6 Simple psychology techniques will help you today:
Most underestimate the power of psychology.
It will help you in business, relationships, parenting, and more.
You can apply these simple techniques today 👇👇
1. Feeling watched
Do you ever feel like someone is watching you but can’t confirm it?
If you think someone is watching you, yawn.
Yawning is an innate behavior that we have little control over.
If they’re watching you, 9/10 they’ll yawn too. 😎
2. Tell me more
Most think asking open-ended questions is the best way to get people talking.
This is not wrong, but there is something more powerful. 👇
Saying nothing at all.
Works like a charm
Most hate being left in silence.
They can’t fight the urge to tell more than intended.
3. Memorable applicant
People get job interviews all the time.
Most get lost among the other applicants.
They sit through interview after interview taking notes, trying to remember each person.
Want to stand out? Apply the Serial Position Effect.
This happens when you insert their name and talk about yourself at the beginning and end of the interview.
This has a lasting effect on the interviewer, making it easier for them to remember you.
4. Stronger bonds
Stop trying to impress people with *things.*
Start finding an activity you both can do together.
You could buy your children more toys
Or
You could sit and play games together
The memory of playing games will last forever.
5. Make them feel important
People like to feel remembered and heard.
Remember their name and use it throughout the conversation.
I do this most when I meet someone new.
This keeps you engaged in the conversation, and they feel they have your complete attention.
BUT don’t say their name too much because that’s just weird.
Also…
During the conversation, use active listening techniques.
Ask questions
Nod your head
Make eye contact
Paraphrasing and summarizing
Simple.
6. Help others
People don't always have time to help you but if you want to increase your chances, start by helping them first.
They’ll feel the power of reciprocity.
BUT help them because you want to, not because they’ll help you in the future…because they might not.
