are treated conflicts of interest often arise necessitating compromise from one party to progress how someone interacts with you in the future will depend on their past experiences with you by establishing Dominance early on you teach the other person to respect you and to accommodate your needs in future interactions conversely if you typically take a submissive stance sometimes breaking that pattern can create disruptions in the relationship and redefine expectations ultimately you create a dynamic where the other person is inclined to meet your desires and follow your lead by embodying dominance you encourage others to offer you
their best They won't do this if they think they can mistreat you how people treat you is a reflection of what you allow by exerting psychological dominance you gain the power to dictate how others should interact with you and they will feel compelled to comply with your wishes you don't have to threaten anyone or impose harsh penalties for Disobedience people instinctively respect dominance and will refrain from crossing boundaries if they recognize it They won't question or challenge a dominant figure their inclination will be to show respect while some may attempt to test your limits you
can swiftly demonstrate that they cannot assert dominance over you causing them to retreat if you are naturally dominant gaining authority over those accustomed to your submissive Behavior can be challenging it may feel uncomfortable or wrong to assert yourself but consider this does the other person feel guilty For their actions toward you certainly not embracing dominance is not only acceptable but it is also beneficial therefore take charge and confidently establish your new position of dominance don't worry about others opinions they may try to belittle or undermine you but stand firm and prove your worth with perseverance
you will solidify your new role and Thrive the power of dominance in earning respect in every relationship community and group of animals there Tends to be a leader the inherently dominant individual who confidently takes the reign you can observe these natural leaders during work meetings or in playgrounds where children are playing one person always steps forward to declare let's do this guiding the group by assigning roles and establishing Authority the result others typically listen and follow without question this Dynamic occurs because dominant individuals Naturally command respect human psychology is inclined to recognize and follow a
leader when someone B boldly takes charge and offers Direction people are inclined to listen as a dominant figure you inherently earn respect from others they respect your Authority without doubting or challenging your decisions they simply do as you say often without understanding why they are compelled to follow however what unfolds when multiple individuals exhibit Leadership qualities within the same group a power struggle inevitably arises and eventually one person emerges Victorious while this can sometimes involve conflict it doesn't always require physical confrontation so what enables some individuals to Triumph without resorting to violence many succeed by
standing their ground and projecting confidence determined not to concede others cultivate a desire for their support by offering incentives This may include recognizing others efforts to boost their self-esteem or providing them with greater Authority and a sense of control these Adept leaders operate from the expectation of obtaining what they desire they take rather than give believing they deserve their position of power which often leads to them being granted it this blend of attributes and behaviors creates a strong foundation for gaining dominance and achieving success by Recognizing this you can cultivate an environment where others naturally
respect you allowing you to assert control in all areas of your life chapter 2 defining psychological dominance what does psychological dominance truly entail when you picture dominance you might Envision someone dramatically tearing off their shirt and showcasing their impressive physique an imposing figure that others hesitate to confront while this person might possess A physical Advantage true dominance cannot be sustained through me your strength there will always be someone who can overshadow him perhaps even someone who lacks physical prowess psychological dominance is not about brood intimidation in a gym or on the streets instead it manifests
in the subtle authority of a computer was who walks into a room causing everyone to fall silent and take notice it resembles the girl who confidently declares I want To eat at Red Lobster prompting her boyfriend to concede with out a fight it's the mother whose mere glance can command her child's Behavior similarly it appears in the businesswoman who upon sitting down at the negotiating table secures the deal she desires despite her competitor's attempts to drive down the price psychological dominance is characterized by the power dynamics in relationships where one party possesses the ability to
elicit compliance from Others effortlessly it allows you to obtain what you want without res resistance because others feel no inclination to oppose you they accept your desires with Tranquility often even taking pleasure in fulfilling them as they appreciate the advantages of being in your good graces consequently people tend to avoid conflict with you recognizing the value of keeping you satisfied what is the point of dominance dominance is actually more beneficial Than it is not it benefits people to give a lot to to someone in exchange for protection and guidance it provides the entire human species
with a sense of well-being and peace if they can rely on another for decisions therefore people are hardwired to bow down to the leader they want to please and obey the dominant person when the dominant person no longer seems like a viable leader they are happy to replace him or her but they must always have someone to look up To and follow imagine how chaotic the world would be without leaders you would feel dangerously unsafe with no one to guide you and no laws to shape your behavior so having a leader is important and that
is why people are more than happy to give to a person who establishes dominance early in a relationship if you can establish dominance then you won't be challenged very often however what happens when you don't step up and fill the role of Leader someone else will this is because of that dve people have for someone dominant say you are in a two-person relationship and you fail to establish dominance the other person feels the immediate responsibility to fill that dominant role plus he or she perceives that he or she can fulfill that role without any trouble
from you thus the relationship tilts toward the other person and you are naturally driven to serve this person now say you are part Of a large team at work the leadership position is vacant so if you don't step right up someone else will NAB the opportunity when no one challenges him he accepts his new position and others begin to do his bidding get to the leadership position before someone else does there is some urgency to this so act fast how to become psychologically dominant to become a psychologically dominant person you must start to assume dominance
over everyone you meet right Away without fear jump into the dominant leadership ship position the minute anyone threatens that refuse to back down or apologize for being the leader soon most people will start to listen to you and do what you want try this simple experiment to prove that you can be dominant if you want to be go up to a random stranger with a cup and command him or her to throw it away for you chances are if you say it like a command rather than a request they will do it Now try this
by asking people nicely and assuming a submissive posture people will probably scoff or laugh and say why don't you throw it out yourself this proves how being dominant is all about establishing dominance early you won't be challenged if you do it right away talk to people like they can't even question what you say don't phrase things as requests but instead as orders you can be polite and say things like please but you don't have to ask them as If they have a choice in the matter if you assert that people don't have a choice when
it comes to pleasing you you or displeasing you you establish your dominant status however when someone is dominant to you your natural instinct is to obey them you don't want to rock the boat your instincts are instructing you to bow down to this leader but you can revolt against this Instinct and thus establish true dominance stand up to the person who orders you around give your Own command and refuse to do his or her bidding you will shock him or her and disrupt the relationship pattern that he or she is trying to set the thing
about dominant people is that they just expect to be dominant they don't ask for it or hope for it they demand it and don't even consider whether or not they deserve it they don't second guess themselves as they give orders or wonder if they are being rude by barking at people to do what they want so it comes As a great surprise when their Authority is challenged they will be thrown off and you will earn lots of respect with your boldness become like a dominant person believe in yourself and believe that you have the right
to control this situation and Order people around expect others to follow you when you run into another dominant person throw him or her off and be even more dominant by expecting even the most dominant people in the room to Bow down to you the winner is the person who holds out the longest so the winner will be you if you refuse to give up fake it to make it if you are not a naturally dominant person and I'm assuming you are not since you are reading this book you sometimes have to fake it just to
make it this means that until you get used to being the dominant figure in relationships you must pretend to be dominant it helps to read about dominant traits but watching and Learning is even more effective teach yourself what dominance looks like by observing dominant people you know observe your boss or your shift lead or your team leader observe your over bearing mother-in-law or the head nail tech at your local Salon observe construction crew foremen and Powerful actresses in interviews on day shows or nighttime talk shows observe politicians as they take the stand and especially as
they campaign notice what these people Share in common these people have no shame they believe in themselves they walk up onto a Podium or sit on a chat show couch or approach the meeting Roundtable and unapologetically start telling people how it is they don't ask for permission to speak or make a choice and they don't apologize for taking the lead they are Frank Unapologetic and bold in the way they address others and there is the implicit statement that they will not be challenged because what They say is law now it can also help to watch
a weak leader maybe there is someone at work that everyone disrespects who somehow made management watch how he avoids eye contact and Shakes as he addresses the room he ask people to please listen to him and to possibly consider his ideas he is constantly seeking approval both with his words and his body language you get the sense that you can disobey him or question him without consequence because He is basically inviting you to challenge his authority observe him to learn how not to be as a dominant person model your behavior after powerful leaders and entrepreneurs
they're successful for a reason this is because they see success they are dominant by command not because they ask others to let them be dominant no one will give you what you want and they certainly won't give you respect if you ask for it you have to demand it and seize it so When you were starting out act like a dominant person and demand what you want even if you don't feel very dominant pretend to believe in yourself shamelessly ask for what you want even if you were secretly cringing inside fake that you you have
ultimate confidence in everything and you will consequently appear confident over time you will learn to actually be the way you pretend to be and you won't have to fake it to make it anymore this is Because your brain learns by example so if you act a certain way and you see that you don't suffer bad consequences you train your brain to accept acting that way is normal and even good your brain gets used to it that behavior becomes easier as time passes if you enjoy rewards as a result of your new Behavior your brain will
be even more inclined to adopt this new behavior all of the time and get more rewards being dominant takes significant courage it Can take guts to demand what you want especially when you were used to asking for permission or requesting things but when you start to ignore that fear and demand what you want anyway you notice that you get what you want the fear Fades when you learn that it does not kill you the worst thing that could happen is that someone tells you no if this happens you don't have to stand for it use
your indignance at being told no to Get mad and do something about it let that resentment fuel you to persuade or coers this person into giving you what you want don't stop until you get it being dominant is an attitude that you hold within yourself more than anything then it manifest in how you approach and treat others other people can't deny you or refuse you you when you have the energy of a dominant person but in order to become dominant you must feel dominant You Must Believe in your Ability and right to dominate others if
you don't feel this way it will manifest and you won't be properly dominant thus you won't get your way people are pretty sensitive and can sense when you are hanging back or afraid so don't feel this way force yourself to feel dominant and Powerful fake the feeling and let it fill you so that it manifests strongly who can you be dominant over you can be dominant over anyone and everyone it is ultimately your choice about who you Seek dominance over it is possible to become dominant over any person but there are situations where you may
