So this is how social media starts
00:00:01
roping you in. This is how politics
00:00:04
starts roping you in. This is how cult
00:00:06
leaders will recruit you into a cult.
00:00:08
It's the number one way that we
00:00:09
influence another human being. Micro
00:00:12
compliance. And hypnosis is a great
00:00:14
example of this. Like I can have a
00:00:15
person laying on the floor unconscious
00:00:17
in maybe a minute and a half. And it's
00:00:19
very easy to do. Anybody can learn to do
00:00:21
it. But one of the things you'll see me
00:00:22
do at the beginning of that is like give
00:00:24
me your hand, put both hands out like
00:00:25
this, and then flip them over. You look
00:00:26
all the way up and look all the way
00:00:27
down. I make them do like 50 things.
00:00:30
None of the things that I just did with
00:00:31
them are meaningful. Everything was
00:00:34
micro compliance. And you don't realize
00:00:36
that you're going through massive amount
00:00:38
of compliance in order to get your
00:00:40
behavior to change or influence another
00:00:42
human being. Use what works for
00:00:44
brainwashing because our brains have not
00:00:46
developed one more wrinkle in the last
00:00:48
200,000 years. So a regular example of
00:00:50
this is novelty. Anything novel hijacks
00:00:54
our brain. So if you're trying to change
00:00:55
your beliefs or you want to lose this
00:00:57
weight, change something up in your
00:00:58
life. Change your wardrobe. Repaint the
00:01:00
walls in your office, you need to tell
00:01:02
the animal part of our brain here
00:01:04
because this has been proven on fMRI
00:01:06
studies that the decision shows up
00:01:07
before we're conscious of it. What about
00:01:09
humanto human skills? So people are
00:01:11
starving to have great conversations
00:01:13
that are very influential, which means
00:01:15
that if I'm an attorney, I can sway a
00:01:17
jury. If I'm a hostage negotiator, I
00:01:19
save people's lives. If I'm a parent, I
00:01:20
raise better kids because I can
00:01:22
communicate in a way that gets the
00:01:24
outcome that I'm looking for. And you
00:01:26
can do that with any of these techniques
00:01:27
like negative dissociation, the
00:01:29
childhood development triangle. There's
00:01:31
this thing called the PCP model. And
00:01:32
when it comes to influencing human
00:01:34
beings, that is the most important thing
00:01:36
that you could ever understand.
00:01:38
>> That might just be the most important
00:01:39
skill in the world. So, let's do some
00:01:40
role playing. All right.
