Applications - Persuasion

Of what I learned in the book, here's a couple of my thoughts on using them:

• Arguments - I need to practice this more. I come from a family that always argued, and rarely sought mediation. I'm still trying to bring myself away from this, and it's become obvious I need to practice more.
• Dramatize thoughts - This is a dangerous one in my opinion. Too much and too little can be much worse than not at all. Currently I try and work from logic, but maybe I need to work on this a bit more.
