Depends on many things mate. Most people are so set in their ideas that they are unwilling to even consider an alternative point of view. Usually these are the people who have had their own views reinforced by their peer's who are equally close minded. You will probably never get your point across to these type of people. The best way to deal with them is to smile and agree, then go off and do your own thing. This not only gives them a false sense of security which you bring crashing down once they find out you have done the opposite of what you promised, but it also gives them a reality check and (hopefully) cause to reconsider their thinking. However, this is usually not the case.. and instead they will call you an idiot who can't follow instructions etc.

With reasonable and open minded people who are not overly judgemental or self assured to the point of delusion, it helps to ask them questions which illustrate your own point. Ask questions which you know the answer to and which you know that the answer will support your own point of view. This makes them think that you are both agreeing with one another AND it means that your own point comes out of their mouth.

If they try to wriggle out of this exchange then you must rely on your own cognitive ability and intellect to enforce your point on them. Make sure you have tested your point of view and that it is not easily disregarded or seen as irrational, ignorant or unrealistic.
