1.	It is acceptable to ask for time to think about the proposal. Say, “We cannot commit ourselves on that point until certain points are clarified.”
2.	Breaks are an effective way to digest counter-arguments and reinterpret issues objectively. It might seem impolite to ask for a break, but it will help the negotiation process in the long run.
