How i learn a powerful questioning technique from my daughter

I always think that in order to persuade other effective i need apply a lot of powerful statements that would persuade other effectively. But, sometime ask simple yet persuasive questions would bring better results.

I discovered this method when I observed each time when i complied to my daughter's demand/request and yet she only use a simple questioning technique that i mention below. She gets what she want most of the time when she asks the type of questions i mention below.

It does not only apply to salespersons but for those people who want to persuade other to bring the results they want.

People always says that children are the 'born' salesperson as they know how to ask on what they want. Most of the time they will get what their want when their apply their natural skill that nobody have thought them- to ask a simple but powerful question.

So, what are the question usually asked? and why is it so powerful?

"i want this, now", "i'w like to buy this, now", "i'w like to go there, now"

are these questions sound similar? this are questions that our children often asked in order to get the results they want.

1> in form of question
2>they use simple present tense
3> word-'now' at the end of the question, this is what i think is the most persuasive word ever use to get people to take action!.

To persuade other to take action and get the results what we want is not difficult as we think. Sometime, an easy question like this can bring unexpected results.
