I'm certainly not suggesting that that's what you are implying by this thread! That's not the same as persuading someone in order to get what's best for both of you or best for them, it's pure, single-minded, one-sided psychopathy. If you blindly follow those five guidelines as they are, without consideration of the consequences or any other factors, you'll simply become someone who's willing to do and say anything to get what you want - regardless of whether it's the worst possible thing for the person you're persuading. I'd rather just be myself and be honest with people and live with the consequences - that way I'll grow from the challenges that confront me, rather than practising weakness by avoidance. But I don't think I could actually apply those rules (in isolation) to my sales, marketing or my life. Personally, I like to read the theory - I find it fascinating. If you like the one sentence persuasion report you should get hold of his full version - although it's not cheap.
