The Art of Persuasion

I have always been able to persuade friends and family to watch shows and movies I like. As it has always been an easy task, I have never stopped to think about how I persuade them. My husband and I usually plan to watch the same shows or one of us start to watch an episode and think it would be something that we both might like.
Most of the time we are right, and end up binge watching together. These shows create common topics and inside jokes for us. The recent show we watched was the Netflix Series Atypical, a story exploring the question: what does it really mean to be “normal”? 

We are also half way watching Brown Nation. The ten, half hour episodes of this comedy drama is about an Indian-American man, his family, and his IT business. 

Recently, we have been watching episodes of Departure as a family and it needed us to persuade our children to join us. They were not willing to give up their screen time to watch this travel adventure show together. This is how we persuaded them so we can all watch together.

• We made it a family occasion and watch it only when everyone is present and have time to watch.
• We usually watch it in the evening.
• We make snacks to have when watching this show.
• We talk about the places we have seen on this show, and talk about where we would want to visit. 

This is how we persuade each other to watch shows together.
