So now I’m gonna talk about the time I successfully persuaded someone to do something they were initially reluctant to do. There are many times I persuaded many people to do this kind of thing. But now I’m going to talk about one thing. It was about my sister’s competition. So one day there was a competition from Arabic language to my sister and I have also studied there in Arabic and course so my Arabic teacher said that your sister doesn’t want to attend in this but she has really good knowledge so then Then I asked from my sister why don’t you want to attend in this competition. She said that there are many people whose knowledge are better than me. So then I gave her a big motivation that I also have said like that but I have attended in this kind of competitions and now I have prizes for it. I have never regretted from this. So then my sister got a little motivation from this, but she was not really sure to go there. So tomorrow she decided to go to a competition with a big motivation. She was really happy and then she went and attended in this. Now she has never regretted from this and until now she will thank me from this because at that time she won the prizes. And until now, she has been winning these kind of things and she is really better from Arabic language than me. In my opinion, that’s all.

So now I'm going to talk about the time I successfully persuaded someone to do something they were initially reluctant to do. There are many times I have persuaded people to do this kind of thing, but now I'm going to talk about one specific instance. It was about my sister's competition. One day, there was a competition in Arabic language for my sister, and I had also studied in the Arabic course. My Arabic teacher mentioned that my sister didn't want to attend, even though she had really good knowledge. So, I asked my sister why she didn't want to participate in this competition. She said that there were many people whose knowledge was better than hers. I then gave her a strong motivation, sharing that I had felt the same way but had attended similar competitions and won prizes for it. I told her I had never regretted participating. This motivated my sister a little, but she was still unsure about going. The next day, she decided to attend the competition with newfound motivation. She was really happy and went to participate. Now, she has never regretted it, and to this day, she thanks me for encouraging her because she won prizes at that time. Since then, she has continued to win in these competitions and has become much better at the Arabic language than I am. In my opinion, that's all.
