* Do you find yourself avoiding difficult conversations?
* Do you assume you know the other person’s intentions when there is a disagreement?
* Do you find that you blame whenever things go wrong?
* Do you consider feelings an important part of a difficult conversation?
* Do you sometimes wonder if you are a good person when someone calls into question your identity in a difficult situation?
* The Third Story describes what really happened. It can only be understood after we understand the other person’s story as well as our own.
* A learning conversation works best when both parties are willing to listen and work together to find a solution.

A will is a document that describes the last wishes of an individual after his or her death, including how property should be distributed and who should manage the estate of the deceased person. A will’s primary functions can be divided into two categories: (1) those directing the distribution of the decedent’s estate and (2) those nominating individuals to represent the decedent and his or her estate.

Anger has meaning. We should understand that if we are angry it must mean something.

When we’re angry there is usually something else going on besides the thing that is provokes us. That something else is how we interpret the provocation.

How should we respond?

Ask: How am I interpreting the thing, is that making it worse? Often it is at that level where we can identify the factors leading us to blow things up into a bigger situation.

Once we’ve established how we are interpreting a situation, we can begin to decide what to do with it.

Anger tries to convince us that we must act right now. However, we can take a moment to work to balance our emotions first, then work with the situation.

The law in some states allow a person who has signed a will to use a separate document (Personal Property Memorandum) to direct who will receive certain pieces of tangible personal property after death. Such a list provides a great deal of flexibility without the need to constantly update a will.

Have you experienced one of the three kinds of anger in your legacy planning: Passive-aggression, Open Aggression or Assertive Aggression?

Problem? Anger is not a problem to be solved. It exists in us to alert us to injustice and then to energize us to respond to that injustice.

Is our interpretation of the anger we feel making it worse? It is at that level where we can often identify the factors leading us to blow things up.

Once we’ve identified how we are interpreting a situation, then we can begin to move forward with an intentional goal to decide what to do with it.
