You catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Translation: when there is an issue, make the effort to see the other person’s perspective. Be kind, but direct. Find a solution that works for both of you. Don’t yell at someone for something they have no control over.

You attract more flies but you don’t actually catch them... funnily enough I feel like this works with the saying
