It's not my intention to make this a self improvement/advice offering blog but..... let me suggest this to you...
(reminds of that Peter Cook sketch where he plays McMillan and says "I received a letter, the contents of which are indellibly imprinted on my mind, let me read it to you")
.....when trying to influence oneself and others, there are ways of doing it;
- Evidence (philosophy and history)
- Money (economics)
- Force (Politics)
- CBT (psychology)
- Separation (geography)
- Conversation and love (?sociology)
For examples,
- If you do it like this, you'll achieve what you are trying to.
- Do it and I'll give you a fiver/you'll get rich.
- Do it or else.
- Do this and it 'll make you feel like you're getting what you want.
- Go away so I can get on with it.
- Come on, lets do it together. We'll get it done quicker, we'll both learn from it and perhaps we'll even enjoy doing it. We might even want to do it again.