find that dominance is not ideal let's consider some examples at work you may find that being dominant over your boss creates power struggles that are not conducive to a healthy work environment you may find that being dominant over certain strangers leads to resentment if being submissive is best for the unique situation then be submissive however you Have already read about the benefits of dominance so certainly try to be dominant assert your dominance psychologically over as many people as you can the more dominant you are the more power you have you should always have a degree
of dominance over your children your children need you to serve as their role model and teacher they will not learn anything from you if they do not respect you as a leader therefore you must establish a form of Psychological dominance this does not mean that your kids are your slaves or that they have no voice of their own you can give your kids freedom to express themselves and find themselves but you must be the authority that they listen to this is the only way that you can raise them right and instill in them the values
that you want to instill as a boss project leader or other type of leader you must always establish dominance as well do not fool yourself Into thinking that being everyone's friend will help you be a better leader that strategy will backfire when you must discipline people or handle hiring and firing it will also backfire when people need a strong decisive lead on some particular Mission or task therefore you must establish dominance right off the bat over those who are supposed to work under you treat your place in the organizational hierarchy as yours and don't let

they make people turn heads when they walk by no one challenges what they say in relationships these people get what they want and are not afraid to ask for changes or new behaviors they also make the majority of the decisions and they're the ones that others ask for Permission to do things so what is their secret being alpha or psychologically dominant is to know exactly who you are have you ever had a manager or boss who was insecure you probably wondered how this person got the leadership position that he or she is so terrible at
leaders who are insecure are not able to provide clear Direction and guidance to others because they do not have a clear picture of who they are or what they want they also fail to have certainty that Inspires confidence confidence in others their lack of security makes people doubt them which in turn makes people want to follow someone else or take overpower to be truly Alpha you need to have a firm and obvious picture of who you are and what you want you also need to strip away all doubt uncertainty and insecurity you can't feel guilty
for wanting what you want or for demanding that other people follow your lead you just need to want power and take it Without any shame guilt or reservation another secret that Alphas possess is a lack of social anxiety or reservation this does not mean that you must become a social butterfly or an extrovert on the contrary a true leader can be an introvert and still be successful the true secret is to stop holding back with others do not fear speaking first telling others what to do or asking for what you want you will be surprised
at how easily you will get what you want if You simply ask for it without any shame being ashamed of asking for something will make others feel that you are unsure of yourself so they will not feel comfortable meeting your demands you must have no fear in order to inspire confidence in others it is time to think of yourself as an alpha when you think of yourself in this way you will become this way you will start to act as an alpha if you believe that you are it some warnings you have read that there
Are countless benefits to being dominant but there are some downsides that you must understand before you become dominant these downsides do not mean that you should not become Alpha just be prepared to encounter some problems as you journey into the alpha mindset the first thing that will happen is that you will have to be strong when disaster strikes others will turn to you for help people will ask you for advice guidance and suggestions you must constantly be Serving others and making decisions for them as the alpha people look up to you meaning that you must
be tough and strong you must think fast and think on your feet at times this strength can feel a bit lonely it can even become exhausting you may simply wish that you had someone to tell you what to do for once someone else to make the decisions you may wish that you had someone to give you approval but you are really on your own it is all up to you this power Can feel lonely at times s don't let that get you down remember how bad relying on others felt and appreciate your new found power
understand that you know what is best so it is great that you have the power to make decisions without being able to turn to anyone else also keep in mind that you never need someone else's approval and your gut is always right you don't need to be told that you have done well or that you have made the right decision just be Confidence in yourself the second thing is that you will face plenty of criticis ISM and some of it will sting you're not going to please everybody look at major world leaders are they the
most popular people on Earth absolutely not people make fun of them fight with them and tear them down the media scrutinizes them from their fashion sense to their political decisions to their leadership styles in any organization the most complaining will be about the management And plenty of people will have contradicting opinions and complaints about how things are run powerful celebrities and political leaders face the most danger and death threats and require massive security details for their own safety so understand that as an alpha and as a dominant leader you will endure a lot of naysaying
you will have people who disagree with you and decide to let you down by being as mean as they can be you will have people who Try to undermine your power and sabotage your reputation in order to take power from you and gain it for themselves life will become a Power struggle where you must deal with a lot of enemies you will not be friends with everybody and people will not sing your Praises all of the time but as an alpha you don't need the approval of others you can survive without it and be confident
in your decisions another important warning is that being Alpha will not serve as a Magic bomb for your relationships just because you gain power and cut down on being bossed around or used by others does not mean that your relationships become peachy you can have power over people but you cannot control how they feel think or act this means that your relationships may continue to face problems if your partner is inclined to disagreeing with you your relationships may also rearrange or even crumble as other people resent the new balance of Power do not assume that
your interactions with those in your life will magically get better overnight or that life will become perfect one you become dominant one thing a lot of people don't understand is that being dominant is largely about setting boundaries no people cannot treat you however they please if they do they will be in trouble there will be consequences be prepared to have to discipline and reprimand people who challenge or Disrespect your boundaries people will try to act as if you are the one in the wrong for calling them out for violating your boundaries they will never apologize

much space but wide free movement suggests that you are confident always keep your head high two as a straight neck denotes confidence stop shrinking away from people or trying to take up as little space as possible because this all indicates that you have little Confidence and are more submissive to other people the more space you take up the more you get people to notice you and the more you declare hey I'm here and I'm proud of it I contact any confident person is unafraid to make I contact with anyone and everyone meanwhile people who are

show them off if it helps you make eye contact more easily keep Your eyes up much like making eye contact you also want to keep your eyes level most people have a tendency to look down as they walk along they want to focus on themselves rather than at other people but look at truly confident magnetic people and you will notice that they hold their eyes level making eye contact with others easier they are not looking down all the time nor are they spacing out and looking up so look forward and keep your eyes level Walk
With a Purpose Walking With a Purpose suggests that you know where you are going and you lack any nerves regarding your destination others do not doubt or question you when you move with purpose so keep an even gate and don't Scurry creep slouch or slink along move with a certain speed but don't run as if you were scared make it possible for others to walk along with you doing this invites people to subconsciously want to join you toward your destination add a Good posture as covered above to this and you will look very confident Smile

have to be a supermodel to look good just groom yourself well practice good hygiene smell good and dress and flattering well-fitting clothing it is better to own one nice suit than a thousand cheap pieces of clothing so invest in a few good pieces to wear when you want to make a good Impression and spice up your wardrobe with various cheap accessories instead of various cheap clothing items you would also be surprised at what a difference a good haircut can make in your appearance so invest some money in getting your hair done by a professional and
ask your stylist to change up your hair to be the most flattery keep your hands out where others can see them avoid stuffing your hands in your pockets also avoid tucking your hands Into your armpits and keep keeping your arms crossed avoid using your phone as a nervous crutch that you pay attention to instead of paying attention to the people around you these actions are all the guilty actions of a nervous person who is afraid of social contact they denote a serious lack of confidence keeping your hands where others can see them makes others subconsciously
trust you and like you more keep calm fidgeting and doing things like biting Your nails tapping your fingertips on surfaces shuffling your feet and playing with your hair all suggest that you are nervous no one wants to follow a nervous person as a nervous person is clearly lacking in confidence avoid fidgeting in any way and instead appear cool collected and confident when you are calm you show that nothing phases you and you know what you were doing or talking about this instills confidence in others and makes them want to follow You be firm with your
movements you do not want to appear like you are hesitant and full of Doubt so show off your confidence by being firm and Resolute in how you move your movement should be precise and full of confidence when you set something down on a table do it with purpose when you enter a room look like you have a mission to do and do it without hesitation or holding back move like you have a job to do and you are doing it without any reservation Practice touching other people as much as comfortable possible the more you touch

to people who are not so powerful you will notice a huge difference this is why you need to tweak your appearance to become more dominant Pik taller people are more likely to walk away from interviews with the job they're more likely to score more dates too the taller you are the More dominant you appear where shoes to add to your height you may also try a flattering hairstyle that add some height to your frame as well as clothes that make you seem taller wearing pin stripes or vertical stripes creates the illusion that you are taller
and thinner or we more blue or red for some reason blue is a very dominant color so is red were these colors in your clothes or makeup red will also make you more attractive to the opposite sex so it is A great color for a first date or a night at the club picking up Babes it can make you appear more professional and more of a go-getter to others when you show up in blue or red to a job interview meeting or other sort of social outing accent a unique feature a unique feature is something
that draws people's attention to your face it makes you stand out instead of being ashamed of your unique features draw attention to them with makeup or other techniques To bring them out if you have a big nose for instance be extremely confident about your nose and draw attention to it think of John Lennon instead of hiding his nose with makeup he showed it off by perching tiny round glasses on the bridge of it a look Fierce a sharper fiercer face is associated with more intelligence and competency so try to make your face look like this
using makeup and other tricks avoid looking compassionate kind or babyfaced unless You want to be judged as incompetent also while you can smile avoid smiling too much with your eyes and looking too kind wider faces are more dominant having a wider face is associated subconsciously with more testosterone which in turn can make you look more dominant even as a female you can widen your face using makeup if you have a naturally wide face or square jaw emphasize that avoid weird or crispy hairstyles Wild colors and the like Belonging to an alternative culture is cool but
it can do you a disservice if you want to appear dominant hide your alternative streak and have normal professional looking hair that flatters your face shape also wear more professional clothes using one symbol of your personal style such as a cool tie or unique earrings can add to your dominance by showing that you are unique and unafraid to be yourself a short hair short hair is more associated with a Masculine and crisp streamlined personality it suggests that you for someone to be noticed and taken seriously women who have short hair and Men Who keep their

