How to get instant obedience from people
Published: Tue, 01/30/18
And, we went to see a movie I really wanted to watch (a “guy” movie) and she (almost on cue) started immediately complaining.
She complained about the theater.
She complained about the people (she had a point there, actually...)
She complained about the food.
And, she complained about everything and anything else she could think with.
It was nothing but bytch, bytch, bytch… moan, moan, moan.
This was shortly before the lights dimmed for the trailers. And, without looking at her, I calmly told her to quit complaining. I also told her, in no uncertain terms, if she hated everything so much, she should go sit out in my car.
The result?
Right on cue (as predicted) she stormed out of the theater.
And, also as predicted, she expected me to chase after her like pretty much every other guy she’d been with would have done. “I’m sorry, please come back, don’t stay in the car during the movie... I’m sorry, c’mon back… pleeeease…”
Of course, I didn't do that.
Instead, I rooted for her to make the decision to stay out there.
(So I could enjoy the movie without all the sighing & racket.)
Yes, it was awkward that she ran out like that (sort of like when a child throws a temper tantrum when he doesn’t get his way). It was also clear she was extremely mad I didn’t want to listen to her “emote” about everything, and that I wasn’t going to put up with it. But, I didn’t care. I continued to enjoy whatever I was eating, and (a few minutes later, as the lights went down) she came back in, took her seat... and apologized.
And that was as it should be.
Because, you see, she knew she was misbehaving.
She knew she was being irrational.
And, she knew I was not going to reward her misbehavior by following her and gushing all over her apologizing and begging her to come back.
Instead… I did the exact opposite.
The result?
She went from unruly and misbehaving... to being pleasant and quiet, and ultimately enjoyed the movie more than she would have otherwise.
Anyway, why should you care about any of this?
Probably, you shouldn’t care.
Unless, of course, you want to know all the other details about what I did, and, even more importantly, how to apply that exact same info (whether you are a man or woman) to clients, customers, and other difficult-to-deal-with people in business, to get obedience when required.
It’s powerful knowledge to have.
