Influence

So, on Tuesday I found the topic of influence very interesting. The part that fascinated me the most though, was that there is an appropriate time for each type. It, of course, made me consider how I use my influence in discussions and also how my parents use theirs. I think that some of the way that I use my influence has roots in the way that they use theirs, now that I reflect. Influence goes along with power in that it can make arguments worse. I hope that I can use the knowledge I have about these two things in the future when I am considering an argument or a decision that I have to make or one that a client is having problems with. Once you know more about what you are doing, it really is easier to change that action.