ordering for them without asking however if you want to make a memorable impression on a date or during a Business event it's beneficial to find out what others enjoy before placing their orders by confidently taking the initiative to communicate your choice is you convey a strong and assertive Persona don't hesitate to offer recommendations either take the opportunity to say I really enjoy this dish because it has this flavor by suggesting what someone else might order you're establishing a sense of authority even if they choose not to follow your Suggestion it's worth making the attempt initiate
conversations always be the one to speak first take charge of the conversation and guide its course engaging early speaking over others and maintaining your stance against any objections enhances your dominant presence when you confidently introduce topics offer opinions or address uncomfortable subjects you robustly portray your Authority try this when you enter a room start speaking immediately And Gage who pays attention most will halt their activities to listen particularly if your voice carries it may require practice to become a powerful communicator but once you experience the influence it brings you'll find it addictive this skill is

enter someone's mind without his or her knowing then you could do whatever the heck you want dark NLP enables you to gain an edge over people and guide them to do what you want it is best to use for power because it ensures That you can enter someone's mind and control him or her to a degree start to use dark NLP to gain dominance over others use it to show people that you are the boss and you mean business make people respect you and obey your Authority without even knowing why essentially dark NLP involves hypnotizing
someone which means that you have a silent and hidden control over their minds establish report the first and foremost key to gaining dominance Over others with NLP is to forge a special rapport with him or her NLP makes it easy to establish a rapport with a person it enables you to find how a person likes to communicate then you communicate the same way the person you are communicating with understands you better and feels a bond with you as a result thus he or she connects with you and is more likely to want to please you
he or she also understands what you want and can give you what you want thanks to Clearer communication one secret many people fail to realize is that there are categories in communication everyone has a personal preference about which category he or she falls into finding a person's preference enables you to communicate with you incredibly effectively and guess what it is quite easy to find how someone prefers to communicate you just have to pay attention people tend to communicate using one of five senses these senses Are gustatory taste auditory sound visual seeing kinesthetic feeling and old
factory scent auditory Visual and kinesthetic are the most common you can tell how someone refers to communicate based on how they speak an auditory person will use lots of auditory phrases such as do you hear what I'm saying or that sounds good a visual person will speak more in visual terms saying things like do you see what I'm saying or I see observe how someone speaks and then Adjust your phrasing to match their preferred sensory perception another way to establish Rapport is through mirroring mirroring is where you wait a few seconds before repeating someone's movements
if someone leans toward you lean toward them if someone looks down look down people tend to like those who share common actions with them so mirroring enables people to feel closer to you when you become dominant you want to lead someone to mirror You by making Small movements that are easy to mimic when you notice that they are mirroring you you know that you have gained a level of control mirroring someone gives them dominance over you so you can start by mirroring them a little bit to establish Rapport then start leading them to mirror you
instead mirroring is elevated in power when you attempt to verbally find things in common with someone and to impress someone with the things you too share in common have a Goal NLP states that you need to have goals when you communicate with others having a clear goal in mind makes you more dominant because it makes you a leader you know what and why you are communicating and where you want to guide someone so you are able to be a leader more easily with goals in mind always set goals for your interactions with others use anchors
anchoring is a powerful way to gain control over people mentally through NLP by creating an Anchor you make someone form a subconcious association between something and an action so for instance if you want to make a person do the dishes play his favorite song when he does them this makes him associate dishes with his favorite song and then he will do the dish whenever you play the song you can also take small things such as tapping motions or colors to form images in people's minds that make them think of something else another way To create
an anchor is to act on someone's preset associations basically to become a dominant figure start to mimic and even try to talk like and look like a person that the person already considers dominant for example a lot of people consider their fathers dominant figures so maybe try to become more like their father figures if your boss steps down and you get the position try to mimic the old boss to get people to accept you in your new role and start to Treat you like the boss without question or unnecessary power struggles once you form the
anchor that you are the dominant figure people will start to respect you be quiet there's a little NLP power hack that you're going to love it's very simple you just have to be quiet you will be amazed at how being quiet makes others nervous and gives you a strange sort of advantage over others when you refuse to speak others will scramble to fill in the blanks and will Keep talking they will get nervous wondering why you are so quiet and they will start to care about what you think they will start to feel as if
they're dying to find out what is going on in your mind guess what that means you are now dominant no one would care that much about your opinion unless you have dominance over them quiet can work in a variety of settings the more quiet you are around people you already know the more they will notice and wonder why you Are keeping Mom it can also work when you are having a meeting with an important client or when you were supposed to discipline someone your quiet will drive the other party crazy as they wonder what you
are thinking and what you're going to do but quiet does not necessarily work with strangers they will probably just think you were shy and move on without caring about what you think leading leading someone to think a certain way is a clever way to Gain influence and dominance without even having to assert your Authority in any way or at any time you lead someone to think of something by using a powerful keyword that keyword guides someone down a line of thinking and then the person reaches a conclusion or idea on his or her own with
minimal input from you you just made someone think a certain way that is certainly a dominant behavior let's consider an example someone is overweight and you want them To lose weight but saying so will only get you in trouble and Trigger resistance so you start talking about someone else's diet or mention the word diet this will make the other person aware of the word diet he or she will start thinking about dieting especially if he or she is exposed to the word ample times then he or she will conclude that a diet is the ideal
solution to his or her weight problem and you did not have to say a thing or tell this person What to do he or she came to the inclusion on his or her own leading can also work if you want to get someone to do something say you want Italian food for dinner later your friend is leaning more toward Chinese so at some point during the day lead him to think about Italian by mentioning an Italian term or even something like Rome to put Italy on your friend's mind you can use leading in regular conversation
to guide it in a certain direction just mention a certain Discreet word to make the person start to think of the desired new topic this is a great trick to pull on first dates when you want to lead the conversation to sex and possibly have sex later or it is a great way to guide someone to want to talk about business during a pleasure meeting this is just a sneaky little way to get dominance without showing your hand mind hacking mind hacking is a subtle and secretive way to hypnotize people using content writing or speaking
You can hack into someone's mind and make him or her respect you more by hacking someone's mind you gain a lot of control and hence dominance over his or her thought processes you gain a special sort of access into that person's self that gives you great control and influence you can essentially reprogram someone's mind using this technique mind hacking works by making someone really focus on you you NAB someone's attention possibly by discussing a powerful Interest of the person's then you show your Authority or you use their renewed Focus to get them to drop all
guard so that they are really listening when you say something to them you also can lead people to make better decisions using mind hacking voice some skepticism when a person is about to make a bad decision do not say why you're skeptical when you voice skepticism you poison the person with doubt he or she starts to wonder what is wrong with his or her decision Then he or she will analyze it and come to his or her own conclusion when a person reaches his or her own conclusion it is often more powerful and profound than
if you make the conclusion for them you can influence people to make better decisions this way you can also guide someone to find his or her own Solutions instead of providing advice ask them leading questions such as what do you think is best or what do you think your role model would do in this situation These questions make someone start to think of a solution on his or her own then he or she is more likely to stick to that solution and put it to good use Loops is a great way to lead people you
use positive Loops to build people up and make them feel empowered and capable say things like you are one of my best workers even if the person you are speaking to is not in fact a great worker saying this puts your subject in a positive spin of thoughts and they Will want to become a better worker to live up to that great label you placed upon them try out positive Loops to make people want to be better and to make them feel better they will like you more and will try their best for you as
a result being hateful and negative will usually only achieve the very opposite result you gain power over people by making them feel so when you make someone feel a certain way you just gain some dominance learn to make people feel Certain ways with the loops you use do not be afraid to use your words and express your thoughts this will inject yourself into the minds of your subjects lending you power find out how people want to feel and then give them that feeling to make them more interested in serving you punish them for not obeying
by making them feel in a way they hate use power words certain words just have powerful connotations using them will make you seem like more of an authority Than using more submissive or weaker words speaking with power words will give you a certain level of dominance so always use them when you speak to others let's compare a few words and phrases so that you get a rough idea of what power words are stuff versus a specific item name steal versus take I will versus I'll try need versus want you must do this versus you should
do this or you can do this if you want will you instead of Can You Well versus should must Versus have to possess versus SC or have did you do it instead of was it done do do you get an idea of how some words and phrases are just a bit more powerful they carry more urgency they denote more power and desire when you use these power words you impress people with your Authority as well as the importance and urgency of a situation so use more power words in your speech here I will list a
few power words you can pepper your conversation with must require will need Hurry save run any type of direct action verb avoid passive action verbs for example say do this instead of this must get done make commands not requests when you request that someone does something you are being polite yes but you are basically submitting to the other person suggesting that you want them to do something for you and they have the option of saying no go up against another Alpha person and they will not Be afraid to say no to a request however if
you phrase things as commands or orders you make more of an impression as an alpha and you make the other person feel that there is no option there is nothing wrong with being polite and saying please and thank you remember being Alpha does not being a jerk but do not be mousy and make requests anymore there is a big difference between saying can you please put these over there and please put these over there see that Difference start using more commands and see how people are more likely to do what you want you show off
your Authority when you make commands and others feel the need to respect you rarely will someone rock the boat and try to defy or argue with you when you make a command generally people will respect what you order and rush to do your bidding voice your opinions your opinions make you who you are you are probably afraid to voice your opinions Mainly because you know others will argue with you in addition as a submissive person you think that your opinions are not important and do not mean that much to others but in reality most people
will not argue with your opinion if you express it adamantly enough also an opinionated person is an annoying person but also a dominant person who makes himself or herself heard voicing your opinion will give you miles of dominance over someone now I'm Not necessarily talking about things like political opinions I'm talking more like telling people what you think of their actions or ideas say someone asks you what you think of his new presentation and you do not like it you can gain a lot of dominance by expressing your dislike and then offering constructive criticism on
