In potty training my children I found that putting them in underwear and having a potty schedule did the trick. I took them to pick out their underwear at a store, at the time she really loved Barney so it was a treat to wear them. In training my second daughter, we kept complimenting her on being a big girl with really cool underwear. She was so proud. First thing in the morning I would immediately take her to the bathroom, usually by carrying her in a playful way and then pull her drawers down and putting her on the potty chair. We then had a motto, "listen to your body, pee pee on the potty". I also bought a few potty training videos. It took less than a week.
You just have to make it fun and not a battle.
