Never Act Predictably
Introduction
An intriguing principle unites con artists, comedians, stage magicians, and mind control experts: "No one can defend against what they cannot predict."
The Unpredictable Advantage
This concept is key across various fields. Comedians surprise us, taking our assumptions and flipping them to provoke laughter. Con artists exploit the element of surprise, never revealing their true intentions. Stage magicians use misdirection, guiding our focus one way while working their magic elsewhere.
Mind Control and Influence
In mind control and influence, unpredictability plays a crucial role. The goal is to create a scenario where the subject naturally concludes what you want them to, without explicit direction. This can yield significant benefits, as it encourages the subject to draw their own conclusions and disrupts their habitual thought patterns?"what NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) calls a "pattern interrupt."
Pattern Interrupt Examples
Our daily lives are filled with habitual actions, like handshakes or opening doors. A pattern interrupt occurs when something breaks these routines. Imagine reaching for a doorknob only to find the door locked, or offering a handshake and the other person uses their left hand. These interruptions jolt us out of our expectations.
Cultivating Mystery
Consistently using subtle and bold disruptions sets you apart. However, it’s not just about being different; it’s about creating an aura of mystery coupled with confidence. This unique blend is naturally attractive.
Strategies for Unpredictability
1. Work Outside Ordinary Experience: Mention secrets with a knowing smile, saying, "I don't think I know you well enough," to create intrigue.
2. Find Depth in the Ordinary: Describe common objects as symbols of deeper ideas. An ashtray can symbolize letting go of negativity; a door can represent a new beginning.
3. Act Unpredictably (Sparingly): Occasionally acting out of character can make a strong impression. Ensure you have established rapport, as this approach could either instill trust or cause discomfort.
4. Embrace Humor: Humor is a socially acceptable way to create pattern interrupts. It helps keep engagements dynamic without making others uneasy.
Conclusion
To stand out, present the familiar in unfamiliar ways. This strategy, rooted in surprise and mystery, keeps you intriguing and compelling to those around you.
