1
seduction is an high form of power if you're more seductive in your approach
2
if you're more indirect people will do what you want
3
or go in your direction without ever even realizing
4
it what makes for a great seducer is very simple i can summarize it very simply
5
you mentioned seduction there the art of seduction why did you
6
write a book about the topic of seduction seduction is a high form of power
7
because you make people feel pleasure you make them feel excited
8
or interested in you and then their their resistance to your ideas slowly lowers
9
and you have the ability to influence them
10
and to move them in the direction that you want
11
if you yell at them like we were talking about your child
12
and you tell them do this do that they were they're resented
13
and for good reason but if you're subtler
14
if you're more seductive in your approach
15
if you're more indirect people will do what you want
16
or go in your direction without ever even realizing it
17
so it was a sub theme in the 48 laws of power
18
and so I was sort of interested in the psychology of
19
that and why some people are good and some people are awkward about it so
20
when I finished the 48 laws of power I thought
21
this would be a natural segue the next book what are the qualities of a great seducer well
22
i like to distinguish between cold seducers
23
and warm seducers a cold seducer is something you don't want to be that's the typical image
24
that we might have of a male seducer
25
but even of a female seducer like the great courtesans etc whether just after money
26
or the men are just after sex that's not my ideal my ideal
27
is kind of a back
28
and forth quality where it's not domination it's sort of like a game
29
that you're playing it's like a mating game
30
it's like a courtship ritual where both part people are kind of seducing each other and
31
so what makes for a great seducer is very simple I can summarize it very simply you are outer directed
32
so when you meet somebody for the first time
33
or you're on a date or whatever it is you're not having
34
that internal monologue going does she like me
35
or does he like me am i dressed well am i
36
saying stupid things what can i do to impress them no you turn it off
37
and you're outer directed and you're listening to them
38
and you're entering their spirit and you're hearing them say things that
39
that give you idea of what they're missing in life of
40
what they want of what their needs are of what makes them an individual
41
you're absorbing it you're entering into their spirit
42
and then you can reflect it back to them you can give them gifts you can take them to places
43
that show that you're attentive to them because
44
if you look at how we are in our day -to -day life normally people never pay us attention
45
they're always so self -absorbed they're never thinking about us.
46
The times where you get the sense that people are actually interested in who you are as an individual is pretty rare.
47
If you give that feeling to someone, it's incredibly powerful because we all want to be validated.
48
We all want to be recognized.
49
So the seducer is not someone who's all worried about him or herself and thinking.
50
They're involved in the other person.
51
They're absorbed like a sponge inside their psychology, inside their world.
52
A lot of this is, you know, very applicable to romance and dating, etc, etc. It feels for whatever reason,
53
I, you know, not necessarily something I've read much about in your work,
54
but it feels like dating and romance and relationships have become much more complicated in the modern world,
55
that it's become much more difficult to seduce somebody.
56
What is the, what are the attributes of someone then that is not good at seducing?
57
Anti -seducer has many qualities.
58
I have a whole chapter on the anti -seducer.
59
I try and define it.
60
There's several of them.
61
I don't have them all memorized, but one quality that's very anti -seductive is preaching and moralizing.
62
It's like telling people, oh, that's wrong what you just said, or your politics are ugly,
63
or you're not really good at this or something or other.
64
Having a moral superiority, a sense of sanctimonious, sanctimony, in a realm which should be about pleasure, which should be that kind of equality,
65
that kind of back -and -forth dynamic, where you're asserting your moral superiority, is deeply, deeply anti -seductive, the element of preaching to people.
66
Not being generous, and I mean not just with money.
67
Money is important.
68
but not being generous with your spirit, right?
69
You want to be open.
70
You want to give as much as you can to the other person of yourself, of your time, of your money, of your energy, et cetera.
71
So being all kind of crimped and I don't want to give, I don't want to spend money.
72
I want to take you to the cheap place to eat.
73
I don't want to give you much time is very, very anti -seductive.
74
When you were talking a second ago about the person who goes on the date
75
and they're thinking about themselves and what their hair looks like or whatever else, that spoke to an insecure person.
76
Is insecurity a seductive quality or is it an anti -seductive quality?
77
It is anti -seductive.
78
Now, there is a part of weakness that is seductive.
79
So I would say vulnerability is seductive, but insecurity is anti -seductive.
80
There's a big difference.
81
Why does vulnerability draw people to you?
82
Because the sense, so if I can define seduction in simple terms,
83
most of the time we are closed to the influence of other people, particularly now we have these walls up because life is harsh.
84
People are coming at us with their advertisements, with their pleas, with their wanting money, with this and the other.
85
And we've all learned to be very defensive, right?
86
and seduction is an openness is the opposite of that
87
and you felt it when you were child towards your parents you felt very vulnerable
88
and open and and there was an element of your parents
89
and how they treated you that was very much like a seduction right
90
so seduction is about being open to the other person to the extent where you can even fall in love
91
you can fall under their spell
92
and the sense of letting go of your ego letting go of your defensiveness
93
and letting other another person enter your world is being seduced it requires vulnerability
94
if you meet the typical um scenario is of a man who's not vulnerable at all he's
95
so powerful and in control
96
and everything has no vulnerabilities it's frightening you know for a woman
97
it could be very frightening like this he's he's so strong he's
98
so invulnerable there's something wrong about it you know maybe he's
99
a serial killer maybe he's got skeletons in his closet something isn't right about
100
that what what seduces you about a puppy about a child about an animal is their vulnerability
101
it makes you want to hug them it makes you want to help them right the sense
102
which if you came upon a a tiger that's there
103
and they don't need that well that's not seductive i mean on your screen it is
104
but if they're there in your living room that's not seductive
105
but that puppy is right vulnerability the sense that somebody needs protection or help
106
brings out qualities in us that we don't normally have
107
that i think allow for seduction so that is being vulnerable
108
that is i can be influenced by
109
that other person i am open to the to their spirit
110
it right that's being vulnerable the word vulnerable I hate to sound like a professor
111
so excuse me in seduction comes from the road the root of it means a wound vulnus
112
so you have a wound inside of you and you need healing
113
and the other person naturally wants to help you right
114
but being insecure is the off means I'm so self -absorbed I'm
115
so worried about myself that I can't get out of it
116
and we've all had that experience when you meet somebody
117
and they and you can sense you can smell their insecurity in them i'm not judging them
118
because we all have insecurities it makes you feel insecure it makes you feel a little bit awkward whereas
119
if you meet someone who's not like that who's confident etc it brings out
120
that quality in you so if you're on a date
121
and there's someone who's you smell that kind of insecurity it makes you awkward
122
and insecure it creates a kind of a problem.
123
So that would be the difference between the two.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
