Covert Persuasion: Psychological Tactics and Tricks to Win the Game




240 pages | Wiley (2006) | English | ISBN-10: 9780470051412 | PDF
When we make decisions we like to think we weigh the options carefully, look at all the possibilities, and make the best choice based on a rational examination of the facts. But in truth, much of our decision making happens on a subconscious level based on feelings we might not even be aware of. Understanding and managing those subconscious feelings is the key to the art of persuasion.

By observing and predicting human behavior, we can learn to react and direct behavior in others with the right kinds of words and body language. If you want to learn how to convince people to buy your product, contribute to your cause, or vote for your candidate, this book has the answers. Covert Persuasion syn-thesizes the latest research in psychology, linguistics, sales tactics, and human communication to reveal the most effective methods for consistently and effectively persuading anyone of virtually anything.

Covert Persuasion sounds like a secret operation because it is; when you master these techniques and put them to use, no one will even notice your tactics. But that doesn't mean these techniques are sneaky or underhanded. They aren't! You aren't tricking anyone; you're simply using all your abilities to encourage them to make the choice you want them to make. It's not unfair or underhanded—it's just powerful, practical, and effective.

If you work in sales, Covert Persuasion will arm you with new skills and techniques you can put to use every day to dramatically increase your commissions. And if you don't work in sales, you can still use these tactics to convince colleagues, subordinates, and supervisors to help you meet your goals and get things done on a daily basis. Even outside of the office, persuasion is a vital skill everyone should have.

This reliable resource will help you with all your persuasion efforts, in every situation. Dip into it for fresh ideas and new techniques or use it to sharpen the skills you already have. For salespeople, Covert Persuasion will help you increase your sales almost immediately. No matter what you do for a living, this book will help you do it better.

Loss Weight Forever 50 Habits Of Naturally Thin People

50 Habits of ‘Naturally Thin’ People
This is not a diet—or a rigorous exercise programme. (Nobody can stick to those for long.) Instead, it’s a simple way to make weight loss a natural part of the life you already live. And guess what? It’s fun! You don’t have to give up the food you love or join a gym. It’s about balancing calories in tiny ways that add up to big benefits. You just adopt some tricks naturally lean people use. Pick the ones you like, stick with them and you’ll slim down and tone up—for good!

How to Get Started
Decide how much you want to lose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by the year’s end. Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises (it’s important to do both) you need to achieve your goal:

• Slash a total of 100 calories each day to lose about ten pounds in a year.
• Slash 250 calories a day to lose about two stone.
• Slash 500 calories a day to lose about four stone.

This is based on an 11-stone person; you may need to cut more or fewer calories, depending on your weight, age and gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same (you’re not overeating today, running a marathon tomorrow) and your weight is stable. For instance, a ten stone woman eats about 2,100 calories a day to maintain her current weight; a 15 stone man needs 3,150 daily to keep the scale steady. Now read on and start losing!

Foods That Burn Fat By Tom Venuto

Foods That Burn Fat. Many of my clients have told me that this ONE report was worth the price of the entire program. It's easy to see why: In this popular bonus report, you'll learn exactly which foods "burn fat" and speed up your metabolism - without having to cut calories drastically (when you eat these foods, you can actually eat more and still lose fat because these foods have a higher "thermogenic" effect!) This report reveals all the juicy details that most champion bodybuilders and fitness models would rather keep to themselves.

Foods That Turn To Fat. One of the best ways to learn what you should eat every day on a fat loss diet is to identify which foods you shouldn't eat on a fat loss diet. Then, by a process of elimination, you'll automatically improve your food choices! In the second installment of this bonus series, you'll discover which foods are most likely to turn to unattractive, mushy body fat, including the deadly fat-storing foods that you should almost NEVER eat (not even on "cheat day!)
