  • Post subject: How do you become more persuasive?
  • Reply with quote
I was thinking about becoming more persuasive lately. It's a thought I have had for a while, just the idea of being able to make people do stuff, influence them and make them listen to my ideas. It would awesome being persuasive yet I have no idea how to go about improving myself in this field.

Do you have any ideas how I can become persuasive? Do you know anything persuasion or persuading? What ideas do you have?

Make promises you know you won't keep, lie, give them free stuff you steal from their neighbors.

Yes. If you are nice to people and people start realizing you mean the best for them then they start trusting you and then it becomes easier to get people to do as you want. The trick is you have to legitimately interested in helping them. You can't control them for the worse, or your "help" will become betrayal and they won't trust you anymore. Indeed, they may then try to destroy you. That's my theory anyway.

Play Apples to Apples. I can be very persuasive in that game. Or go to law school.

Try to get in people's shoes. If you understand what they want, it's easier to convince them to do what you want them to.

Never admit that you are wrong, no matter how ridiculous what you say might be. In fact, always insist that you are right. Claim neutrality, regardless of how obviously one sided your views might be. And don't ever fear contradicting yourself...this takes you back to never admitting that you are wrong.
