“Uncompromising” can mean a lot of different things, some of which are good and some of which are bad. No one has to give in just because they have high standards. They can also refuse because they can’t admit they were wrong.
“Determined,” “resolute,” and “single-minded” are all positive words that go with “uncompromising.” People like this won’t give in because they are honest. They are “in it to win it” and keep their eyes on the prize.
Words that mean the opposite of “uncompromising” are “difficult,” “obstinate,” and “pigheaded.” They wouldn’t come to an understanding with others that would have been good for everyone because they were too proud. Relationships and jobs often get worse because of this.
Four zodiac signs tend to be the most stubborn. Here are some tips on how to use this quality to your and their benefit, instead of causing disappointment and heartache.
Taurus
Taurus is an Earth sign with a fixed mode that is represented by the Bull. Once they make up their mind, they can’t be moved like a big rock. The key to getting them to be your business partner or love partner is to convince them before they decide. Watch out not to put them down or insult them, because that will only make them run the other way. Being flattering will work as long as it’s real, since Taurus is very good at spotting fakes. You’ve already lost if they think you’re just trying to get what you want from them by making them feel good.
Cancer
In general, Cancers are seen as the most emotional of all the star signs. If you want to get along with them, don’t even think about logic, facts, spreadsheets, or science studies. The Crab only thinks about things based on how they feel about them, and they have a great sense. No amount of lawyerly reasoning will change someone’s mind if their heart tells them that something is right. Instead of using their brains, they listen to their hearts. If you try to tell them something different, you might as well speak a different language. On the other hand, they will always be angry with you if you insult or hurt them in any way, no matter how small. For no reason, they won’t give in just to hurt you.
Capricorn
The Goat is an Earth sign controlled by Saturn. This means that they are sensible, focused on their goals, and reliable. They are almost the exact opposite of Cancer in that you can’t get them to agree with you by playing on their feelings. You might as well be talking to a robot—one that is very smart, useful, and efficient. Sometimes this is a bad trait because it makes them seem like they know everything. However, Capricorn is a changeable sign, which means that if you make a good case, they will listen and often change their mind. Capricorns would rather know the truth than always be “right.”
Leo
Leo is one of the most sure of, brave, curious, and unafraid signs because it is a Lion, and the sun’s fire never goes out. All of these are good things. On the other hand, Leos can be cocky, rude, and unwilling to settle. However, Leo wants to be the smartest person in the room, so much so that they have trouble saying when they’re wrong, even if everyone else in the room can see it. They are very sensitive to the idea that something they did didn’t work out. You can get around this by giving them a pat on the back and reminding them of all the good things they’ve done. Be nice to them until you can’t think of anything else to say. You might be able to get them to relax and be ready to negotiate and compromise if you can distract them and make them forget about a small setback for a while.
