Personal growth trainings often talk about these types of manipulations with people. And I will tell you about them completely free of charge.
In my opinion, the most important thing is to manipulate without harm to the health of others and oneself. And of course, it is not recommended to use these methods for acts that are punishable by the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Overall, these tricks will make your life much easier and more relaxed.
And so, let's go!
1. Very simple and practical advice - tell the interlocutor: you are right, instead of: I know.
This little manipulation will help you look like a trustworthy person in the eyes of other people. Because after you agree with his position, you automatically become his ally, on an instinctive level.
2. What if you understand that you are being lied to?
You listen to the interlocutor and understand that he is blatantly lying! Even the eye did not twitch, and you cannot bear to listen to this nonsense! In fact, everything is simple here, you need to watch silently and do nothing, absolutely nothing! Don't turn your head, don't say anything, watch in silence. The person will become uncomfortable from the fact that you are frozen. Most likely, he will think that you have understood something, but keep quiet. Some time after the beginning of "aggressive listening", your interlocutor will reveal his cards.
3. What to do if a dispute arises and you understand that you are losing, but you really need to prove your case and make you right?
During an argument, find something on which you could agree with your opponent, pause, look at how his face becomes calmer and after that, gently push your position, without aggression, but persistently. The person saw in you an ally, as in the situation with the phrase - "you are right" and is more likely to agree with you.
4. Funny manipulation: if you reach out with an object in it, most likely your interlocutor will take this object from you. Try it!
5. If a person does not behave adequately, swears, shouts and shows aggression, just silently look at him with slight interest and without negative emotions. By not responding to negativity in your direction, you will provoke the person into cornering themselves. As a result, he will get confused in his own words and stop swearing.
6. Praise people for the qualities, actions, or words that you would like to receive from them.
7. Don't apologize, but thank.
That is, do not say: "everything is in order" in response to an apology, but say - "thank you for apologizing." When they say thank you, always say - please. Since if a person has apologized, it is worth putting an end to it, and not saying: "but not for that!" Well, why not? They just don’t say thank you. So it is with the apology.
8. Be direct when you need something to get things done and get what you want. Don't ask: do you have a pencil, ask: who has a pencil here?
