Well, I remember a time that I persuaded my mom to apply for a new profession. At the time, she was not very confident about getting a new job, and she was very shy and afraid of going and answering all the questions. After I realized her emotions, I decided to give her various motivations and examples. First of all, I shared motivations from my own life, based on my own experiences. Then I provided various examples of celebrities such as Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande, who had successfully transitioned to new music or professions. When I persuaded her to pursue her new profession, she decided to go for it. After she came back home, she received very good news and she passed. I was really proud of myself because my help changed her life and boosted her confidence.
