These two word 'Walking Away' are used as a negative. People are actually described as someone who 'Walks away'.
'Walking Away' is considered to be some sort of a taboo. I personally think its one of the best things to do if you really care about the other people.
Imagine this: The person who love you the most and you arguing your lungs out. Anger in your eyes and just before it spills out in world, you 'walk' away. Sensible thing to do? yes. Why would you want to hurt the person you like with words that might sting later. 'Walking Away' will save a relationship.
I am not sure how this works in the corporate world. We are trained never to 'Walk Away'. But what if you now you are right and you do not want to compromise. Is it right to sit and argue or nod your head and later back out, than just showing what you stand for?
I have unfortunately been involved in so many where I just wished I had the guts to 'Walk Away'. But i guess its kind of hardwired into us. To walk Away is sacrilegious, to 'Walk away' is unacceptable.
I think to 'Walk Away' is fine as long as you come down the same path again.
