https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Oct17Post.mp4 One of the coolest stories is way back when Galileo was sitting in church. Bored. And while he was bored, he looked up at all the chandeliers swinging. And he noticed that they had different periods. Some were swinging back and forth pretty quickly. Some were swinging back and forth pretty slowly. So Galileo, being the young scientist that he was, wanted data. Problem was this mind experiment was WAY before they invented clocks. The first clocks were based on pendulums. But that was only after Galileo had figured out how to measure the periods of pendulums upon which clocks were based. So, what did Galileo use to come up with a measuring system? His own heartbeat. Siting in church bored creates a pretty consistent heartbeat. Simple pendulums, once they figured out how they worked, can be used for a lot of things. Clocks, obviously. To see the rotation of the Earth. Even for wicked torture chambers, like in one of Edgar Allen Poe's stories. The Pit and the Pendulum. The slow, methodic, relentless swinging of the pendulum serves for a perfect metaphor in plenty of areas. A natural flow, back and forth. On a much deeper level, the mathematics (trigonometry) that describe the naturally swinging back and forth of the pendulum describe pretty much everything. The tides coming in an receding. Sunrise, sunset, our biological clocks. Stocks going up, and then down, and then up, and down. It's very easy to get caught up in this natural flow. To "go" with the flow. We are, after all, pack animals. Hierarchical pack animals. It's very, very difficult to think separately from the hive mind. To decide what you want, and to go after it, whether or not the hive mind approves of it. But if you want to get something different than what exists smack dab in the middle of the hive mind, you must. Empire builders, conquerors, inventors, writers and poets didn't copy and paste ideas like most of us. They thought outside the box. They lived outside the box. But if you can manage to do that, a funny thing happens. At first, it can be TERRIFYING to lose the safety of the back. To leave the safety of the flock where the rules are simple. And there's ZERO guarantees that if you DO leave the flock, or the herd, or the school, you'll be successful. But if you DO manage to think for yourself, and you DO manage to do so confidently and successfully, EVERYBODY will follow you. And being in FRONT of the pack has much, much greater rewards that being smack dab in the middle. Learn More: https://mindpersuasion.com/nice-guy-killer/

https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug21Post.mp4 A common "truism" in dating and seduction communities is to not listen to what "she" says, but to watch what "she" does. The idea is that women will say one thing, but do another. This is true, but it's true like confirmation bias is true. This type of behavior is very easy to see in others. Very hard to see in ourselves. So, what does the previous "truism" mean, particularly about human behavior? That what we say and what we do seem to always be different things? One way this comes out is in marketing studies. If you asks somebody if they like brand X, they'll usually tell you they do. But if you WATCH people, their behaviors will tell a different story. A much more accurate story. One long term study was done on weight loss. They first did a study on various diets, etc. But the results didn't make much sense. Until they realized they were making a cardinal marketing study error. The data that didn't make any sense was based on "self reported" data. So they decided to follow people around. And it turned out that most people reported eating less than they really ate. Nobody suspected these people were blatantly lying. But when humans say things, we tend to "alter" what we are talking about to make ourselves look better. This is why the truism if not listening to what "she" says, and instead watching what "she" does is good advice. But not just for women you are trying to date, but for EVERYBODY. If you've ever given job interviews to people, they will say ANYTHING to get the job. So if you ask questions and take their answers at face value, you might end up hiring somebody who has NO IDEA how to do what they say they can do. This is a part of human nature. This comes out in many, many ways. For example, most people will hold that money, or at least the love of money, is "evil." That rich people are only rich because they are "evil." Now, is this an absolute truth, or this a handy self deception so you don't feel so bad about not being rich? What would happen if you found a sack of money? A lot of money? Turn it into cops, since money is evil? Or keep it? These are tough questions. Another way to see the difference between what people say and what people do, is how they handle "leadership." The things people say what they want in a leader is much, much different than the people they'll actually follow. Just like the things people say they what they want in a partner is different from the people they actually chase. But when a REAL leader shows up, people WILL follow them. Even if they don't want to. How can you BE that leader that people will follow, even if they pretend they don't want to? Learn How: https://mindpersuasion.com/stage-wizard/

