VIVA LA RESISTANCE
[Psychology]

I'll give you a hint that can be easily applied to any group of people or even a family. Have you ever heard about the Abilene paradox? The bottom line is that a person counter to the preferences of many very rarely. That is, first you have to pitch an idea to the particular group. For example, at the beginning of the week, make a suggestion to go to the countryside. During the week, emphasize how good it is to be outdoors. Believe me, one of the members will agree with you. And the others will be just aware of your plans. The phenomenon of groupthink is that everyone counts not their own interests. And just so you know, in team building, this paradox is called the "Fake Success of Unanimous Team Decision Making." And here's what I'd like to add: No matter how much you want it, social factors always affect your INNER SELF.
