Mind: Persuasion 4

Persuasion --> Influence --> Attention (interests)


Why justification on failures is imperative?

FEAR!

Yes. Fear is the root. It is the ultimate consequence. And, as a teacher, we don't want our students to fear of failures.

But, again it is not about being scared of something. Here we are focusing on how to influence our students by prevailing them with authentic and time saving suggestions. Their attention is what matter the most for us now.

So, how are we going to utilize this realm?

Allay their FEARS!

No, it is not to TELL them to not to be afraid!

We simply BE there for them until their fear subsides. We present evidence. We offer support.

Tell them stories. And, again we are not telling them how to feel and expect them to feel that way...

Ask ourselves this such a realization...

When we are afraid, which type of person do we prefer to be with?

Mind: Persuasion 1

Remember when I said about we, teachers, are not that persuasive enough in enticing our students' interest for learning. Consequently, they refuse to 'pay' us any penny of their attention!

Is persuasion really the matter?

I say it's ultimate goal really is the matter!

Our students would be willingly and happily paying their attention for what ever offerings that we make since they really have been INFLUENCED by the 'beauty' or 'temptation' exists or at least shown to be existed in the offerings (subjects). And, thats connections actually linearly correlated with themselves.

See the catch... Persuasion is nothing but influencing!

So, instead of saying persuade your students, I would rather say please do influence students to 'buy' our products (for their own sake)...please.

Persuasion --> Influence --> PAYMENT!
