summary

Describes a concrete habit: run three quick checks before arguing — do I understand different perspectives, do I optimize for the system, should I let it go — illustrated with a code review fight over tabs versus spaces and the advice to make trivial decisions fast and commit. Recommends empathy, ask who benefits from a choice, and default to calm, rational closure so meetings stop burning time and emotional energy and teams move faster.
