From a young age, we quickly discover how much easier it is to overcome someone's stubbornness by showing empathy toward them. But there is a fine line between doing so and being seen as condescending or even naive. However, as many experienced salespeople know, to 'win' someone over, it's essential to be seen to be understanding of their objection and work with them to find a solution. This week, try to be understanding of someone's situation and then be willing to be seen to provide a solution. The more imagination you offer one, the more likely it is they'll take on board what you're proposing.

If you mix it with enough sensitivity, you could bring healing or work some magic in more than one person's world.
