Have you ever had a day where you didn't feel like doing something you KNOW you needed to do? How about everyday? The fact is sometimes we just don't have the emotional gas in the tank to do something that we know we need to do on the logical level.

They also get into how to effectively use humor in persuasion, as well as some recent peruasion blunders...and ninjas...associated with the Winter Olympics.
