Ways to Win a Debate

No matter if it is a  friendly, hostile or a debate competition, sometimes we find ourself struggling hard in them or might not win over a debate and give up. Now there are many ways to win a debate. At some or the other point in our life, we might end up in a debate and not to forget that a debate can come up on almost any issues.
It can be with your friend, partner, colleague or may be anything anywhere.



Ways To Win a Debate

Handling Resistance: Never try and push against Resistance. If the other person is resisting on one point of the matter or product, then don't try to kill the resistance by digging the details on to that person, because they will resist it fiercely with all the power. Instead move to another point. For Example. if the other person is defending on the duration of a product, then rather than going more and more into it, move on to other point like reliability or cost involved

Using their belief system: People often fail to win debated because they cannot use the other person's belief system wisely. Now if a person does not believe in god, and if you bring quotes from bible, it will not work against the other person

Power of Confidence: Remember that confidence can be a powerful tool against any beliefs.Not only that many researches have proved so, but talking confidently can make you win any debates.

Power of Knowledge: Proving that you have a lot of knowledge can create a big impact on the other persons knowledge. It's not important to know everything but catch a point the other person speaks about and speak in depth about it unleashing your knowledge.

Machine Gun Technique: Machine gun technique is when you fire your opponent with questions are arguments repeatedly so that they won't be able to focus on any points. Repeatition makes their subconscious mind feel like more convincing about your words.

Important: Debateing is very sensitive as many people might take it personal or might develop grudges against you. So make sure at the end of the debate you have a friendly chat with the other person to eradicate any ill feelings against you.
