MrBond, I suppose I wasn't specific enough. Dr Ito teaches that you can be agreeable without always agreeing. Ex: "having kids is horrible" "yeah, sometimes they can really be a handful" - I didn't agree that kids are horrible, but found something about the statement that I can agree with, and stated it. He says that this gives the impression that I'm not the competition, that we're on the same team.
