How to Move to Action: The 3-year Old Way!

Shabd has formulated his own special way of compelling others to move to action for him. It's the Shabd 3-Step process. Allow me to introduce you to this ground-breaking technique, proudly created by my ingenious 3-year old monster!


Step 1: Create a favourable mindset
Step 2: Get your target to agree with you
Step 3: Go in for the kill - make your request!

Allow me to illustrate this model with the help of a real-life demonstration.

Picture this, Shabd, Papa & I are all sitting at the dinner table eating dinner. We're a hungry family, all happily munching on our dinner when Shabd pipes up, "I like Monde de Petite." Both Akash and I politely keep chewing as we know where this might be leading. We don't want Shabd to spend time in front of the computer screen so we both say a silent prayer that he'll let the topic die a natural death due to a lack of response from us.

Oh! But of course! The apple doesn't fall far from the tree now does it?


Shabd is after all, my son! And we Naran's never let a thing go! We're relentless. Like obstinate mongrels happening on a rare morsel of meat after a week of penitential fasting, we lock our jaws onto an idea and refuse to let go.

Not perturbed in the least by our lack of reaction, Shabd goes into his convincing mode.

Step 1: Create a favorable mindset. 
"Papa, I like Monde de Petite" to which Papa replies quite nonchalantly, "Yes, it's nice."
Step 2: Get your target to agree with you.
"They have nice songs don't you think?"To which Papa replies, "Yes, yes they do have nice songs."
Step 3: Go in for the kill - make your request! 
"Let's go put on Monde de Petite Papa." said in the most matter-of-fact voice possible. 

But of course! Duh! If you agree, and agree again, what possible reason could you have not to move to action!

Shabd got his hour of watching Monde de Petite as we sat in amazement as his ability to have played us!

Yep...he's a sharp ou indeed!
