Karen Lynch presents No Matter What posted at LivethePower.

A few years ago I saw a famous actress being interviewed on T.V. The gist of the conversation was how she Loved acting, how she felt compelled to act and how she would still want to act even if she never made any money from it. Acting was her passion, her joy, her modus operandi for life.

In his classic best-seller Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion,  Robert Cialdini lists the main forces or dynamics which explain how we come to be persuaded to believe what another tells us or asks us to do.