how to make his presentation better or say someone does something bad saying that's not cool will strike shame into his Heart and make him reconsider his actions when you express your opinions you basically tell others that you cannot be pushed around you also tell others that you are not afraid to be yourself and express what you were thinking finally it gives you a chance to tell people what to do as they will strive to gain your favor if you express this favor being the minority opinion will also make you stand out from the crowd it
makes others notice you a mousy Person is not noticed but an alpha person is so be Alpha and state your opinion even if it goes against the grain do not be apologetic or afraid to be your authentic self never say sorry but I think just unabashedly State what you think and then see what happens you will be surprised at how much respect you gain by being so authentic people will start wanting to please you more and they will actually care about what you think you just have to make them Care by expressing yourself no one
will care if you never speak up they will assume you agree and they will not pay you anymore mind chapter 4 the art of subtle influence did you realize that being overtly dominant isn't a necessity if you can subtly guide someone to do what you wish you are still exerting control as that individual is performing an action they might not have chosen otherwise this form of influence allows you to maintain Authority without the Other person being aware reducing their resistance at times a more nuanced approach to dominance is preferable you may not want to assert
yourself physically or take charge directly instead you might wish to maneuver around someone who intimidates You by employing subtlety and persuasion you can achieve your objectives without the other person realizing it allowing for Effective influence over those who hold power over you be it overbearing family Members Elders or superiors in the workplace this strategy can help you secure what you desire while avoiding overt confrontations and stress inducing result istance historically individuals in submissive roles have relied on persuasion to fulfill their needs for instance many subservient Asian women have mastered the art of persuasion and mental

feel as though they have no alternative if the potential losses outweigh the gains of an action people are more likely to comply to avoid negative consequences thus helping others recognize what they Stand to lose can significantly motivate their actions finally you don't always need to resort to a system of rewards and penalties subtle language and key phrases can shape someone's thought process utilizing subliminal cues is another intriguing and impactful method to influence Minds quietly as this subtlety often goes unnoticed prepare to delve into these three methods of influence and in doing so claim a new

matters to the individual and use that insight to offer appealing choices for example if someone isn't interested in Fitness stressing the importance of getting fit won't resonate with them however if they value social connections and status you could highlight how engaging in an activity May enhance their social standing and Networking opportunities reciprocity when you do someone a favor they may feel compelled to return the J gesture this tactic may not resonate as well with particularly dominant individuals who operate under a sense of entitlement but it's still worth considering perform a significant favor for someone and
later request their assistance in return liking people are more inclined to do things for those they like cultivating a positive rapport with someone in a Position of authority can lead to valuable rewards aim to be genuinely likable and you may find that your effort yield favorable results show care for the person make them feel appreciated and in return they are likely to treat you better and Grant you more of what you want gaining their trust can lead to additional advantages while it may feel uncomfortable or even unethical being excessively agreeable can be very effective make
someone feel Good there are numerous ways to enhance someone's mood when you uplift others they become more willing to support you in return even appealing to a dominant person's emotions can earn you significant privileges utilize strategies like flattery and physical touch to cultivate someone's favor lightly touching someone during a conversation or extending a handshake for a moment longer can create a dopamine rush and strengthen your bond Additionally maintaining warmi contact as opposed to an intense stare while smiling and occasionally looking away can make your dominant counterpart feel empowered and more open to your suggestions the
impact of words should not be underestimated a simple compliment or expression of gratitude can go a long way as people enjoy feeling good about themselves identify a person's insecurities and reassure them of their strengths complement their Leadership qualities and character these affirmations will boost their ego and enhance their fondness for you moreover offering someone a comforting hot beverage can positively shift their perception of you subtly influencing them to view you as warm and approachable thereby increasing their desire to please you threats threatening someone's needs or sense of sanctity by pointing out what he stands to
lose is an excellent motivator for most people You do not want to overtly threaten someone in order to avoid a power struggle instead you want to act as an advisor serving his best interests point out ways that he may lose out if he does not take a certain action tell him that you care about him and just want the best so you would hate to see him miss a great opportunity scarcity the threat that supplies are running out or something is in limited availability can drive someone to purchase it or do it Before it is
too late you can use this principle of influence to your advantage by making someone feel that he must do something because the opportunity is passing by quickly speak to your subject with a degree of urgency and point out that the opportunity is only here for a short time he will probably jump on it to avoid wasting the chance extreme loss learn what your subject cares about that way you know what he has to lose then find ways to work that into your Persuasion most people care about their loved ones their jobs and their social status
so you can safely employ those as threats rather often tell your subject how he stands to lose something he loves if he does not take action of some kind for example if you want him to stop working late and oppressing you you can mention how his wife is resenting his late nights urge him to go home and spend some time with her for extra wph make something seem like both a loss and A gain he will gain what he loves if he does something or he will lose it if he fails to do it leading
questions a leading question plants an idea in someone's mind getting him to say something thing or make a conclusion on his own leading questions are powerful ways to get your way yes framing in yes framing you get your Superior to say yes and Grant you permission by Framing his mind to say yes you start by asking a series of questions that make him think Yes is the weather nice don't you love that coffee these are some of the yes questions you can make him answer to frame his mind in an affirmative State once he has
said yes a few times ask for your favor and notice how he says yes idea planting the minute you bring up an idea or topic you put it in someone's brain continually mentioning it especially in casual conversation can plant the idea in someone's brain enough to make him think about it a lot then When he is forced to make a decision the idea that he has mulling over all day will be on the Forefront of his brain and he will propose it like his own idea he will be open to your idea because he thinks
it is his own let's take an example you want your boss to go with blue on a presentation but he is being resistant to the idea so mentioned blue a lot in casual conversation perhaps even were blue and set blue things around the office bring him coffee in a Blue mug blue will be on his mind and he won't realize why then when it comes time for him to pick a color he will settle on blue and think that it was his own idea leading literally sometimes physically leading a person in a certain direction exerts
a strong influence over him for example if you want to go to the movies and your more dominant partner wants to do something else start talking about all the good movies that are out right now as you Begin walking in the general direction of the theater your partner will relent simply because you are already heading in the direction of the movie theater he or she will think oh we're already heading there so it will be easier to just go to the movie hiding what you want in word order let's say you work with a stubborn
person who seems to have it out for you to get your way you want to make it seem like you don't want something when you really do Therefore you get this person to think that you don't want something and that he or she should choose it consider this example you are telling your difficult boss different options you have for what to serve at a catered lunch you love ravioli but you know he will be opposed to anything you suggest so really talk up the stake and then add that there is ravioli as a side option
make it seem you don't want the ravioli by listing at last you will take this hint and ask for The ravioli subliminal hints subliminal hints work by injecting an idea into someone's subconscious mind if you have read my other books you already know a bit about it subliminal psychology works because a person can't filter it out it just works its way into their subconscious and changes their thinking the best way to run subliminal psychology on someone is to present them with an image or sound at a fast speed this image or sound will still make
an Impression which will influence their thoughts creating associations is another way that subliminal psychology works you make someone associate an action with a subsequent reward or punishment soon they will avoid an action that brings a negative consequence or perform one that brings a positive consequence more often you can use their favorite song as a subtle way to train them in this way I go into more indepth detail on the subject of Sublimal psychology in my book entitled subliminal psychology 111 how to stealthily penetrate influence and subdue anyone's mind without them suspecting a thing chapter five

in a submissive role you must take charge and establish dominance right off the bat For first though you must understand how this power struggle plays out it typically all starts with the first impression from the first glance you judge a person based on his for stature posture dress and eye contact whether or not the person speaks first also impresses you so when you first meet someone the first glance tells you whether you are dominant or submissive to this person the other person is also determining the same exact information Then your mind determines if you want
to accept this role or not thus it is essential to make a first impression that you are the dominant one you must dress to impress you must carry yourself tall with your spine straight and your head held high shoes that add height to your stature can Aid you in appearing taller and thus more dominant this is why professional women typically wear high heels the more pressed neat and stylish your clothes are the more Presentable you are you tell the world that you care about yourself and you have high self-esteem which immediately impresses others you don't
need to Dawn super expensive business clothes to make this great dominant first impression we what fits your style but wear it with pride and choose quality over quantity when shopping for clothes always ensure that you have a dominant posture as you meet someone look this person right in the eye and preferably stand taller than Them offer your hand first for a very firm Shake while maintaining solid unwavering eye contact the first person to look down is always the submissive person so don't look down or break eye contact no matter how nervous or uncomfortable you feel
let the other person Look Away first also maintain a sharp and Tall stature and don't slouch or cringe away or Cross Your Arms act like you are proud of who you are and you have nothing to hide or to be Ashamed of this gains you immense power over the other person and makes a really strong first impression that automatically Awards you dominance from then on maintain dominance by speaking first don't allow the other person to interrupt you and say don't interrupt me please should he or she try to nerve-wracking right but you will get used
to it as you practice it more and more the key here is to establish dominance so you must not falter or give This person control in any way make all of the decisions right from the get-go if you're taking someone on a date then decide where to go and tell him or her where you're going as if it is a done deal if you're meeting someone to hang out or talk business also tell them exactly where to go and when to meet you when you do meet someone always be the first to sit down and
the first to open the conversation people will try to challenge you they will suggest other Places to eat or try to speak first don't let them win the relationship can not be built on compromise at least not early on or you will never gain the dominant position you must be the power talker and the decision maker from the start it must remain this way until you two are comfortable with each other and have accepted your roles in your relationship establishing dominance over children as a parent or caregiver or even a babysitter you cannot have Children
