What Is The One Ingredient Important To Persuasion?
By Ange Fonce
Do you want to become a master storyteller and get people to drop what they are doing to hang on every word that you say?
Yes?
So tell me this... what is the one element in a story that must be present in order to inspire someone take action?
A good plot?
While this is helpful it is not as crucial as what I am talking about.
Well developed characters?
Again well developed characters certainly keep the story interesting and keep the story entertaining... yet it is not necessarily what is needed to get people to take action.
What is it that really gets people to sit up and take notice of what you are saying in your story?
Emotions!
Your story has to appeal to the listeners emotions in order to have a opportunity at influencing or persuading them.
Without emotion the story just falls flat regardless of the plot or the character development.
Do not think so?
The why do we root for the hero in the story and hiss and boo the villain?
Usually because he or she is trying to right some injustice that has been done... usually an injustice that stirs deep feelings about what is right or wrong.
We want to see the underdog succeed?
Then you probably have an idea of the hardships that they have gone through and the crap that they have put up with to get their opportunity to succeed.
So when you are telling a story whether your personal story or not make sure that you are bringing out the emotions in the story that you listener can identify with.
That is how you get people to get up and take action.
By the way using emotion in any goals that you have can also inspire you to take action yourself.
What is more inspiring...
Losing weight because your doctor tells you that you need to drop 20... 30 lbs.
Or having your young son or daughter tell you that they want you to be around for a long time so that they can share as much time with you as they can?
Big difference.
So if you are making goals for yourself for the year... make sure that you are connecting to the emotions that come up for you and take action.
And then make sure you are including emotions in your stories as well and watch as people not only remember and do what you suggest in the story!
