16 Psychological Tricks You Can Use To Get What You Want

Persuasion. There’s a word for it!

But no. That’s not enough. Persuasion merely means repeating to do something that may or may not present us with a favorable result. But how do we make sure that the result we arrive at, is actually exactly where we want to be? There are several ways of doing so, one is by actually moving physiologically toward the target, or by playing mind games to manipulate the circumstances in your favor.

Here are a few examples of rocking it out like that.

1. Offer people something they cannot refuse so that they do favors for you.

 

2. Nod while explaining something, it makes the other person more inclined to agree with you.

 

3. Stare at the hairline of someone’s head you don’t want to listen to, it makes people uncomfortable.

 

4. If someone’s mad at you, sit next to them in a meeting or a social gathering so that they cannot stay mad at you.

 

5. Notice the way people talk, and talk to them in a similar fashion to make them to like you more.

 

6. If you have a crush on someone, be around them physically but pay absolutely no attention to them.

 

7. Stay silent after making a statement, people will tend to agree more.

 

8. Make a less than drastic proposition like having a coffee instead of asking someone out to dinner to get them go out with you.

 

9. Write things in bold to attract attention.

 

10. Use nouns instead of verbs to get people to change their behaviour.

 

11. Scare people to listen to you when presenting them with solutions.

 

12. To get done with your work quicker, think of it as a worthless task to do.

 

13. To get a song out of your head, think of how the song ends.

 

14. If you want someone to believe something, tell them it comes from an elder in your family.

 

15. Move your hands while giving a presentation to grab attention.

 

16. Speak faster in an argument for getting your opponent to give up and agree with you.

Now go ahead and be a Rockstar. 😀
