Introduction
Manipulation is everywhere, but it isnt something you are always able to see. For this reason, you might compare it to many different common behaviors that we arent always aware of. Manipulators act like spiders or vindictive insects, always lurking around, unknown to us. When they bite, you dont always feel it, but youll certainly notice the wound long after the initial attack.
In order to live happily in our world, we need to start to become more aware of manipulation. When you can recognize that someone is trying to control you, it will be much easier to stay out of their controlling grasp. This book will take you through the process of getting back to a place of independent individuality where you are able to consistently make your own decisions.
When you start to better identify manipulation, how it develops, and how it has affected your life, then it will only become easier to navigate without it. Interacting with others can include doing your best to avoid it healthily. However, stopping ourselves from being manipulated isnt the only important thing we will be discussing.
We will pay significant attention to how you can become a persuasive person yourself. Though you might have been hurt in the past by manipulation, or even damaged your mental health by being the manipulator yourself, there is hope, now that we can work towards a better future for ourselves. This is done by becoming an inspirational and potentially influential person.
Manipulation is dangerous, but when it is put in a more positive light, it can become healthy influence. If you are able to be a persuasive individual and not only get what you want, but fulfill the needs of others as well, then it will become easier for you to be able to get the things that you desire the most in life.
Rather than always doing things you dont enjoy, being the yes man, or letting people take advantage of your good nature, you can become just as influential as the people who have tried to control you previously.
You might even be at a point where you fear manipulation altogether. Why would you want to do something to others that has actually caused you grief in the past? This kind of thinking is because we have only been aware of the negative types of manipulation. In order to live a harmonious life, it is essential that we are becoming persuasive individuals who know what we want. Not only that, but it is important to ensure we have the tools to understand how to get these things.
The first important step in this process is to investigate the personality types of manipulators, as well as the people whom they commonly go after. You may have heard of the common personality type, Narcissist, a person who is only concerned with himself and getting the things he wants. Narcissists might take advantage of empaths, or highly sensitive people who are more concerned with the wellbeing of others.
After that, we will further explore positive manipulative personalities and the way that you can adopt some of these helpful practices in your own relationships. When you can do this, you will be able to better see the way that positive influence can change your life for the better.
Aside from that, we will also be discovering how our bodies communicate, the signals and responses that we give off, and what others might be taking away from our body language. The better you can understand influence through ways besides our verbal communication, the easier it will be to avoid becoming influenced yourself and to better persuade those around you.
After we understand what all of this means, it will be easier to learn and practice the rest of the influential tips that we will be sharing throughout the book. At the end of the day, remember that you should only be positively influencing others. Though it might seem easier to negatively manipulate those from whom you want something, the person whom you would be hurting most in this process is going to be yourself. Always look for ways of positive influence so that you can mutually benefit both parties.
Chapter 1: Investigating Personalities
When first understanding how we might be persuaded by others and how we might be able to influence ourselves, we have to figure out what makes up different personality types. There are the people who are manipulated, and the people who do the manipulating, or so it seems. In reality, a person can be both, and it is up to you to find a way to be aware of your behavior to make sure that you are in charge of your behaviors and emotions.
Some manipulators dont realize what they are doing, and others are skilled, living in a delusional world where everyone is like a string puppet and they are the master. If you want to make sure that you can become free of this kind of control, then it is important to really understand the personalities that are making up these kinds of interactions.
A lot of manipulative individuals have similar qualities, no matter how different they might look amongst each other. It is often hard to tell because their behavior is secretive. They know how to play things behind the scenes, to their advantage.
Many manipulative individuals simply love the fact that they can discuss your good and bad qualities with others behind your back. The defining characteristic of such manipulators is that they tend to put everything about you in a bad light when talking about you with others. If someone is often gossiping about others around you, then you can be assured that they are going to be gossiping about you just the same. In some instances, they might even be playing both sides, using both of you on either end of the gossip as a piece in their entertaining game. They will regularly discuss you with others, even if it seems as though the two of you have some special confidence when they converse with you about others.
Manipulative individuals dont understand the idea of limits. For them, there is no limit to what they are able to achieve. They will stop at nothing to get the things that they desire, no matter whom they might end up hurting along the way.
