RULES OF PERSUASION

HERE IS SOMETHING I AM READING ABOUT. I HOPE YOU FIND THEM INTERESTING.

RULES OF PERSUASION

As we are humans, we are currently persuaded to act, that is to say ‘we are manipulated’. But, here are you are the rules of persuasión.

1 IF THEY GIVE YOU, THEN YOU GIVE BACK.

2 WHITE LOOKS WHITER ON BLACK.  

3 AFFINITY. THEN, YOU SAY, WHY NOT ¿? HE/SHE IS SO NICE….
4  WHAT YOU EXPECT… IT WILL BE.
5 ASSOCIATION. IF JAMES BOND WEARS IT. IT IS GOOD. 
6 COHERENCE. “If I said so, ok, I will do  it”. 
7   IF IT IS SCARCE, WE TEND TO THINK IT IS GOOD ¡!
 8   AUTHORITY. “I will do it ‘cos the doctor told me”
 9  BLACKMAIL /RACKET: “If you don’t do it, you’ll see ¡!!”
 10             ATRACTION: “If IT is good on her… it will be on me”.
11                       POWER:”If it is going to bring benefits, i will do it”.

1    12                      BENEFITS /BONUS: My own personal benefits. 
1     13                  UNCONSCIOUSNESS: “We don’t really realice sometimes why.”
        14  ANTAGONISM: “If the enemy is common to all of us, we act together”.

1      15                      “if it happended once…”.  There is a previous act to prove it. 
       16  Written words are stronger tan oral words

1       17.           FAITH. (RELIGION MAINLY)

1      18.           METAPHORS: An indirect idea is easier to understand because reality is hard.

1      19.        SURPRISE: “ Oh, I didn’t expect it, how nice of you ….” It convinces me.

2     20.         ADULATION. “You are so intelligent…!” Then, you believe it, no doubt.

2     21.          SOCIAL PROOF: If so many people are right, it must be right.

2     22.              SIMPLICITY. IT WILL INFLUENVE ME BETTER.

2     23.          ALL OS US ARE ONE. You can’t say no, I have never done it myself.

    THEREFORE, AFTER ALL THE ABOVE, IF WE KNOW THE LAWS OF           PERSUASION, WE CAN AVOID MANIPULATION.

STAYING AT HOME BY ALEXIA LAFUENTE FROM 2BTO

Covid-19

We have been in quarantine for 23 days, and being in quarantine means not leaving home since the coronavirus is here. Of course, being at home is boring even though you spend more time with your family.

What do I do ¿? I study at home, I draw, I listen to music and also I do exercise.  Also, you can spend time reading, thinking or doing yoga. If you were all day doing nothing, you would have very boring days. So, you should use your imagination.

Therefore, we have to stay at home so that no more people die. The virus vaccine is being sought by doctors already.

In conclusion, we are home for the common wellness.

 Depsite the fact that we would all like to go out, we can't.Time passes quickly, 

and finally we will go out, have coffee and be with our loved ones.

NEW LIFESTYLE BY A STUDENT IN BTO

These days, due to the coronavirus, everyone has to stay at home, no matter in what country
you live. We have to obey the government to end this situation as soon as possible.

Personally I don’t have any problem to stay at home all this days because there are a lot of
things to do. First, I wake up early to study and do homework as the school year has not
stopped and teachers keep sending us materials through Google Classroom. At lunch time
we cook delicious meals that we don’t usually cook. During the afternoon I have many
options to have fun: I can watch Netflix series, like “Élite”, which is about a high school for
wealthy kids where a girl is killed. I can read a book, currently I’m reading “El tiempo entre
costuras” of María Dueñas. I exercise every day with YouTube videos of a girl called Patry
Jordan because staying at home is not an excuse to stay inactive. I also keep in touch with
all my friends through Instagram, where we post photos of what are we doing, Whatsapp,
where we talk and thought a lot of online games we play.

But not everything is online, we also should spend time with our parents and siblings playing
board games, watching movies, making cakes, or just talking about our day. I think that if
everyone stays at home and with positive thinking these months will go by by very quickly.

So, come on .... WE WILL RESIST !!!

QUARANTINE AT HOME

Sorry... because of the Covid 19, the Educational authorities have decided to close down all schools until our health is preserved.

Therefore, all the pupils and teachers will have to work on line from home.

TAKE CARE AND STAY AT HOME !!!

GENERATION GAP

FIRST OF ALL, I NEED TO KNOW WHAT A GENERATION GAP MEANS. AFTER SOME RESEARCH WORK, FROM MY HUMBLE POINT OF VIEW, TWO IDEAS STAND OUT AMONG THE REST.

THE FIRST ONE IS THAT GENERATION GAP CAN BE SEEN AS THE DIFFERENCE OF MINDSET BETWEEN  ONE GENERATION AND ANOTHER WHICH INFLUENCES OVER MANY THINGS: ATTITUDE TO FACE LIFE, BELIEFS, VALUES, EXPECTATIOS AND SO ON.
THE SECOND ONE RELATES TO THE FAILURE OF YOUNG AND OLD GENERATIONS OF MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING. THE GAP MEANS DISCONNECTION INSIDE FMAILIES AND CHANGES OF THE REFERENCES OUT OF THE FAMILY .

ALL IN ALL, A GENERATION GAP IS NO GOOD FOR THE FAMILY STABILITY, ALTHOUGH IT GOES WITH HUMAN KIND AND BRIDGES BETWEEN GRANDPARENTS, PARENTS AND SONS NEED DESPERATELY TO BE BUILT.
