Do you like salespeople? Most people don’t. When people think of salespeople, they usually think of words like “pushy,” or “sleazy,” or “manipulative,” and the list goes on and on. It’s like they study from some secret book of how to manipulate people or something. Why is this? What specific behavior do salespeople exhibit that […]
Sneaky Tricks For Easy Influence
You wanna know a master technique used by politicians to crush it during debates? The good part is it’s totally non-verbal, and will slip right under their radar. The won’t even know what’s going on. They’ll just “feel good” when you want them to, and “feel bad” when you want them to. How would you […]
Are You Out Of Sync?
How’s everything going? Been persuading a lot of people? One thing that’s essential is rapport. Whether you’re asking somebody to buy a $50,000 car or asking your boss if you can leave ten minutes early. Almost everybody’s heard of it. Which means most people immediately think, “Oh, THAT. I already know THAT.” Don’t make that […]
Why Is Six Afraid Of Seven?
I always get a chuckle when I see TV and movie writers using these “reframe” techniques to get a laugh. After all, that’s one of the main ingredients of humor and jokes.

In NLP, there’s this idea that you need to choose an intention before beginning a communication. That way, you can achieve your outcome a lot easier. Say, for example, you see a cute girl, and you go and talk to her. If you don’t have a clear intention, you’ll get halfway through the conversation, and […]
Instant Charisma
Have you ever met somebody who was really charismatic? Somebody that just walked into a room, and while you couldn’t really put your finger on it, they just seemed to be “attractive”? It’s like you stopped in the middle of your conversation to look over at them, just to kind of find out what they […]
What’s Meaning Mean Anyhow?
Long time ago I used to work in a research and development laboratory for a big biomedical company. We used to use all kinds of medical type supplies in our testing. One day, this girl came in with some extra PVC tubing. We used a lot of it, and she assumed we could use it, […]
Is NLP “Natural”?
NLP is a fascinating subject. A lot of people think that NLP was created in some kind of lab, and doesn’t really exist “out there” in the world. This makes sense because there are plenty of politicians and other types who are really good at knowing how to manipulate people. Of course, you can learn […]