who disobey you a disobedient child is not only a pain but also he or she could place himself in terrible danger say you tell your child not to cross a busy parking lot without your guidance a disobedient child will cross any way and possibly get hit by a car hence it is essential to have dominance over children so that they listen to you they require your guidance through life because they do not yet understand how to guide themselves even if they think They do on top of that having dominance over children allows you to prevent
them from acting out inappropriately and being Bratz in public it enables you to instill the morals and ethics you desire them to grow up to have ignore the ridiculous advice of many modern parenting books and groups children should not have free reign they should not be allowed to make their own choices all of the time they are simply too young to be given that freedom as a Child's primary caregiver you must teach him or her how to act by making decisions for him or her the child can start making his or her own decisions once
he or she reaches adulthood and has acquired a sense of responsibility the only way to be able to teach and guide children is to have a degree of dominance over them you must be the authority figure that they listen to and respect if you don't establish dominance then you will have little Helens who put Themselves in danger and make you look bad establishing dominance over children is not a very difficult task after all children are uncertain about things and really do desire a figure to look up to as a role model the very fact that
you are an adult and you are bigger than children gives you an automatic dominant Edge over them they will naturally look up to you but you will foul it up if you don't continue to demand respect kids will learn rather quickly that they can Walk all over you so you must make your voice heard and you must offer consequences to children when they don't listen to you you also need to reward desirable Behavior consistency the first key is consistency your children will not learn to respect you if you let them get away with something one
day and then punish them for it the next punish each and everything you do not want swiftly then reward Behavior you do want as well you cannot confuse your children by Promising them something and then not deliver it don't promise your child an ice cream for good grades or a spanking for acting out at the grocery store and never fail to follow through when you say you will do something do it make children learn to rely on you and take you seriously if you are not consistent then kids will not take you seriously and they
will test you on the off chance that you let it slide another thing you need to be consistent about is the fact That you are the adult do not make the mistake of treating your children like best friends do not tell them your problems and expect them to comfort you do not let them make decisions ever as the adult you make the decisions you handle your problems and you are the authority figure when you establish this status they will respect you more keep the roles within your family clear and consistent if your kid starts to
speak to you like another kid or challenges Your Authority prove that you are the adult with a swift reprimand don't allow disrespectful language or talking to you like you are an equal we cover this a bit more in a few sections finally be consistent about what you want make it clear what behaviors are bad and what behaviors are good also make it clear what chores you expect to have done around the house offer the same rewards and punishments for good and bad behaviors respectively the end result is That children have a very concise and clear
idea about what to do they are not confused and misguided pretty quickly an autopilot effect will take place where they avoid bad behavior and engage in good behavior because they know what is expected and what will come if they behave well or poorly you will have less parenting and discipline to do as a result of your Clarity and consistency even if you have not been consistent in the past now is Your chance to implement consistency set up a routine and a Rewards or discipline system set up chore list that you post somewhere like the refrigerator
for everyone to see start to listen to yourself talk and avoid cont contradicting yourself if you need to write things down to help you remember how to be consistent then do so it is never too late to turn your caregiving practices around don't be afraid to give orders earlier I mentioned Being the Adult you must consistently make it clear that you are the adult and your kids are not the rulers of the household you are the one in charge you make the decisions you provide the discipline and you take care of the kids fully setting
the example that you are the adult from the getg go is so important one way to establish your Alpha status is to give orders without being afraid there is no need to bribe threaten cajo or plead with your kids to do things when you Tell them to do something they need to snap to it without argument punish arguments swiftly don't say things like please do this or I would love it if you did this for me just give orders offer consequences for when your orders are not obeyed and another way is to tell your kids
that they do not get to tell you what to do when your kid tries to tell you to do something say I'm the adult and I do not take orders from you shut down arguing quickly by sending the Kid to his her room or taking away a toy ensure that your kid refers to you respectfully Mom Dad sir and ma'am are acceptable forms of address your kid cannot get too comfortable with you by calling you by your first name or otherwise treating you like an equal you are not buddy or sweetie or anything like that
there's a lot of power in words so how your kid gets used to addressing you dictates how your kid thinks of you there is no need to Apologize to your child for making him do something or for disciplining him he better behave and he better do as you ask you are the dominant figure and the boss you don't owe a kid any sort of apology for making him do what he is supposed to do when you apologize guys you lose some of your dominance and make him feel like he is in charge and you owe
him something open communication ultimately what you communicate with your kids is up to you some families Like to be open and share everything together other families believe that their personal affairs are not the concern of their kids you have every right to choose what you are willing to divulge to your kids and what they should stay out of however the more open you are with your children the more you facilitate an environment of sharing if you are the stoic tight lipped disciplinarian at all times your kids are less likely to come to you when they
Are in trouble or need advice so it is a great idea to establish some type of openness it is possible to do this without sacrificing even a tiny bit of your dominance start by showing your kids that you are the adult using the tips above that way they feel that you have more wisdom and knowledge than they do show them that you are capable of solving problems through example so that they learn to rely on your judgment this makes you seem like a good authority That they can turn to in times of need from an
early age ask your kid questions to engage him or her instead of just asking how was your day ask more involved questions like what did you learn at school and did you make any new friends your kid will learn to talk to you more this creates that trusting and sharing Bond you want also tell your kid things like if you ever need to talk to me about something you can I am here for you I can't promise that I won't get mad But I will be there to help you once I process my anger and
get over it I would prefer that you come to me with your problems and get real help then turn to friends or strangers who don't know how to help you make it clear that your kid can talk to you if need be encourage your teens to call you if they need a ride after drinking or if they need birth control and stress that you want them to stay safe as as opposed to getting into trouble because they are Scared of you doubt if you do these things you maintain your position as an authority figure while
still making your kids feel that they can turn to you you don't need to sacrifice your Authority and be friends with your kids you just need to let them know that you can take care of them and you are more than willing to help them when they need it these tips are ideal for raising your own kids or establishing dominance over step kids it can be useful when you are Babysitting or caring for kids that are not your own own as well however always get clear guidelines from the parents before you start to discipline or
punish kids who are not your own establish dominance over in-laws your in-laws will most likely be the biggest source of power struggle that you encounter in life they feel that they are somehow in control just because they are older and the parents of your significant other they must meddle in your parenting and Your marriage attempting to get involved because they do not trust you to do things correctly these power struggles and meddling can turn ugly fast you may but head so much that family reunions and holidays become unbearable and you feel incapable of leading your
own life shut these power struggles down by asserting your own dominance over in-laws it will not be easy or fun but the key to establishing dominance over your in-laws is standing up for your Boundaries feelings might get hurt your spouse may even get mad at you for standing up to his or her family but you have every right to defend your own boundaries and end conflicts be the boss and stop worrying about others feelings put your own feelings first do what is best for you and live your life the way you want to you do
not need over involved and meddlesome in-laws telling you what to do or making your life miserable the first thing to do is to Stop following their advice you're in laws will have tons of advice following it shows them that they have power and that you obey them following their advice also allows them to manipulate your life as they see fit and they may give you the wrong advice just to destroy your marriage or create the drama that they thrive on the second thing to do is to tell them that you have things under control say
with a smile on your face this will enrage them Sure but you don't need them meddling right showing them that their advice and meddling is not appreciated or needed will help drive them away the third is to tell them no as firmly as you need to be adamant about your boundaries they simply cannot just come by your house whenever they want for instance tell them no and set up schedules so that they can see their grandkids all of this is under your control don't be merciful or apologize for taking control and Setting boundaries they just
have to accept that this is your life and work around your schedule in-laws love to get a bit too involved at major events they will try to ruin your wedding honeymoon family vacations and holidays you can handle this in two ways the first is to give your in-laws a few holidays that they can control for example choose to let them host Thanksgiving every year or every other year that takes stress off of you and gives them the sense that They are in control of something the second is to tell them that you are host hosting
something or planning your wedding and you want no help because you have a specific Vision then don't discuss your wedding planning or other event planning with them and don't invite them to contribute anything if you do want their help delegate specific tasks to them and don't let them take over other tasks it is also possible to stop inviting them over for the holidays Or on vacations this may seem horrible but if your in-laws are horrible why tolerate their Antics when you're supposed to be en enying yourself tell your spouse that they are no longer welcome

had a second Army creeping through the passage of chin song this second Army took sang L's Fortress by surprise and ushered in the Han Dynasty watch the fire burn burn across the river sometimes it is best to be the last one at the scene when engaging in Warfare you may not be the only fighter sit back and let everyone else duke it out then you can swoop in when everyone else is exhausted and damaged from a fighting you can pick up all of the pieces there are two benefits To waiting the first is that you
can appear like a friend your victim may just think that you are an ally since you are not participating in the war he will let you into his inner counsil and will trust you the second benefit is that everyone will be weakened by the time you make your attack you will have almost no opposition when you move in some of the work will even be done for you this is particularly useful in occasions where an entire Community Engages in Warfare on one person it is also useful in situations where someone has elicited the hatred of
several people let others ravage the victim's mind then come in with a coup to Grace hide a knife behind to smile this is one of the oldest tricks in the book Smile and hide your metaphorical knife behind your back ingratiate yourself with your enemy by being sweet and seeming like an ally make your enemy trust you you will learn a lot about your enemy if you Pretend to be his friend you can use this information later to blackmail him you can also find out what is dear to him so that you can Target it later
when he confides in you what he really wants in life you will understand understand what to offer him to gain his full trust so that you can truly destroy him but more than anything being sweet lets you get into your enemy's most vulnerable presence from there you could do the most damage the most easily betrayal Deeply hurts if you make your enemy view you as a friend then you can hurt him even more than normal by betraying him loved ones and friends can inflict the deepest wounds sacrifice The Plum Tree to to preserve the peach
