Manipulation is one of those 'It takes
two to tango' human dances.
The manipulator says: "Poor me. I ask for so little… Can't you just be
nice?"
The 'manipulee' says: "I must be very important. I have so much power. Poor them…"
Guess who 'wins' this one?
DANCE WITH IT! EXPERIENTIAL APPS
An opportunity to experiment with some fun ideas…
GETTING UNHOOKED…
The most important
rule of thumb on this one: 'See it like
it is!'
If you find yourself
in one of these situations with someone who is getting you to do things you
really don't think make sense for you, ask yourself the following:
What indirect gain might
I be getting out of this situation?
Why do I actually
feel sorry for this person?
Do I feel superior
to them in some way?
Am I afraid of how
others will view me if I say 'No'?
Am I really doing
anyone a favor by saying 'yes'?
