How to convince someone to change his mind?
And how can you persuade someone to do something?

As a result of this new labor intensive business venture i got into i found myself doing lots of meetings every week where i had to convince the largest number of people to help me with it.

I discovered that in order to convince someone to change his mind you first need to draw a map of the objections that are present in his mind. Without this map all of your efforts might go into the wrong direction and the person won't be convinced.

In this article i will tell you exactly how can you convince someone to change his mind.

Convincing someone to change his mind

If you are trying to convince four different people to change their minds about something and the four said no then make sure that each one of the four persons said no for a different reason.

Even if the issue is the same each person usually has his own set of objections and mental obstacles. The best way to convince someone to change his mind is to talk to him alone so that you can tackle his own mental obstacles without being affected by the opinion of others. (see How people influence others)

The second thing you must do in order to convince that person to change his mind is to listen to his mental obstacles. Usually people do it the other way around by talking first instead of listening and that's why they fail to convince others. If you did the same mistake and started talking before you know the mental obstacles of the other person your efforts will be in vain.

Before you can convince someone to change his mind you first need to know what is preventing him from changing his mind then you can start tackling these reasons one by one.

The right way to convince someone to change his mind

The other big mistake people do when trying to convince someone to change his mind is that they lose hope when they find the person giving lots of objections while in fact the more you answer objections the less likely is the person to find anything to say after wards and the easier it becomes to convince him.

You don't even have to convince the person to change his mind right away but you can continue on another day. Under the effect of subconscious mind programing each time you talk to the person and answer his objections he will be a little more convinced until he will change his mind in the end.