tree sometimes it is best to abandon any of your short-term goals to make way for a long-term goal some things are not as important as the ultimate end goal so they can be forgotten and let go for instance if you were striving to destroy Someone's reputation but you are losing credibility with your outrageous claims abandon this sabotage to preserve your image that way you are more believable and you can actually continue to convince people people of things about your victim later there is a rather brutal historic story behind this strategy Chow Chow's Army began to
run out of food during the Three Kingdoms period he ordered the Army Captain to make the food stretch by diluting the Rice with water when the troops began to notice and complain chowchow had the Army Captain killed and lied to everyone that the captain had been selling their R to the enemy the troops were fueled by fresh Rage Against the enemy and began to fight harder even though their nutrition was suffering take the opportunity to peill for the goat take advantage of any little possibility or opportunity no opportunity is too small to offer you benefit
if your enemy Demonstrates a weakness take advantage of it promptly keep your plan flexible so that you can take advantage of opportunities startle the snake by hitting the grass around it you do not ever want to reveal your intentions or your strategy if you do so you give your enemy the chance to prepare to fight you also avoid telling other people what your intentions are you never know who is really your friend and who is out to sabotage you by being close to you keep Your plans to yourself this way you have the advantage of
surprise you can startle your enemy with an unannounced attack or betrayal borrow another's corpse to resurrect the soul just like a corpse some old technology Customs or terms are now dead you can borrow them to create a new form of attack that your enemy is not prepared for letters are largely obsolete you can use letter writing to harass your enemy or send him visual propaganda what he thinks is a Nice letter or postcard from a friend is really just a form of propaganda you can use friendly means to spread ideas and false news that will
inspire Terror in people or else lead them to certain actions entice the tiger to leave its mountain lair many people are protected by their positions a good example is how a person is confident and protected from attack because of his ring of friends or his position of authority to attack him you must lure him away from his safety Zone then he is vulnerable this method is the common tactic of murderers and child molesters these people understand that taking someone aside is the best way to disable their defenses you can use it to your advant Vantage
by taking someone away from his friends to weaken him mentally he will be less likely to fight you off and he will be more vulnerable to your insinuations for instance if you tell someone that he is ugly around his Friends his friends will defend him and make him think that he is in fact handsome but if you tell him this when you are alone and no one can stick up for him he is more likely to believe you the power of suggestion works better when you have someone alone in order to capture one must let
loose when you make someone feel trapped in a sticky deal or other form of imprisonment then he is desperate to escape he will put all of his energy into getting out of the deal And fleeing far far away he will not fight you as he attempts to escape you can take the fight out of someone by offering the glimmer of hope that escape is possible when the glimmer of hope turns out to be fake your enemy will usually give up and despair you have him totally trapped use the false promise of Escape as a way
to break down morale and hope tossing out the brick to get the Jade offer your enemy the promise of money Fame sex or Power these are huge temptations that almost everyone will fall for by offering this promise to your enemy you are giving him bait if he takes it he is falling into your trap you now have control and your enemy owes you something exchange for the bait you gave him use the promise of something great to get your enemy to do something for you for instance if you want a bouncer to let you into
a club you can offer a monetary bribe bouncers are often Underpaid and will accept some extra cash you can manipulate people and gain power over them by promising them what they really want this proverb comes from a funny story there was a poet named Chong Jin who wanted to learn from a greater poet xiaoyu he heard that xiaoi would be at a local temple so he went to the temple and wrote two lines of a four-line poem on the walls when the master poet visited the unfinished poem irked him and he completed the missing Lines
from this Chong Jen was able to learn more about poetry from a master he tricked the master into teaching him by offering him the temptation of completing a poem and showing off talent to the masses defeat the enemy by capturing the chief people always need a leader a leader offers Direction morale and support when the leader is gone the group will fall into chaos they will no longer be able to fight and they will probably surrender you can take Advantage of the subsequent chaos for victory you can capture the leader in real life by sabotaging
his reputation or making him resign from a leadership position by disabling the chief his followers will be become powerless most likely his group will dissolve remove the firewood under the cooking pot by removing someone's source of strength you can disable him just like if you remove the wood from a fire he will have nothing to fuel his strength disable Your enemy carefully by removing all of his support remove the people who love him remove his pride and his self-esteem remove his sense of reality using various manipulation strategies which are covered later you can totally disable
him isolation and smear campaigns can help remove his social support while gaslighting and torture can remove his mental faculties and self-certainty catch a fish while the water is Disturbed using confusion to Weaken your enemy is an effective technique for disabling his defenses you can use the most unexpected and inexplicable actions to disrupt your enemy's thinking and make him vulnerable use deli confusion to make people lose their faculties and their ability to defend themselves Slough off the cicada shell there will be times when you find yourself on the verge of defeat when this happens create the
illusion that you are surrendering and giving up Meanwhile plan a secret attack your enemy will let his guard down believing that he won and that is when you can make your move it is always a great idea to let your enemy get full of himself let him think that he won it may hurt your pride but it enables him to lower his guard then you're sure to win shut the door to catch the thief it is a great strategy to just completely destroy your enemy if you can if you have information or something that will
Totally disable your enemy use it in the war once and for all do not ever hold back or let sympathy get the best of you it is not a bad idea to drop all pretense of kindness or friendship if you know for sure that you have the power to win the war however you only want to do this when you are confident that your plan of attack is sure to succeed do not hesitate and give your enemy time to collect his faculties Just Launch your attack immediately and be as Brutal as you can befriend the
distant State while attacking the neighbor the people who work closely with you are more likely to be the people that you experience the greatest conflict with those who are further away from you often make better allies watch the people you are close to and never trust them meanwhile Find Out Who Your allies really are they are probably people who are not as close to you use them to your advantage against your enemies collect a Large Gathering of allies that you can call on when you need them trust in the people who are satellites to you
rather than those that you really rely on this is especially helpful when you are using psychological warfare at work the people you work closely with are the ones you rely on the most therefore they can easily Hurt You by letting you down never trust them and make sure that you have the support of other co-workers should those you work closely with turn Against you obtain safe passage to conquer the state of Gua borrow information or resources from an ally to attack your enemy then use those same resources to attack the Ally that you got them
from this keeps you ahead of everyone else you will be the ultimate Victor of everyone if you do not give anyone a break this refers to Chinese history when a military leader used the state of gu's offer of safe passage in order to Turn against Gua and Conquer it this strategy is the epitome of betrayal and it is not very nice but then psychological warfare is not supposed to be nice replace the beams with rotten Timbers this is self-explanatory replace the beams or the main supports of your enemy disrupt their way of doing things so
completely that they fall apart you can do this by disrupting someone's schedule or by taking away the things that they rely on For support such as a job you can replace someone's Timbers with rotten would by getting them fired or otherwise disabling all of their supports in life never underestimate the way that people rely on routine and habit as a form of support by taking away what gives their life meaning and structure they become helpless and weak you can then easily destroy them point at the mulberry tree while cursing the locust tree never clearly give
names or obvious Suggestions when you talk to other people particularly your enemies hold even your closest allies at an arms length use subterfuge when you impart information this clears you from future blame and it helps you to be able to manipul at the truth in any way possible it is best to always keep everyone on a need to know basis you do not need to share everything with everyone by keeping things to yourself you can easily gain control of a situation other People will be acting on false premises that they have gathered from the partial
details you share you can easily manipulate situations by providing limited details meanwhile you can reserve control over others because you you know something that they do not play dumb playing dumb is an age-old strategy by making people think that you are dumb you can make them underestimate you they will set themselves up for attack and make themselves vulnerable because they Trust that you are too stupid to make a move they will not be prepared for when you suddenly emerge from the Shadows with a brilliant attack your Genius is really another need to know detail that
you should keep to yourself let everyone think that you are dumb that way you can rise up at unexpected moments and decimate your enemies when you need to this can hurt your pride and this can be hard to fake dumbness but it is very useful in the end remove the Ladder when the enemy has ascended the roof you can lure someone into a situation where he has no friends or support then remove his way back home to Safety in this way you leave him weak and in a vulnerable place in essence you are cornering someone
in a place where he has no defense you could do this physically or metaphorically physically you can lure someone to a place where he has no allies then slash the tires on his car and leave him stranded he will Be defenseless and you will have the ultimate control over him he may have to beg you for Mercy to get home safely you can use his vulnerability as a chance to force him to do something that you want in exchange for your help metaphorically you can make someone very uncomfortable by taking away all of his friends
make life seem impossible for him soon you will be begging for mercy and you can use the situation to your advantage deck the tree with false blossoms just as Fake blossoms can make a dying tree look healthy you can make anything look the way you want it to using deceit and falseness you can make your enemy feel threatened by something harmless or believe that something useless is a valuable tool you can shape someone's reality with falsehoods part of psychological warfare calls for creating false realities for your enemies you do this through propaganda fake news and
other means convincing your enemy that Something benign is to be feared can inject him full of fear over nothing for instance if your enemy is a coworker and your company gets a new boss you can convince your cooworker that the new boss will be firing people and that his job is at special risk he will become terrified of the new boss and the threat of losing his job for no reason at all he may even quit you can also make someone humiliate himself convinced that a pretty girl is head over heels in love With him
point out how she glances at him or how she postures herself this will convince him to go after her he will be shot down and his ego will be hurt make the host and guest exchange roles pretend to be someone's very best friend this way the person lets you in you can use this opening in his heart to infiltrate him and defeat him playing nice and pretending to surrender is a classic way to stab someone in the back later you can use someone's friendship To glean information about someone friends talk he will let his guard
down and let you know very valuable details about himself such as what he cares about and what he fears the most you can then use this information to hurt him later in addition he will bring you around his loved ones you can learn how to get to his loved ones in order to hurt him you can get him to trust you with work projects and then fail him and blame the failure on him so that he gets Into trouble at work adjust your use of friendship to the situation and you will enjoy great success the
Honey Trap use sexual seduction to get someone to make a mistake or to create Discord within someone's life you can try to seduce someone or you can send a beautiful person to do the work for you either way you can use sexual closeness to cause your enemy to make many blunders most people are weak to sexuality particularly when that sexuality boosts Their ego therefore the Honey Trap is sure to work you can get your enemy to fall into many transgressions for sex you can totally weaken him with the promise of sex with an attractive person
