1. STALL FOR TIME
Don't rush your answer, try to buy time to make a decision. Use the phrases:
"I need to think about it."
"Give me a minute to make a decision."
"As soon as I formulate an answer, I'll let you know right away."
"I'll give you an answer by... (name a time)."
This is a good time to reflect on the answer. Approach the problem carefully, thoroughly, and thoughtfully.
