The right timing is crucial in influencing others effectively from "summary" of Maximum Influence by Kurt Mortensen
Timing plays a critical role in the process of influencing others. It is not just about what you say or do, but also when you say or do it. The effectiveness of your influence can be significantly enhanced or diminished based on the timing of your actions. Understanding the right timing involves being aware of the psychological, emotional, and situational factors that can impact the receptiveness of your audience. People are more likely to be influenced when they are in a positive state of mind, so timing your interactions when they are in a good mood can yield better results. In addition, being mindful of the context in which you are trying to influence others is crucial. Different situations require different approaches, and being able to adapt your timing to suit the circumstances can make a significant difference in how successful you are in influencing others. Moreover, timing also involves being attuned to the nonverbal cues and signals of your audience. Paying attention to their body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice can give you valuable insights into when the right moment to make your move is.- Mastering the art of timing in influencing others requires a combination of awareness, adaptability, and intuition. By paying attention to the various factors that can impact the timing of your actions, you can increase your chances of effectively influencing others and achieving your desired outcomes.
