Letting the other person feel that the idea is his or hers not only works in business and politics, it works in family life as well.

First, we have a fire hydrant (hydrogen) with helium-filled balloons (helium) tied to the top of the hydrant. The helium balloons are touching the light bulb (lithium). The light bulb is burning the different berries (beryllium). The berries are being eaten by a smelly wild boar (boron). A car with a bun attached to it (carbon)

we remember more when we are interested and motivated. Chances

Big goals work best when we’re passionate about the subject of the goal (the idea that surrounds it) and its end result (the bigger purpose the goal serves).
