Strategies to Handle people :)

Strategy to handle people

Use logic Convince them
If u can’t Convince
Use more (tangential) Logic and Confuse them
If you can’t Confuse
Use much more (Weird) Logic and Distract them
If you can’t Distract
Use much more (Idiotic) Logic and Annoy them

Confusion is useful-->
  • While discussing future course of action with employees
  • While teaching (when u don’t exactly know it)
  • Specially used in “Terms and Conditions” worldwide
Distraction is useful-->
  • When one is in pain
  • When Boss is pointing out mistakes
  • When one is scared
  • When parents are looking at grades
  • When one is bored
  • When teachers ask about missing assignments
Annoyance –>
To learn usage of this strategy
Try asking logically for a raise or promotion and it will be used against you :P

PS: I believe everyone know about most persuasive strategy - Danda :D :D