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug19Post.mp4"></iframe> https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug19Post.mp4 When I was a kid I was a huge fan of the Twilight Zone. Spooky stories with unexpected twists. One was kind of weird. A bunch of guys had this airplane that didn't fit anywhere. Nobody remembered anything, and they kept disappearing. But the crux of the whole episode was realizing that it wasn't true. Just some horrible imagination that became real. And it was proven to be false when one guy stuck his hand into the still spinning prop. And then the plane vanished. This is a pretty good metaphor for our common fears. So long as we stay stuck, our fears will keep us stuck. But our fears are make believe. As soon as we take one step in the direction, the fear will vanish. And turn into excitement. Which is necessary. If you are going to be engaging socially, you need that extra energy. But that extra energy is easy to misunderstand. Once when I was in high school a buddy of mine and I decided to rebel against the system. What this really meant was that we were going stand up a minute before the bell rang. I know, dangerous rebels we were! But instead of getting a lecture by our teacher, everybody copied us. The teacher looked up at the clock, then looked at all the people standing up, and didn't say a peep. Most people will never be leaders. One of the most common fictional hero is the hero that is kind of forced to become a hero. Not one that steps up on his own. We LIKE this character because we all have a twin fear-desire idea. We'd LOVE to be in charge, but we don't want to stand up and TAKE charge. We love the idea of having "greatness thrust upon us." That way, we get the best of both worlds. This is how most people view the world. Under most situations we will ALWAYS look around for somebody to tell us what to do. Or to give us permission to tell others what to do. This is why we LOVE movies where characters are "thrust into greatness." But here's the thing. Leadership is very much like the two guys and the bear. Those two guys that were out hiking, and they saw a bear. One guy starts putting on his running shoes. The other guy says, "Dude, what are you doing? You can't outrun a bear!" To which the running shoes guy says: "I don't need to outrun the bear. I just need to outrun YOU!" This is the secret of leadership and frame domination. You don't have to have the frame of James Bond to take charge. You just have to have slightly stronger frame than everybody around you. And since most people's frames these days are pretty weak, that is pretty easy. Especially when you exhibit leadership and frame domination very subtly, very subconsciously, and very, very effectively. Learn How: https://mindpersuasion.com/stage-wizard/

https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Jan04Post.mp4 It's no secret that today's dating market is a dumpster fire. A romantic disaster. It's very easy to get frustrated today. Our instincts are getting yanked all over the place. If you're a guy, you can't help but to notice bombardments of pretty faces everywhere you look. At the same time, getting something going seems next to impossible. It's like being adrift on the ocean, and dying of thirst. Water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to drink. It would SEEM that the ladies have it easy. All they need to do is put up a decent photo on any online dating app, and they get tons of responses. Right? Not so fast. Believe it or not, ladies are just as frustrated as guys today. Sure, they get tons of responses, but nearly all of them are about as helpful as spam. Everybody is the same boat. That boat that is surrounded by water that you can't drink. The reasons for this are many. A corrupt system, tons of social media, the world sinking into entitlement. Everybody feels they deserve the goods, but nobody feels responsible for putting in any effort. Kind of like only eating processed, deep fried sugar. It sort of tastes good, but if that's ALL you eat, it will kill you. Male and female dating instincts are being fed with pure junk. That's why everybody is frustrated. Luckily, it's easy to fix. Especially if you are a guy. Guys are meant to lead. One of the reasons so many women are frustrated today is most men absolutely CANNOT lead. Most men are under the impression that looks are just as important to women as they are to men. Most men actually believe that if you get shredded, get some Chad like looks, all you need to do is show up, and the women will flock to you. This is what happens when you're ONLY experience is in online dating. In reality, your personality, your confidence, your frame are MUCH more important than how you look. Even more than how much you make, or how much you have. Think of an old fairy tale. What kind of guys do girls fantasize about? The prince. The man who WILL become king. Not the king. This is the missing ingredient in the modern dating dumpster fire. The missing ingredient is men with AMBITION. Not bling, not six packs, not looks. But raw, ancient male AMBITION. Build this, and you'll never worry about dating again. Learn How: https://mindpersuasion.com/get-girls/

