Here’a a tip I picked up from James Clear, author of Atomic Habits.

Whenever someone disagrees with you on a small matter, you can shrug, say 'you’re probably right' and move on. Not caring about winning trivial arguments saves time and energy.

Is Roger Federer a better overall tennis player than Rafael Nadal? Yes.

If you believe Nadal is the best, will I argue? No.

I’m okay with you seeing this differently.

You’re probably right.