the empty Forge strategy if you think that your chances of defeat are low then pretend that you are not interested in battle at all act nonchalant and innocent your enemy will lower his guard and think that you mean no harm you will no longer be a perceived threat then Launch an attack on his mind when he is not prepared for it the element of surprise can greatly increase your chances of Victory let the enemy's own spy s Discord in the enemy camp through rumors and framing you can make someone appear badly to their family friends
lovers and other loved ones this will create Discord between your enemy and his loved ones it will disable his support network and make his life messy make sure to use very believable Evidence when sabotaging someone's appearance to their loved ones injure oneself to gain the enemy's trust pretend to hurt yourself people will thus think you are harmless and that you can be trusted they will feel sorry for you and will let their guards down as they attempt to help you this is when you can spring like a cobra you can also pretend like your injury
was caused by an enemy that both you and your enemy share then the two of you can appear to Be in collusion your enemy will think that you are an ally just to get back at the mutual enemy in reality you are not allies with anyone combine tactics never be afraid to combined tactics the more tactics you use the more likely your success will be combined tactics is a great way to confuse and batter someone mentally apply all of these tactics simultaneously to batter someone down or one after another to weaken his defenses never be
afraid to barrage several Attacks this can increase your chances of winning if all else fails Retreat you have to know when to surrender before you are destroyed some people are too formidable to break if psychological warfare ends up causing you more harm than good then consider retreating it hurts to give up but it can save your neck in the end once you give up that does not mean that the battle is forever finished you can always launch a new attack later when your enemy least Expects it chapter 7 embracing self Love Without Shame what's the
connection between selflove and dominance quite a bit actually self-love plays an essential role in embodying an alpha mindset to be dominant you need to cultivate a strong ego and a healthy sense of entitlement that pushes you to pursue what you want you must believe you are worthy and capable of attaining your desires freeing you from the fear of going after them furthermore having a Positive view of yourself is crucial it fortifies your dominant presence and helps Shield you from others who might attempt to undermine your confidence through insults or self-doubt it's time to shed the
belief that you don't deserve what you wish for you owe nothing to anyone but yourself you have every right to pursue your desires without yielding to the wants of others at your own expense you also do not have to accept disrespect or a Flatout no From anyone your boundaries are yours to Define and you owe no one an explanation for prioritizing your well-being insist on having your needs respected and refuse to let anyone diminish your selfworth remember that those who try to do so are merely attempting to manipulate you embracing a dominant role means loving
yourself and refusing to let others complicate your life influential leaders don't let themselves be disregarded or subjugated neither Should you claim what you desire unapologetically pursue your goals with determination and remember you don't need anyone's permission to prioritize your happiness when you assert what you want people are more likely to respond positively Authority comes from being bold and genuinely invested in your aspirations that self-love also liberates you from feeling inferior and Unworthy of being an alpha confidence is vital for this role which can be Difficult if you struggle with insecurity or self-acceptance ultimately self-love requires
you to trust trust in yourself wholeheartedly have faith in your choices and instincts believe in your potential for success and recognize your inherent value when you cultivate self-belief you eliminate self-imposed limitations and attract trust from others this confidence ignites the willingness in others to follow your lead and heed your guidance Without this certainty inspiring others becomes a daunting challenge the secret to self-love make yourself a priority the first and foremost secret to your newfound approach to life involving self-love is to realize that your relationship with yourself is the single most important relationship you will ever
have you are your own best friend in many ways you are your only friend you are the only one who will be there until the day you die therefore you need To make your relationship with yourself a priority you need to consider yourself your own best friend and the best person you know on top of that you need to realize that you owe it to yourself to treat yourself well you need to make yourself a priority start to make it a part of your schedule to love yourself and do things that you enjoy spoil yourself
now and then do things that you love as a part of your weekly routine or even daily take some time for self-care And self-indulgence start to tell other people no so that you can free be up some time for your own health and well-being build yourself up it is time to shed the idea that you need to be your own worst critic in order to excel at life being your own harsh critic really does not encourage you to do great things it only makes you cringe at the possibility of failure you essentially yourself and your
thirst for adventure as you fear failure You also think that you are incapable of greatness if you continually tell yourself bad things about yourself so to be truly great you need to encourage yourself and develop yourself with kindness rewards and loving selft talk you need to boost yourself up and push yourself forward and you need to make yourself feel wonderful about your chances of success you have to start talking to yourself like a best friend make that a huge priority the way you Talk to yourself is the second huge secret to self-love the monologue running
in your head has tremendous power over how you feel about yourself and how you approach life therefore you need to have a positive monologue going on in order to approach life with healthy zest and vigor tell yourself stuff like I can do this then congratulate yourself when you do succeed stop tearing yourself down by speaking harshly to yourself criticizing Your efforts or your personality or body and thinking of past failures or shames instead build yourself up talk to yourself as you would your best friend or your significant other use kind words and positive terms of
encouragement set boundaries a huge part of how you feel about yourself centers around other people when other people violate your boundaries or expect too much of you or take advantage of you you feel pretty crappy right limiting how much others Can hurt you can really help you free yourself from the burden of self-loathing and shame it can also make your life easier as you free up time to take care of yourself and do things you love you do not need to devote every moment to other people start to figure out what bothers you when people
ask you to do too much or when people try to hurt you or when people talk poorly to you are all classic examples of things that probably bother you then start to Tell people no and set limits on what they can expect of you or what they can do and say to you start to tell people how you feel and how you want to be treated people will start to wake up and respect you chances are they have no idea what your boundaries are when you set boundaries they will be surprised even if people know
that they are being wrong in how they treat you they will continue to do it if you allow it but when you say no people will start to Realize that they cannot hurt you anymore so they will wake up and back off some people will refuse to respect your boundaries in that case you want to walk walk away you do not need people who have so little respect for you in your life Alpha people do not tolerate such treatment so demand and expect the best and when you do not get it walk away you will
feel so much better and you will enjoy your strength you will feel proud of yourself for getting rid Of toxic people and improving your own life set reasonable expectations of yourself the core of self-loathing is always the sense that you are not good enough you do not think you are good enough because you failed to live up to your expectations this means that your expectations are probably unreasonable and way too high you have probably had a boss before who expected way too much of you he demanded the best and you felt Horrible when you could
not deliver you most likely hated that boss well do you realize that you are the boss of yourself and that you are being a bad boss a slave driver who is digging in into your self-esteem and interfering with your ability to love yourself it is time to become a better boss of yourself and lower those expectations to a reasonable limit to figure out what you should expect of yourself think of what you would expect of others you would Expect them to do their best right you would expect them to do their job right but you
would also expect the occasional mistake or miss deadline you would expect them to lag and to deliver a product that is not completely perfect you want we're done well but you do not expect Frills and you do not expect people to go above and beyond every single time they do something for you now turn these expectations around and put them on yourself also realize that You are not perfect and never will be it is okay to do the bare minimum sometimes it is okay to fail or screw up just pat yourself on the back and
learn from your mistakes then move on and try better next next time never expect to actually be perfect or to do everything right promote self-care self-care is an essential step to loving yourself you cannot expect to love yourself if you do not take care of yourself taking care of your body and mind are all part of the New prioritized relationship you are forming with yourself start to treat yourself like you are a baby and pamper and nurture your body and mind mental well-being your mental well-being is so important to your overall well-being there is a
strong mindbody connection that indicates how much power your mind holds over your body if your mind is sick so is your body and your relationship with yourself will suffer tremendously it is easy to tend to your Mental well-being you simply need to remove as much stress as possible from your life and replace it with pleasure and enjoyment make some time to do what you love and make less time time for things you hate stop prioritizing people who make you feel drained or unhappy and cut toxic people out of your life quit your job and find
one you love if you hate your career pursue Your Dreams by making daily baby steps toward your goals that a lot of mental well-being Lies and physical well-being you know what to do eat well exercise sleep enough and tend to your body take care of health issues before they go unchecked for too long physical well-being your body is your vessel without it you would not be you in fact you would not be alive so caring for your body is essential it is easy to forget and neglect your health when you are busy with work family
and other Pursuits but all of these Pursuits will Not even matter if you are in the hospital sick or else dead so dedicate some time to your health also the more you take care of yourself the better you look the this makes others feel more respectful of you people will like you more if you appear healthy and hygienic doing some physical self-care can also feel good you will enjoy it and relieve some stress therefore you'll be better off you will find more enjoyment in life getting a pedicure is a classic example Of how wonderful your
physical self-care can feel exercise and eating well can feel like a horrendous chore at first but certainly engage in it to feel better eventually as healthy living becomes a habit it will start to feel amazing and you will become addicted to healthy habits instead of unhealthy habits mind hacking remember how I mentioned mind hacking before well it is possible to use this technique on yourself part of promoting self-care Involves ending the negative habits and activities that are so detrimental to your well-being whether you drink a little too much to deal with stress or you tear
yourself down with overly critical selft talk your bad habits are preventing you from being your best that can make you dislike yourself at least a little bit and it can hold you back from being happy with who you are therefore start to squash terrible Habits by hacking your own mind start by using Loops the idea behind Loops is that you reach into your thinking and adjust it instead of thinking oh I am a terrible person think I am a great person notice how this starts a loop of positive emotions that feed more positive thoughts when
you think that you are a great person you start to think of examples of why you are great which reinforce this thought's strength and power however when you think in negative Loops you find ways to reinforce Negative beliefs so feed positive thoughts when you start to reach for a bad habit such as a drink think a positive Loop about how you deserve better then Encourage Yourself to do something else that you will thank yourself for later for example instead of drinking to unwind after a stressful day of work do some yoga to relax you will
not hate yourself when you wake up well rested without a hangover find what you want to feel and then find healthy Ways to encourage that feeling without engaging in your bad habits chapter eight sustaining your dominance dominance isn't something you simply achieve and hold on to for life it requires constant effort to uphold others will compete for your position and if you aren't Vigilant you could easily lose your Edge it's crucial to actively Safeguard your dominance and prevent anyone from usurping it essentially you will be in a lifelong Struggle to maintain your standing believe me
