or suggestions then the resistance in series will be the best approach where each one is handled separately.
