Keeping it Simple: Persuasion for Beginners

By: Kenrick Cleveland..

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler."-Henry David Thoreau

My daughter, Victoria, is a pianist. As with any instrument, beginning students have to learn a complex body of knowledge before they are able to play an advanced composition. There's music theory, hand position, foot pedals, tempo. . .and then there are the intangibles, the depth of feeling and passion that make a piece what it is. You can't simply expect a beginning student to put it all together and play a Beethoven Piano Sonata.

Many advanced pianists learn complex pieces one hand at a time putting them together once a degree of fluency is learned in each.

There's a long road from beginning student to a sonata.

Breaking things down to their element and practicing, practicing, practicing... that's the goal with learning anything, from the piano to persuasion.

Keeping things simple is very powerful.

Looking back at all the trainers and teachers in this field who weren't successful, I find that the main problem they faced was making things too complex, too soon. Humans are impatient. We want results now, now, now, but many of us don't understand that results come as a result of practice.

So what I started doing is going back to the real basics, to the real simple things and say, 'I've got to master this basic idea until I can do it in my sleep, blindfolded, when I'm exhausted, in the middle of my dreams, in the middle of my third dream, I want to do it that way.'

So I started working to do that and I started to put those things together. But all of a sudden the more complex things just started happening.

Simplicity is profound. And when you are able to master the small steps, the simple basics, you'll find more and more that the bigger picture comes into focus.

Take a few moments and evaluate the core of what you're persuading people to do. What are the simple principles? Focus on these, and watch your results begin to climb.
