When combining libertarianism and paternalism, choices are never blocked off. People may continue to do as they please. However, the choices are designed 
to influence a particular outcome that will make the choosers better off.

Each time you have the luxury of designing a choice for your audiences, consider the concept of libertarian paternalism. Design the choice not to block off options, but to influence a certain outcome. A simple example of this in action is a pre-checked opt-in box for your online communications subscription. Or even holding your fundraising auction before your gala dinner.
