Chinese story
《同学的爱》  The Classmates’ love

在重庆市的一家医院里，有一位女孩儿躺在病床上。她叫小菲，今年十七岁。
There was a little girl lying in bed in a hospital in Chongqing City. She was called Xiao-Fei, aged 17.
二零一二年夏天她还可以在外面跟朋友、同学一起玩儿，但是她现在只能躺在床上，因为二零一二年八月，她发现自己生病了，而且是白血病。
She could still play with friends and classmates outside in the summer of 2012. Now she could only lie in bed, as she found herself sick in August, 2012 and was diagnosed with leukemia.

小菲的高中同学都很难过。为了鼓励她，小菲的高中同学也和她一起做出改变，这让她觉得很多人都在支持她。
Xiao-Fei’s high school classmates all grieved for her. To encourage her, her high school friends also made changes with her to make her feel that many were supporting her.

小菲生病以后，每天都必须早睡早起，锻炼身体。小菲的同学也开始每天早睡早起，锻炼身体。他们让小菲知道，他们正在和她做一样的事。小菲只能喝开水，不能再喝可乐了。小菲的同学也和她一样不再喝可乐。
After getting sick, Xiao-Fei needed to go to bed and get up early to exercise. Her classmates also started to go to bed and get up early. They let Xiao-Fei know that they were doing the same thing. Xiao-Fei could only drink water, but not coke anymore, and her classmates followed suit.

小菲的同学对小菲说：“你不放弃，我们也不会放弃！”
“If you don’t give up, we won’t either,” Xiao-Fei’s classmates told her.

同学们知道小菲需要很多钱治疗，所以大家拿着箱子向路人募捐，最后募到了兩万多元。
Her classmates knew that Xiao-Fei needed lots of money for treatment, so all of them carried boxes to raise money from pedestrians. Eventually, they gathered a total of 20,000.

小菲看到大家这么支持她，她说：“大家这么关心我，我一定会更努力让自己好起来。”
Knowing that all of them were supporting her, Xiao-Fei said: “All of you cared about me so much; I will certainly try my best to get well.”

Juliana (de Brasil) y yo (de México) platicamos sobre la música de los 60s y 70s que se esuchaba en nuestro respectivo país. Lo interesante, es que cada quién habló en su lengua materna, y ninguno de los dos, ha estudiado formalmente el idioma del otro.

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?
