How would you try to convert someone else?

1 Answer

Answer :

I don’t try to change anyone’s core beliefs. If they express interest, then I will share with them some of my beliefs and answer their questions about my beliefs. I will also ask them about their beliefs and mental models. And I will try to help them explore what is leading them to the thoughts or feelings they experience. Nothing else would ever work without resentment and doubt.
