I'll be the first to admit, I just don't ever spend time thinking about esoteric topics like this... philosophical discussions like this are simply not my thing and never have been.

I would say there is a difference and persuasion is often mistaken as connection.
Deep thinking today?

Annette,
You did a fine job explaining the difference. Some connections are good and some are not. A

Great post and yes, it's a relationship business, all sales are. In fact all service industries are too if you want true repeat, dependable, referral success.
Besides, a man convinced (persuaded, is still of the same mind).

Of course. I'm connected to many people, persuaded by few.

The simple answer is "yes"! A connection is more enduring!

Yes, and connection may be meaningless unless some persuasion is employed.

Some Connections happen without persuasion. Other times you have to persuade. Building trust, give information or what it takes to build that trust to connect

I do feel there is a difference. We can persuade people without necessarily being connected to them. And we can be connected to someone who we cannot persuade on certain topics. Think politics/election.

Absolutely a difference. Persuasion has the negative connotation of making someone do something - perhaps something they don't want to do. Connection brings someone into the fold as an equal. -Kasey

Attraction / Alignment.
Take each step in a way that makes you feel aligned with 'source'.
The right people to provide assistance/ abundance will come.
The wrong people will not come.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it officer 3:)

To me:
Connection - two people hit it off, instant bond, like they've always been besties.
Persuasion - Either your signature or brains will be on this contract. Or my favorite... "Now pay your NAR dues"

I don't like links in a question and rarely click over. Connection is what I aspire to do with my clients. It makes lasting relationships.

I'm sitting on the ground cross-legged with a cup of mushroom tea in one hand, and a bowl of smoking material in the other hand, trying to figure this out. Oh, wait, that was in 1974... I have sinced move on from that kind of deep thinking.
