HOW TO MANIPULATE PEOPLE(Ethically) - How to Influence People by Robert Cialdini

In this video, I'll show you 8 tips which you can use to manipulate people in an ethical way. You can learn these techniques so that you can influence people in an effective way.

If you think you are in control of your decisions, then you are highly mistaken. We are all influenced by something. Our brains are just wired that way. It feels nice to think that most of us make our decisions after carefully evaluating all the options we have, but more often than not, we're just looking for shortcuts. Our subconscious minds are constantly on the lookout for certain cues or triggers, and that's what helps us make those decisions. Have you ever gone to the supermarket, and there was a salesman there, and you bought something from him, but after you you came you realized you didn't really need that thing. That's because you were influenced.

Now these cues and triggers are what corporations have been using for years to get you to buy their products. These are the same techniques that scam artists use to get you to give them your money. And these are the same techniques that you can use to manipulate the people around you.

I strongly believe that we "Human" must learn how to control ourselves before learning to control others. Controlling others when have poor self control will be immediately exposed, also only those who have no control on themselves seem to want to control others in order to get the results they want - when the fact that you can get what you exactly want by planning, investing in your personal development and controlling oneself. The World must follow this path instead of following the path of controlling others.

Consistency is probably the most powerful of these 7 tricks. The worst example that keeps recurring and I've seen it once (in a variation):
A gets into trouble and B comes along and consoles A and offers his help.
B promises to return the favor, if the chance ever arises.
B shortly afterwards comes along and asks exactly for that, however, his request is unethical.
A refuses, but B shows him how accepting his help was already unethical and that he can get into trouble for it, but obviously B would not tell anyone.
Begrudgingly A accepts and does the petty offense.
B comes back and asks again for a favor, but this time he'd pay for it.
A refuses but is reminded by B that he has done two immoral acts and is involved too deep to pull out anymore.
B keeps asking for more and more, slowly gnawing away from every moral value A ever had until A becomes a full fledged traitor.
Note: abusive relationships are typically similar!

This is more of a how to spot manipulation video more then it is a how to manipulate. If you want to really master manipulation look into studying a little psychiatry everything you need to know is in the basics but every individual is different and won't be as easily manipulated as others.

I learnt more about manipulating people from your explanation as to the ethics of manipulation than the rest of the video. Now that was some hardcore manipulation to get people to see something they used to see as morally unjust, and then temporarily change their stance

[chrispoe]

What a wonderful video to make, if only we had more of this in the world! Strong work

[babydoll]

[mukrizhsmukmuk]

For those who are scared of being manipulated, don't worry. Being manipulated isn't really a bad thing

[harjeetd]

This guy is incredible! Very well presented and I learned something...I didn't just watch it for entertainment. Excited for future videos.

[chyndonax]

Great video. Read the book from the title then practice and reread as needed. Literally the only book needed on social influence. Every other book takes from this one to some extent.

[brokenghoul]

I like how you are trying to manipulate me into thinking that learning this is good.

[Perqd]

Plot twist: The video is structured to manipulate you to continue watching the video till 1:56

[CReed-kfeo]

Good job. You manipulated me. I learn now. You asked me simple questions, have easy to understand examples, influenced me in a hypnotic sense

[anthonysandoval]

If you notice he tries to persuade you to keep watching the video
