Resolving conflicts effectively is almost as important as making good decisions, but it is much more difficult because there are two people involved, and not everyone thinks in the same ways. However, in many ways, conflict resolution is very similar to decision making. Conflicts arise over pretty much anything, a spot on a team, a girl or boy, or something that happened over the summer. One way to make sure you resolve your conflicts without violence, and ensuring that you get what you want out of the discussion. In order to resolve your conflicts, use this method.
Step One: Set the Scene
Step Two: Gather Information
Step Three: Agree the Problem
Step Four: Brainstorm Possible Solutions
Step Five: Negotiate a Solution
Using these steps, you and the other party in the conflict will find a good compromise without violence or anything nasty like that. Remember, whenever you have a conflict, violence is never the answer. It will only inflame the problem, and make you seem like a bully. Fighting is never the best way to solve your problem.

I really agree with Step three of your method. I believe that many times, an agreement cannot be made, because the two people do not think that the same problem exists. Nice Blog.
