THE INCREDIBLE POWER OF WORDS Introduction Whether we talk about efficient use of suggestion as a means to influence people’s behavior, seduction, hypnotherapy, NLP (neuro linguistic programming ) or sales techniques, when it comes down to consciously using the incredible power of words, the ideas we study and practice in one way or another all seem to lead back to the great works of Dale Carnegy, Milton H. Erickson, Richard Bandler and John Grinder. The present workbook presents ten indispensable and infallible stepping stones to successfully applying the art of influencing people. In fact, by using only these ten ingredients, your success rate in any and every of the categories listed above will soar dramatically. However, let there be no misunderstanding about this: this is a workshop. Adapting a new behavior or learning new techniques is not something you do by simply reading an article on the subject of your choice. If you really want to be more successful in any field, you will need to study, exercise and practice. This is not different when your goal is to learn how to more efficiently seduce people. The terms “seduction” and “seduce” are not arbitrarily chosen here. People just do not adapt behavioral patterns against their will. Nor do they fall in love against their will, or buy your products. The way in which you convince them of the advantages and benefits connected to following your suggestions, is what I call “seduction”. This work does not have the presumption of presenting a thorough guide on the treated subject. The media are flooded with both scientific and popular books, articles and documentaries that illustrate the power of suggestive communication. These offer literally thousands of useful tips to heighten the impact of your messages and are closely connected to other domains such as body language, psychology, sociology, human resources, communication, politics, sales, marketing and publicity. My only hope is that this work will prove useful to many people and will help them to obtain better results in their day to day private and business contacts.
