using NLP to manipulate people
you want to know more about this stay tuned
Damon here with NLP Gym using NLP to manipulate people
I get this question a lot it comes up a lot because NLP has a bit of a
reputation for being manipulative
so what does manipulative really mean or what is manipulation manipulation can
mean to do harm to others but not necessarily it
there is a definition of the word where it doesn't necessarily mean to bring
harm to people it just means to manipulate a person or manipulate a
situation and that could be for good or for bad
so when you think about martial arts martial arts can be dangerous
you can teach it to people who will use it for Discipline use it to defend
themselves maybe even protect innocent people they can use it for their health
their own health or you could teach you to someone who might go and use it to
beat up innocent people
the evilness of it are the responsibility of it lies not in the
science are the art but in the person who practices it
so what kind of person are you
is what it really comes down to there's influence and persuasion
if your are good at that that is manipulation to a certain extent doesn't
mean that you use it for batted but it being persuasive and being influential
is a form of manipulation kids do this extremely well and without any shame
whatsoever so manipulation is bad then kids are evil and I happened to not
think that because i have two of my own
at times they do seem to be quite evil but at their heart they're not so some
people are just naturally good at this
is it wrong to learn how to be more persuasive
is it long as it is it wrong to learn how to be more charismatic and more of
influential
I don't think so at all some people are born to be very naturally healthy and
have really big muscles
naturally without anyone even working out that wasn't the case for me i was
born of average health and I learned how to eat right and exercise very well to
make myself healthier
I see nothing wrong with that just like I see nothing wrong with learning how to
become more persuasive and more influential especially with using an LP
doing something that I love to practice and that has worked wonders in my life
so getting to the question about is it ok to use and help you to manipulate
people
I say yes and here's why
the conscious and the unconscious has a way of working
that's very similar to karma that you might not believe in karma
you know the saying what goes around comes around there's a lot of truth to
that
and it has to do with the way your conscious and unconscious works
so your conscious mind is the part that says that's you and this is me
the conscious mind is a part of your mind that separates things that
categorizes things
the unconscious works differently though the unconscious doesn't make these
distinctions the unconscious sees everything as one
it sees nothing as separate so when you treat someone like shed
chances are you're going to treat yourself that way as well
and if you've gotten to know people like this if you dare to get to know people
through treat others like shed
I've got to know people like that the tendency is the in some area or some way
in their own life they treat themselves shed are used to be very critical of
other people and I used to get people telling me that a lot which is like
you're very critical and i worked on this
I used to help you to work on this one thing that I realized very quickly is
that I'm very critical of myself
so naturally very critical of other people and if I'm critical of other
people naturally i'm going to be very critical of myself
it's a cycle
sending goes for judging other people the same thing goes for how you treat
other people if you treat yourself kind
you're more likely to treat other people finally you treat other people kindly
you're more likely to treat yourself kindly
so if you're manipulating people and it's for your game and their loss
somewhere along the way your unconscious is going to see no difference between
the two and you will do the same to yourself you will treat yourself in
those ways i believe you can manipulate people for their gain and your game
it can be a win-win sometimes people won't understand this
so you use some manipulation are you something covert you use your
communication skills your persuasion skills your ability to influence
I see nothing wrong with this as long as its psychological meaning it's not going
to bring anything bad or there's no harm that's going to come to the person or to
yourself
so when you're leading someone manipulating someone persuading someone
influencing someone as long as you're doing it for the positive and you're
letting that person make their own decisions
whereas you're not forcing them and anyone in any sort of way I see nothing
wrong with this
