How many of you are ready?

Can you be open minded to close minded people?

I will try it once and observe the response of that person. Its a waste of time if you spend your time in convincing those people, you will feel discarded at some point of time. Let them brain storm on it. Its there life and they should know the importance. I love to help people and I feel pain when people don't enjoy this beautiful life. But to enjoy this life that particular person should be deserving for it. Everyone should know this simple truth of life that its very valuable and we are here to enjoy it.

I am very open minded and enjoy learning new experiences often, but one thing though I can encourage but cannot convince as no one is changeable for others but for themselves.

It is not an easy task to convince people to be open-minded...Open-minded means you accept what other people generally think is not appropriate or not true, but not necessarily false...Being different from others makes the paradigm change hard, and that is the one that you must overcome when trying to convince people to be more open-minded...Personally, I think I will not suit for that task...

to be an open minded person is good. if i'm given the job to convince people, i will not convince them, i will persuade them. people cannot be convinced easily but if you are you persuade them, there's a big possibility that they will change thier mind and to be a good persuader you need to be a wise person. you need to be good in asking open ended questions.
