Good core concept of separating your needs from your judgments, differentiating between stimulus and response in our own emotions, and the proto-CBT technique of creating new habits from previously triggering stimulus. However, Rosenberg falls into a trap of manipulating others quite easily when using the technique of clarifying intentions and repeating back what you heard. It's both condescending, in that you must force others to listen to you from a position of authority, and allows a bully to cloak his aggression as the victim not properly understanding his intention.
