The Psychology of Persuasion 🧠

6-Principles to Influence and Control every encounter.

Take Back Your Control 👊🏽

-THREAD-

 1. Scarcity creates more demand

When an opportunity becomes less available to us, we desire it more.

A good example of this would be the brand “Supreme”

They’ve created the ultimate scarcity around their products which makes them sell out almost instantly.
2. Humans feel an obligation to return favours

A great example of this would be when someone buys you something expensive for your birthday...

You almost feel obligated to return the favour and buy them something equal in value for their birthday.

Let’s continue...
3. The harder we have to work for something, the more we value it

Nothing worth having ever comes easy.

The more time and effort we invest into something, the more meaning it has behind it.

Relationships, business, life...

This applies to all aspects.
4. We seek social proof when we are unsure

Humans by nature are social animals, so it only makes sense that we seek social proof as reassurance.

Use societies FOMO to your advantage by showing potential clients what they’re missing out on.

Next...👇🏽
5. When negotiating, start with an outrageous request and work backward

The goal is to start with an extremely large request, one you know will get shot down.

From here, it’s more likely for them to accept a second offer.

One that might’ve been declined if offered by itself.
6. Being indifferent of the outcome gives you leverage over the negotiation

Being able to walk away and mean it will always be the strongest negotiating position.

The person who is most desperate shows he has no options available.

Always act like you’re indifferent!
Thank you for reading and making it this far!

I hope you implement some of these strategies in some aspects of your life.

V-day 💝. As promised, here are some 🔥 notes about psychotherapist @EstherPerel. We'll focus on the podcasts for now because her books deserve their own threads.

1-sentence summary: Esther is a modern-day relationship & love wizard. How does she do


Let's start by posing a question I love, one I heard Esther ask a couple who desperately wanted their relationship to survive,

"Are you prepared to mount a little inner revolution?"

So twitterers, are you?

The thread will be broken down into 5 sections:

• Why the Esther 😍?
• How to criticize
• How to argue
• How to listen when the body speaks (aka nonverbal communication)
• Skillful therapy (observations & Esther's commonly asked questions)
• Uncategorised quotes I love

Before we jump in, a quote from @interintellect_'s Esther salon 🔥

"Love is a form of information sharing. You create a circuit of information between a partner & you, + you keep digging in deeper layers. There is an infinite amount of beauty to discover in another person" -Anna

~ What's Fascinating About Perel?

Mostly, I want to be her.

Couples come to her when they're stuck. She unfreezes them, moving them from stagnant to flowing.

Why is she so good at it? That's the question I'm trying to answer & the reason I can't stop analysing her sessions

The psychologist Daniel Kahneman won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 2002.

His book Thinking Fast & Slow distills his work on human decision making. In doing so, it highlights both the brilliance & limitations of the human mind.

Here’s a summary.

🧵 Thread 🧵


Kahneman begins by introducing the mind’s two modes of thought.

System 1 is automatic, fast, unconscious & effortless.

System 2 is deliberate, slow, conscious & effortfull.

The first accounts for around 95% of all our mental processing. The second, 5%.

To operate efficiently, System 1 uses shortcuts to produce “good enough” solutions whilst expending as little time & energy as possible.

This creates imperfections in human decision making that economists, and their rational-agent perspective, rarely account for.

Here’s 12:

01: Priming

System 1 is an associative machine. When presented with a word such as “lime”, it will easily generate others, such as “green” or “sour”.

This makes us susceptible to priming, in which a common association is invoked to move us in a given direction.

02: Cognitive Ease

System 1 welcomes information which is more easily processed.

Cognitive ease can arise from repetition and simplicity. Even falsehoods will be accepted if they are simple and familiar enough to be effortlessly processed.

SUBCONSCIOUS MIND

(THREAD)

The subconscious mind is the master of your reality. It is the man behind the curtain and the instinct in your blood.


It is more responsible for you, than your conscious mind. Humans are often a byproduct of their environment during infancy, this is when their subconscious mind is most malleable. This explains why John Locke's Blank Slate theory (Tabula rasa) is so widely accepted.


We are a “blank slate” at birth and people write the first initial lines for us, whether they realize it or not. I’ve always thought of the subconscious mind as your starting software. They are your thoughts that stem directly from God himself.


He’s implemented you with basic software, and that software adapts to its forever changing environment. Subconscious thoughts are different from the conscious because you can’t simply explain them away like you could a rational conscious thought.


Your environment won’t be the same forever, so your subconscious won't be the same either. In the beginning stages of life, it repeats what has been written on the “slate” since birth.

10 Lessons I Learned While Working With William O’Neil (Thread)

↓

1. The importance of trading psychology and emotional/physical well-being

Trading psychology and physical/emotional well-being is probably one of the least discussed, yet most important aspects of becoming a successful trader.