others will attempt to diminish it the world can be harsh and few will be content allowing you to wield all the power throughout life you you'll encounter adversaries and make enemies however don't let this overwhelm you you'll be just fine here are some straightforward foolproof strategies to help you maintain your dominance always exude Alpha energy to remain dominant consistently project your Alpha Persona Wear that confident facade and assert your Authority in every scenario regardless of any intimidation you might feel never allow others to witness your moments of vulnerability ability doubt or defeat by upholding this
Alpha presence you'll deter challenges and instill confidence in those around you as a result you will earn respect and sustain your dominance in every aspect at all times with everyone two approaches to maintaining control there Are two primary approaches to maintaining control the first involves ensuring that your submissive never gains power over you and instilling fear of consequences if they Rebel the second focuses on persuading them that submitting to you is more beneficial than resisting the first method Echoes the tactics of dictators who rely on fear to force compliance while this can be effective in
the short term it often leads to resentment and eventual Rebellion as people grow tired of oppressive rule it's important to understand that threats lose their effectiveness over time and can backfire conversely if you inspire a sense of love and loyalty in your followers or demonstrate the advantages of aligning with you you cultivate more committed support gaining genuine affection and voluntary submission from others is ideal as it greatly reduces the likelihood of future opposition Ultimately the approach you choose will depend on your specific circumstances however a decision must be made for once you attain dominance you
must continuously fight to uphold it maintaining your control is a essential for ongoing success neglecting it poses the risk of losing everything you've worked hard to achieve regaining lost dominance is significantly more challenging as it reflects poorly on your abilities and can diminish respect Among your followers by consistently holding on to your position you'll find it easier to sustain over time allowing you to develop the habits of a truly dominant individual make someone be your friend being someone's friend is a great way to get their cooperation and submission you also make sure that the person
does not attempt to rebel against you or bring you down out of hatred you spend time building affection rather than anger and resentment making your Subject love you enough to actually enjoy submitting to you the power of influence also increases with friendship as per the liking principle where a person is more likely to do something for someone that he or she likes so if you want to become a leader you must also become someone's friend but hang on you want to differentiate between friendship where both friends are equal comrades and the type of friendship where
you have dominance you must Maintain your dominance with these friends otherwise they will feel too comfortable with you and will attempt to take advantage of you the best thing to do is to be the dominant bossy friend from the start or you can be ruthless and gain dominance using tips highlighted above and then later go about treating your sub subjects more like friends either way be sure to maintain some dominance in the Friendship sure you can smile chat and Laugh but you still get to say what is up and make the decisions you also get
to drop your happy face and take some disciplinary action as necessary to get your subjects to mind your orders when you notice that your subjects are starting to lose respect for your Authority or struggle with you for power you need to assert your dominance all over again be sure to do it sooner than later to prevent too much damage to your dominant reputation start to get Aggressive to show your friends what you are made of get sirly and angry and demand respect or act insulted and hurt that they are violating the terms of your friendship
by disrespecting your boundaries as a coworker or boss this tactic is especially useful because you have the excuse that you are doing your job to make people feel better about about it when you need to regain dominance being moody and switching from friend to boss is a great way to Maintain dominance without becoming a dictator this roller coaster keeps people from getting complacent it shows them that you're not just a buddy but rather the one in charge in addition people start to stay on their toes worrying about what you think and trying to keep you
in Friendly mode so start by being a very friendly relaxed and pleasant person to be around but then switch to a hard emotionless face when you give orders don't let your Friendliness interfere with your boss mode never feel like you cannot take charge over those who are under your dominant Wing as a leader be open to others hear their ideas and use their input as you make a decision the decision is still yours to make and you can decide whatever you want but lending your subjects an ear makes them feel validated positive reinforcement also works
wonders over being a dominant jerk instead of criticizing people tell them What they do well and reward or congratulate them on jobs well done show them lots of gratitude when they do what you want make them feel like you are all on a team by using we terms a lot and congratulating them on being excellent team members or helping you out however be sure to maintain your dominant status by giving everyone guidance telling people no sometimes and thanking them in a manner that makes it seem that they are not indispensable and are not Somehow above
you now or in your debt for example say things like thank for doing that so well instead of thanks for doing that for me I owe you one as a leader you can get involved in your subject's personal life asking personal questions and showing an interest may seem flattering to your subject but in reality it is giving you a ton of control and power the more involved you get the more power you get so try to get involved in and seem like a friend about It meanwhile offer advice and start to become more and more
controlling the subject will not realize what you are doing since you appear to be coming from a place of friendliness and helpfulness and you get control over that person's personal life this is especially easy and simple when you're already personally friends with someone at work you can be the friendly boss the important thing is to be less involved personally and emotionally hanging out After work is probably a bad idea for example getting too personal can corrode the boundaries that need to exist for you to be a professional boss your friends can start to resent you
for asking them to do things and they may think that they can get special favors from you or exist above the rules at work offer smiles and laughter all that you want but definitely never drop the mask you where as a boss be sure to always give orders and be above everyone Make people like you so that they are more likely to do what you want and to minimize spite but don't let yourself like them back be the dictator if you choose to go the other route of using fear to get people to hold you
in high regard then you must be the type of person to strike fear in your subjects otherwise your plan will not work be prepared for people to talk crap about you and to resent you and resist you as much as possible being Ruthless and putting an immediate end to to any and all grumbling your subject is absolutely at your mercy this means that you must make your subject miserable show him or her what harm and pain you are capable of inflicting this way he will do what you want in order to avoid the harm and
pain you can wreak upon his life showing your subject your bad side now and then is a good way to remind him of your power so that he will remain submissive the best thing to do is to Have dirt on someone knowing something about him or her that will ruin him or her he or she will be submissive and will do what you want to avoid getting in trouble with you use anything you can as blackmail to hold over someone maybe you can threaten to fire someone if he keeps avoiding certain tasks or threaten to
expose something you know about him to his wife or you can use Simple emotional blackmail will you make someone feel awful about himself and so Guilty for being a horrible person that he will do anything to try to get you to see him in a more positive light now and then make an example out of someone to prove to your subjects what will happen if they go against your will get brutal and absolutely hurt someone to the core emotionally make sure someone loses something that he or she loves this shows how powerful and ruthless you
are micromanagement is also key have something to say about everything give Lots of orders and set lots of rules This Way You Are injecting your dominance into every situation your presence is always noticed and felt you never let your crown slip off your head because you are always dictating always the boss of every situation people have to ask for your permission and Independence is punished as well you don't want free thinkers or independent workers everyone must turn to you for permission to do anything the important Thing is to never be a good person be a
scary person never let your guard down or show your heart this makes someone fear you and hate you he will do anything to avoid your wrath combination a combination of the two tactics above is sometimes the most effective way of gaining dominance over someone it works sort of like a good cop/bad cop routine sometimes you are a friend and pleasant other times you are a dictator and slave driver your subject never knows which Side you will show or how you will react to the things he says and does this keeps him on his toes and
makes him try his best in hopes of getting your good side it also keeps him from getting complacent with you you will have dominance simply because your subject is confused by you and uncertain of how you will react to him use positive reinforcement to your advantage if you are mostly a nasty dictator your subject will be shocked when you offer a smile Or a nod of encouragement he will continue to strive for your affection and will do anything to please you throw him a bone now and then to get him to like you and to
want your affection show him that pleasing you means lots of rewards for him also sometimes use negative reinforcement hurt his feelings or criticize him the emotional roller coaster will keep him concerned about his ability to please you and will drive him to do his best he will also doubt Himself and suffer from low self-esteem which will make him feel especially attached to you have good days and bad days on your bad days you are a holy Terror on your good days you are an angel and a pleasure to be around let your subject influence your
good days and bad days you reward his good behavior with good days and his bad behavior or ins subordinance with a bad day being a bit bipolar makes people fear you and respect you because you are Unpredictable they walk on eggshells trying to avoid your dark side make sure no one gets the idea that they can ever have control over you for example you may not necessarily have a good day just because people did what you like sometimes you should be in a foul mood or a good mood for no apparent reason no one can
change or control how you act you are the one in total control especially of yourself people will realize that they have to do what you Want no matter what finally get involved in his personal life and get into his head you want to find out what he cares about and what he hates about himself that way you have ammunition you also have a way to bend him emotionally by talking about his personal life and his personal aspirations or insecurities you can use guilt to make him do things like saying your wife would appreciate this if
you did it you want to please her right especially since your marriage is A bit Rocky right now now you have the ultimate dominance is this type of situation win every fight to maintain dominance you must be sure to win every fight and power struggle the idea is that people will not fight with you after a while even when they disagree with you because they know there is no use they will lose every time think of your parent or your boss did you ever win no you have probably reached a point where you do not
even bother voicing Disagreement because you know that you will not win so you want to turn the tables and make people feel this way around you start by winning every fight at any costs you can fight dirty if you must you can pull emotional blackmail or use passive aggressive insults and smiles to win the fight in addition you must keep pushing your agenda and refusing to back down if you appear to lose just do what the subject disagrees with anyway to show that you cannot be Done dominated just make sure that you win also refuse
to change your mind as people voice descent do not give in just shrug and be like this is how it is love it or hate it it is what is happening people will hate this but they will learn that they cannot win with you you keep people under your thumb and you keep your dominance by never caving and never giving up on your ideals this is your world and your decisions are things you stick by only change your mind when You want to not when others ask you being stubborn is a great way to avoid

with less stress if they do not fight you prolong fights and make battles so stressful and miserable that the subject will hate them the subject will smile and give you your way every time just to avoid conflict he will be more willing to submit to you just because it is so Much easier show people it is better that you have power power having power is stressful and a little difficult so being in power is a responsibility that requires hard work rather than a privilege you understand that being dominant feels better and comes at a lower
