The article is paywalls and I don’t have access. So I have to start by apologizing, since I’m commenting on something I haven’t actually read, but I think this is important. Many people wiser than I likely learned this sooner than I did, but they failed to tell me so I ended up learning it on my own, and I feel I would be remiss if I did not share.
The truth is, you cannot change the mind of another person. Only they can do that. All you can do is plant seeds, and be patient. If they were the right seeds, and planted in the right way, you may observe them growing but it takes time. Sometimes as little as hours or days, but often months or even years.
Every belief has a context it is built on. When you try to change a mind, it involves challenging that context, which is painful for most people. But contexts evolve as experiences are gained, so plant the seeds which will be watered best by those new experiences.
And as you do that, who knows? Maybe you will find seeds from someone else have taken root, and have grown into new beliefs you hold.