However, the large majority of traders spend little time if any focusing on this aspect of their trading and instead, dedicate their time to methodology, technique, and “special indicators.”

Start by taking good care of your physical and emotional health.

This means getting enough sleep, eating well, exercising, etc.

Next, pick up a couple of books and study trading psychology. Two excellent books on this subject are, “Trading in the Zone,” by Mark Douglas and “The Psychology of Trading,” by Brett Steenbarger

2. The importance of sound rules to avoid emotional decision making.

Having a sound set of rules that are proven to work is essential to success in the stock market. Why is this so important? Two words. Human nature.

MDZS is laden with buddhist references. As a South Asian person, and history buff, it is so interesting to see how Buddhism, which originated from India, migrated, flourished & changed in the context of China. Here's some research (🙏🏼 @starkjeon for CN insight + citations)

1. LWJ’s sword Bichen ‘is likely an abbreviation for the term 躲避红尘 (duǒ bì hóng chén), which can be translated as such: 躲避: shunning or hiding away from 红尘 (worldly affairs; which is a buddhist teaching.) (https://t.co/zF65W3roJe) (abbrev. TWX)

2. Sandu (三 毒), Jiang Cheng’s sword, refers to the three poisons (triviṣa) in Buddhism; desire (kāma-taṇhā), delusion (bhava-taṇhā) and hatred (vibhava-taṇhā).

These 3 poisons represent the roots of craving (tanha) and are the cause of Dukkha (suffering, pain) and thus result in rebirth.

Interesting that MXTX used this name for one of the characters who suffers, arguably, the worst of these three emotions.

3. The Qian kun purse “乾坤袋 (qián kūn dài) – can be called “Heaven and Earth” Pouch. In Buddhism, Maitreya (मैत्रेय) owns this to store items. It was believed that there was a mythical space inside the bag that could absorb the world.” (TWX)

A THREAD ON @SarangSood

Decoded his way of analysis/logics for everyone to easily understand.

Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen

1. Keeps following volatility super closely.

Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.

Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.


2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.


3. If you're an options seller then sell only when volatility is dropping, there is a high probability of you making the right trade and getting profit as a result

He believes in a market operator, if market mover sells volatility Sarang Sir joins him.


4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega

Sell when Vega is falling rather than for theta decay. You won't be trapped and higher probability of making profit.

Sri Gurubhyo Namah.
Some tweets on Adi Shankaracharya and in particular the Guru Parampara of @sringerimath. [I had done this series earlier 5 years ago on account of Shishya Sweekaram].


Adi Shankara established the Sringeri Peetham as the 1st of 4 amnaaya peetams.

The four being
1. Sarada Peetam at Sringeri.
2. Govardhana Peetam at Puri
3. Kalika at Dwaraka
4. Jyothir at Badarikashramam.

He installed his 4 most prominent shishyas as heads of the peetams.

Sureshwaracharya was assigned to Sringeri as its head.

Sringeri is a corruption of Rshyashrunga giri.

Rshyashrunga maharshi [and his father Sri Vibandhaka Maharshi] did their tapas at this place.

It is at Sringeri that Shankara spent 12 of His precious 32 years!!

That gives you and idea how much He loved this place.

Rshyashruga maharshi had a horn on his forehead, a result of being born to a deer. His mere presence was enough to shower rains!!

Rshyashrunga was one who led Putrakamesthi Yaagam of Dasaratha Maharaj and which resulted in Sri Rama's birth!!

Ok, I'll hop on this Elizabeth Warren/Native American testing bandwagon (gently and non-politically).

I've been a @23andMe customer for a while, and have followed their ancestry updates closely.

All is more or less as expected....except for this bit about Native American.


The family is almost completely composed of Spanish peasants (from various regions) who emigrated, along with a massive wave in the late 19th-cent./early 20th-cent., to Cuba back when it was a booming economy (richer than Spain's) and worth emigrating to (Communism killed that).

Also, the native population of Cuba was annihilated early on---was the first place the Spanish colonized after all. Having a native background in Cuba would be like having the same in, say, Massachusetts, particularly if you're (say) mostly Irish. Just really, really unlikely.

(Note: the North African/Arab background is less mysterious. The Iberian peninsula was part of the Muslim world for centuries. It would be odd *not* to have some Arab/Middle Eastern background coming from Spain. Given the family is mostly from Northern Spain, it's small though.)

I have a Spanish passport, have been back to the ancestral villages in Spain, seen the church where my grandmother was baptized, my grandfather told me stories about growing up as the child of Spanish colonists in rural Cuba. The native bit just clashes with all the family lore.
