For some people, persuasion has a bad connotation. I often hear students explain that they do not like persuasion because they don't like "selling" things to other people and/or they don't like "convincing" people of anything. I challenge you to consider the following: are we not, more often than not, in a state of persuasion? From the way we present ourselves to other people, to the way we create/maintain social media accounts/profiles, etc. are these not all persuasive acts in which we are formulating people perceptions and opinions of us?

2. How comfortable are you with the art of persuasion? Do you have any experience with it? Be sure to explain your stance on this fully.
