Oct 1, 2019 · Regardless of the topic, when we get into an argument, we are usually "in it to win it." Is there a secret to winning these arguments? Read on (or watch my YouTube video below).

Getting into an argument can be an extremely stressful experience. You can get so focused on "winning" that you forget to actually listen to the other person. Staying calm, taking a break before continuing, and delivering your arguments in a calm, rational matter (instead of screaming, or yelling, or crying) can make all the difference. While there...
A key to winning an argument is staying calm. The angrier and more upset you get the harder it will be for you to get your point across effectively.
This takes practice, but the better rein you can keep on your temper, the easier it will be for you to argue effectively.
If that isn't possibly, however, remember to breathe while you're having the argument. It can be tempting to get out your words as quickly and as loudly as possible, but the more time you take to say what you need to say, the more calmly you come across.
Keep your body language open and not defensive. You can use your body to trick your brain into being easier. Don't cross your arms across your chest; keep them loose at your sides or use them to help make your point.
To have an argument end well, especially end well in your favor, you need to convince the other person that you have their best interest throughout the argument. If you feel that the argument will serve some purpose in your relationship with the other person, they will sense that and you will have a better chance of getting your point across.
Before you get into the argument remind yourself why you care about this person and about the relationship you have with them (it could be as simple as "they are my boss and I'm going to need their good will some day" to "this is my daughter who I care about very much and am concerned about some of the decisions she's been making lately.")
This doesn't mean that you need to be condescending. Never say things like "I'm only saying this for your own good" or "I'm only trying to make you a better person." You are going to completely shut down the other person.
Be present to the moment.
These are certain arguments that you make that undermine your argument because they are based on faulty reasoning. If you find yourself relying on logical fallacies to convince your opponent, then you should reconsider your argument.
This is why it's a good idea to have an idea what you want to say before you say it. This way you can see if there are any holes or fallacies in your argument.
If you notice that the person you're arguing with is using a logical fallacy, point that out. You could say, for example, "You said that 70% of people don't support gay marriage, but you could have said that about slavery a hundred years ago. Are you sure you want to base your argument on that?"
Avoid employing a straw man.
