As we prepare for the expansion to New York City (and other cities), things will be quiet here until the New Year. In the meantime, I want to share a video with you and let you know that it's SO important now more than ever that you understand who you are, what makes you special and share it with the world. This is one of my favorite videos that shows what expressing yourself is all about. Enjoy.
Happy Holidays!
I hope everyone has a great holiday season. We'll be back next week with two new videos, concluding our Aristotle series and preparing you for the new year. Can you believe it's going to be 2011 in 9 days?!
Modes of Attraction: Part 3 - Logos
This is continuation of a three-part series discussing the three modes of attraction, playing off Aristotle’s Modes of Persuasion. Here, you’ll learn the different methods in which attraction is demonstrated.
Part 1: Ethos
Part 2: Pathos
Part 3: Logos
The logos mode of persuasion, as told by Aristotle, is logical appeal. The word logic is derived from it. Basically, this strategy is used to describe facts and theories that prove someone’s attraction. This kind of attraction actually improves your ethos because it positions the person as more attractive as a result of this new “knowledge.” This can come directly (from the person) or indirectly (from the person’s friend).

This is continuation of a three-part series discussing the three modes of attraction, playing off Aristotle’s Modes of Persuasion. Here, you’ll learn the different methods in which attraction is demonstrated.
Part 1: Ethos
Part 2: Pathos
Part 3: Logos
From Aristotle, the pathos mode of persuasion is an appeal to the audience’s emotions. When you think about people like, Tony Robbins, Brendon Burchard, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, what these guys have in common is their ability to create a positive rapport to and engage a wide variety of people from all over the world. How they do this is by tapping into people’s emotions and creating a strong connection through mutual, relatable experiences.
Modes of Attraction: Part 1 - Ethos
Attraction is a sort of demonstrative emotion, since we are most fully attracted when we consider a thing to be attractive. Generally, there are three means of attraction. Attraction is achieved by a person’s personal character, when their actions make us believe that person is attractive. Secondly, attraction may come through stories, or simple voice cues that can stir emotion. Thirdly, attraction is effected though the words themselves when verbal persuasion can prove their attraction. Aristotle was big on interpreting the modes of persuasion; ethos, pathos and logos. In this three-part series, we will take a look at each one, giving examples in relation to the ability to demonstrate attraction.
Wingman Unapproved
You know how much I love looking at equations for dating - and even making my own. Here is another equation proving man's problem with finding a woman (credit to Campus Socialite for posting the original). I'll give him an A for effort and creativity but a FAIL for execution.