There's a famous story of Hachi, a dog in Japan. He would follow his owner to the station every day. Hachi's master was a professor. Hachi would wait for him at the station around the time he got off work. But one day Hachi's master died at school. But Hachi kept waiting. (If this sounds familiar, they made a movie about this with Richard Gere). Now, exactly WHY Hachi (a dog) kept waiting is anybody's guess. Since we humans like to imagine animals with human emotions, it's a good story about loyalty, obedience, friendship, etc. It's also pretty widely known that when people lose limbs, they can develop "phantom limb syndrome." If they have their leg amputated, for example, they wake up nights with leg pain in their leg they don't have any more. Doctors recognize this as real pain, not imaginary. It seems both our brains, and a lot of animals (like Hachi) expect certain things to be there. And when they are gone (masters, legs, etc) we don't know how to cope. So our subconscious pretends they are there. This is normal. Plenty of experiments show, again and again, that humans are hierarchical. We NEED to line up according to SOME KIND of "pecking order." Even if there ISN'T a "real" leader, we NEED one. So we'll take whatever we can get. But it's really not so different from Hachi waiting for his dead master or somebody waking up with phantom limb pain. If there isn't a REAL leader, we'll IMAGINE one. This presents a good opportunity, both for good AND for evil. If you are evil, and you recognize people are desperate for a leader, you can easily hijack their minds and lead them to terrible places. Sadly, this happens quite often. On the other hand, if your intentions are GOOD, you can do the same. Lead people to wonderful places. Physical places, mental places, places of opportunity and discovery. Even inner exploration. If you lead, they will follow. Learn How: Cult Leader

I used to work with this guy that was from Cambodia. He was a living example of the saying that, "If you took all the money in the world and spread it out evenly, it would be back in the same hands within a generation." What does this mean? It means that those to have a lot of money, generally got it because they have skills that most of us normal humans don't have. Of course, more than a few people with these "money skills" are sociopaths who ONLY care about getting more money. But most of the folks who have a ton of money, worked for it. Just imagine for a second if the ONLY way to get a ton of cash was to be "evil." That means for us normal humans, we would HAVE TO choose between "evil" and "broke." Luckily, that's not the case. The question, however, is WHAT skills do those "money people" have? My Cambodian friend is a shining example. He came from a rich family. But when the communists took over, they had to flee. And they lost everything. He was even stuck in a "re-education" camp for a few months. Nearly starved to death. But when he eventually got to the states, he got busy building his fortune. Or RE-BUILDING. He was smart, so he studied everything he could. Worked in hospitals, build his own computers, and finally got an advanced degree in electronic engineering. But his degree and his technical skills are NOT what got him rich. He has a very rare skill, a skill most humans DO NOT possess. He would be in meetings with other engineers, smart dudes, and managers. They'd have a problem and nobody would know what to do. They were all worried, but this guy was frustrated. Frustrated that with all the brainpower sitting around the table, nobody was confident enough to make a decision. So HE started making the decisions. And THEY started following them. Some of them were right, some of them were wrong. But by CHOOSING what to do, and choosing STRONGLY, he made himself INVALUABLE to any company he worked for. And THAT is the skill that will get you paid. (And a lot else!) With that skill, and that skill alone, you can hire the smartest people in the world, and build an EMPIRE. Because most people are DESPERATE for a real leader. Even the smartest guys on the planet. When you LEAD, they will follow. Learn How: Cult Leader
