Pumping Up Your Persuasion Muscle 
By: Kenrick Cleveland
I'm a new man. Over the last few years I've shed over one hundred and forty pounds of unwanted fat. I have a new attitude toward food and have learned to love the exercising.
At my biggest I was 425-diabetic, near death and certainly no where near being able to bench press anything or hop on a treadmill for sixty minutes. Now I spend at least an hour a day at the gym and I'm feeling incredible with the results improving every aspect of my life.
So why all the bragging? I'd like to take this opportunity to talk about patience, perseverance and self persuasion. These three attributes are like muscles and can be built up just as you build your biceps.
Learning persuasion is very similar to workout out body's muscles. One three hour workout once every other week is much less beneficial than short, frequent periods of study/exercise.
Aside from that, it's much easier to find ten or fifteen minutes a few times a day than carving out a much larger period of time.
For some of us patience is a four letter word. We're movers, shakers, doers, persuaders. We get things done because we don't take no for an answer. And here comes the but. . . But, I implore you to be patient with yourself. Some things come easier to some people, some things come slower. Persuasion is so multidimensional, such a layered and rich body of knowledge that there's very little possibility of learning it and utilizing it all at once.
With that said, I do everything in my power to streamline the process and have made significant advances towards this end. And still, it takes time. It's an ongoing education. We're at the edge of the persuasion frontier and that is thrilling. We are at the edge of the persuasion frontier and that is awe-inspiring. And we are the pioneers so we learn from each day, each session, each exercise, each seminar.
That's a lot to digest. (Back to the food metaphors!)
With our intentions set, with our paths illuminated, we set out to add layer upon layer of persuasion muscle to our work lives, our personal lives and our public lives. Slowly, but surely we will build our persuasion arsenals into tight, toned, compact, (or bulky, depending on your taste), versatile, strong, and powerful tools. I can't tell you how much it thrills me to be your persuasion personal trainer.
