Nobody likes to impose an idea. Nobody. We all prefer to find our truth for ourselves. If this is so: Why are we then trying to make others see that we are right?
Why do not you believe our colleagues that the idea we are proposing is really yours. In the end what we really want to be recognized for our ideas and implement them. Do not forget that nobody likes to feel that they are forced to think in one way or another.
In the second chapter of The Little Prince Antoine de Saint-Exupéry a strange man approaches him and asks the little prince that he draw a sheep. The prince with great kindness access to draw, but the man is not convinced by the model. The prince has a lot of patience will draw three models that does not like. In the end, the prince decided to draw the lamb in a box and tells him that is in there.
Thus our hero managed to make a very effective tactic of persuasion. One man managed to take the picture, exactly the model he had in mind, because as I was in a box, that person could only imagine as I wanted. Thus, The man thought that the lamb inside the box was his idea and not that of The Little Prince.
We therefore consider that if we want our ideas are carried out, be prepared to leave pride aside and let our client or friend, whoever takes the credit for this idea.
The Chinese philosopher Lao Tse wrote long ago: "The reason why rivers and seas receive the homage of a hundred mountain streams is that they keep below them. So they can rule over all the mountain streams. Similarly, the scholar who wants to be above men were placed under them who wants to be in front of them, stands behind. Thus, although its location is above the men, they do not feel their weight, though his place is in front of them, do not take it as an insult "
