朱古力六月同屋企人去做一個禮拜日本，當時正直日圓最低點，買買買就最好不過，而且咁耐冇見可以相聚就非常開心。但係同屋企人去旅行都唔係想象中咁輕鬆，今期就分享下，同爸媽去旅行究竟會產生咩問題，而結束旅程之後，從美食天堂返到美食荒漠就梗係要呻下
PS:呢集出街嘅時候雪條已經嘗試過Chipotle，佢都表示好難食。朱古力：終於唔係我揀食啦😂

Persuasion shouldn't be avoided. It's a good thing. Businesses need to be persuasive.  Whether it's securing a new client, rallying a team, or negotiating a deal, the ability to influence and inspire action is paramount. 

The good news? Persuasion isn't about manipulation. It's about understanding your audience and crafting messages that resonate with their needs and goals. Here's how to hone your persuasive communication skills:

Tailor your message to resonate with the specific interests and motivations of your audience. Research their background, challenges, and communication style. 

People care about how something improves their situation.  Instead of listing features, explain how your product or service solves a specific problem or fulfills a desired outcome. 

Back up your claims with credible statistics, case studies, and testimonials. Data adds weight to your arguments and builds trust. 

Weave compelling narratives that illustrate your points and connect with your audience on an emotional level. Stories are memorable and foster empathy. 

Persuasion is a two-way street. Pay close attention to your audience's concerns and questions. Address them directly and demonstrate your willingness to understand their perspective.

Avoid jargon and technical terms. Use strong verbs, active voice, and concise language to ensure your message is easily understood. 

Speak with conviction and enthusiasm. Projecting confidence makes your arguments more believable and inspires trust. 

Your body language and tone of voice play a significant role in persuasion. Make eye contact, maintain good posture, and speak with a clear, steady voice. 

Clearly articulate the action you desire from your audience. Do you want them to sign a contract, invest in a project, or simply consider your point of view?

大家細個有冇去過屋企附近嘅兒童公園玩遊樂設施，嗰個遊樂場依家仲喺唔喺度？今期雪條，雞胸同醬爆就一齊分享佢地喺遊樂場嘅各種回憶，從細細個去玩嘅公園碰碰車撈魚仔到大個小小之後去長隆迪士尼，有受傷有興奮有恐懼。

EP.12 遊樂場（上）

好，黄山松，我大声为你叫好，
谁有你挺得硬，扎得稳，站得高
九千里雷霆，八千里风暴
劈不歪，砍不动，轰不倒!
要站就站上云头
七十二峰与你峰峰皆到:
要飞就飞上九霄
把美妙的天堂看个饱!
不怕山谷里阴风的夹袭
你双臂一抖，抗得准，击得好!
更不畏高山雪冷寒彻骨
你折断了霜剑，扭弯了冰刀!
谁有你的根底艰难贫苦啊，
你从那紫色的岩上挺起了腰
即使裸露着的根须。
也把山岩紧紧地拥抱!

你的雄姿像千古高峰不动摇

每一根针叶都闪烁着骄傲，
那背阳的阴处，你横眉怒扫，
向着阳光，你进出劲枝万千条!
啊!黄山松，我热烈地赞美你
我要学你艰苦奋战，不屈不挠
看!在这碧紫透红的群峰之上，
你像昂扬的战旗在呼啦啦地飘
