"人们更容易接受一个想法,如果你让他们觉得这是他们自己的。"
— Dale Carnegie
Simplified Meaning:
When you want someone to agree with you, it helps to make them feel like they came up with the idea themselves. For instance, if you want your friend to pick a movie that you like, you might mention a few good things about that movie and let them suggest it. People like feeling smart and in control, so they are happier with a decision if they believe it was their choice. In history, many great leaders have used this trick to gain support and get things done. For example, a boss might subtly guide a team discussion towards a solution they prefer, allowing the team to decide on it on their own. If you learn to present your suggestions in a way that lets others feel ownership, you’ll find people more willing to go along with your ideas.
