Everyday fight with my daughter for my office chair.
She wants the same chair in which I sit and work.
Most of the time lose and stand behind her

Ah this is a lovely kind of fight.... the battle of the wills, the shaping of their personalities, the development of their assertiveness.
I have a grandson the same age (yes I became a grandmother at the age of 39!)
It doesn't matter how many toys, books or 'children's activities' there are around him, he'd rather fiddle with the cooker knobs, push & pull the fridge door, press & turn the buttons on the washing machine. What's that all about? Are they born with it programmed into them, that they must attempt to go for the things we don't want them to go for, and leave their toys in the corner?
I'd say let her feel what it's like to sit in the big chair for a while. She will see you doing important things, doing paperwork, typing on the keyboard, talking on the phone. She will also sense your mindset when you are doing this, she will pick up on how focused you are & she wants to sit there & feel that for a while. So let her have a sense of how it feels to feel focussed.... as I know your spiritual side I would say this is a good thing for her to be doing so young. My grandson does this for brief moments too. I can look into his eyes & 'hold him' there, allow him to feel focussed.
Its all good stuff.
Love your time with her, before you know it she will be bringing you grandchildren too my friend!
Love & blessings to you both.

ALL THE TIME!!!!
Given that mine are 7 and 8 now. But it looks like you are entering the 'terrible two's" (OH! What a joyous occasion it is) - sorry reliving some memories there - lol!! No it is in their nature to do this with you. They are testing the boundaries to see how much that they can get away with and push the limits. Stand your ground if s/he throws a tantrum turn your back and walk away. If you ignore the bad behaviour and show them that by them doing this you are not going to give in then they will slowly learn that they cannot fight with you to get their own way

She is entering her terrible two's phase, at this age they try to assert themselves and see how much they can get away with.
On one hand my husband tries the give something else and divert the attention and topic thing..
On the other hand I use the be strict and explain in stern but nice voice that what she wants is not going to happen as I need it and she has to understand that.
Though it is the more difficult, drama route to getting things done after a few months we were glad we stuck to my route. She is a much more disciplined, reasonable kid at 3 than any other 3 yr old around. Good luck.

Is there no other chair for your daughter? Perhaps you can coax her interest with another chair. My daughter wanted to wear something else. It depends on the weather, if I approve of it then she can wear it, if she can convince me then she'll get my approval. Your daughter is attached to you and is probably like that where you decide to sit. Show her that you need the chair or she'll have whatever she wants making you losing control of your parenting.

Yes I have fought with my child for my bike when I start to my office but like a child not like an adult and after reasoning with him in his level I give him a ride and then push off.

Im not trying to sound rude or crude here but if you cant get control of her at 1 1/2 what are you going to do when she is a teenager? I suggest you firmly tell her no and if she dont listen you put her in time out. It may take a few exhausting days but you will teach her.
