1
When you speak, you are being judged.
2
So if you want to be respected, you need to be in complete control of this and this and this.
3
So today I'm going to show you real proof from business leaders,
4
experts, celebrities, and myself after running a portfolio of dozens of businesses to command respect and attention.
5
Because if you can't take control of any room when you walk in, how can you expect to take control of your income, your opportunities, and your future?
6
By the way, if you don't know me, I'm Cody Sanchez and I run a nine -figure holding company called Contrarian Thinking.
7
Let's get you in the CEO seat.
8
Focusing on words.
9
You know what separates people who command respect from those who don't?
10
It's not their title, their bank account, or even their expertise.
11
It's actually how they speak.
12
And I'm not talking about having a fancy vocabulary or perfect grammar.
13
I'm talking about simple shifts and how you use your voice that will make people lean in, listen up, and take you seriously.
14
Let me show you this clip from jordan peterson
15
so we can steal his homework let's say you've got a kid
16
and you want the kid to improve you don't set them a bar that's
17
so high that it's impossible for them to attain it you take a look at the kid
18
and you think okay this kid's got this range of skill here's a challenge we can throw at him
19
or her that exceeds their current level of skill
20
but gives them a reasonable probability of success do you notice
21
a few things about it his pace he's speaking at he doesn't rush his words, like he's apologizing, he speaks deliberately, like every word matters.
22
In short, he slows way down.
23
When we're defending an unpopular opinion, like he often does, or if we're trying to prove our worth, most of us speed up like we're afraid someone's going to cut us off.
24
But here's the thing, rushing makes you sound anxious, not authoritative.
25
When you slow down, you give yourself space to think, which means fewer ums and more confidence.
26
A perfect place to slow down is in meetings.
27
I remember explicitly the first time I had a big chance
28
to talk to the CEOs at a company called Vanguard back in the day, I was probably 21 years old.
29
When they said, do you have any questions?
30
My hand shot up so fast.
31
The problem is I really didn't think very much about what I was gonna say yet.
32
So probably my series of questions came out like, well, you know, I've been thinking a lot about what we should do here at the company.
33
And what I've realized is that there's a lot going on.
34
And then I think what's happening is I probably said nothing
35
really quickly for the first 30 seconds as opposed to my friend Jordan who is smooth as butter
36
that guy and he was so perfect.
37
I remember him taking down notes while I was yapping on
38
and he looked at me because he's the nicest guy in the world and was like those are great points.
39
Then proceeded to make actual great points.
40
He said you know I was listening to what you said.
41
Two things stood out to me.
42
The first being we were never taught how to be leaders in school.
43
We were taught how to do, not how to lead.
44
So I really appreciate that part of this company.
45
The second point would be, I would love to do more meetings like this.
46
Just hearing the way that you communicate as the CEO makes me communicate differently as a leader.
47
Shut up, Jordan.
48
So it's not just you, lots of us are talking fast and not thinking too much.
49
Be Jordan, not Cody 20 years ago.
50
It also helps when you assume people want to know what you have to say.
51
This is a mindset shift that changes everything.
52
When you assume your audience is bored or disinterested, you become nervous.
53
You start over -explaining.
54
But when you assume they care about your message, you relax, you speak with purpose instead of apology.
55
Jordan's a master of this.
56
He treats every statement like it's valuable information his audience needs to hear, not like he's asking permission to speak.
57
So if you want to make yourself articulate, it, which is a very good idea, then not only should you read,
58
but you should write down what you think.
59
If you're going to speak effectively, you have to know way more than you're talking about.
60
Think about what he just said to you.
61
He said, if you want to be smarter, you should not only read, but write.
62
That's literally, that's what he said.
63
But the way that he said it made you pause and think that maybe there was something more there.
64
And notice how else Jordan talks.
65
He changes his pitch strategically throughout his delivery.
66
Most people speak in a boring, monotone way, which makes even the most important ideas sound forgettable.
67
Jordan does the opposite.
68
He raises his pitch to emphasize key points and lowers it to drive home conclusions, creating this rhythm that keeps you locked in, even if he's only talking about writing and reading.
69
When you speak in a flat, unchanging tone, you're essentially telling your audience that nothing you're saying matters.
70
You're making it easy for them to tune out.
71
Next, notice how clean Jordan's speech is.
72
You rarely hear him say, um, uh, like, or you know.
73
That's because he's mastered the art of tossing his fillers.
74
Here's what clear speech sounds like.
75
See, I think the biggest challenge I had in my generation was negotiating the years between 13 and 15, something like that.
76
But my sense is now the biggest challenge.
77
to young people is negotiating the transition into adulthood into adulthood identity
78
and i think that's partly why we have this terrible war
79
in our culture about what constitutes identity you see that's what clean speech sounds like
80
and here's what fumbling over your words sounds like um
81
and uh you know people people say that well you you want to be able to make the
82
you want to be able to make a call with those specifications all right i'm a huge elon fan
83
but I think he's leveled up since then.
84
Maybe he's even watching this video because those little verbal crutches sneak in when you're buying time to think.
85
Elon can get away with it.
86
He's a genius.
87
You can't.
88
Every filler word is you essentially saying, I'm not sure about this, but I'm talking about it anyway.
89
Jordan replaces thinking time with strategic pauses, which actually makes him sound more thoughtful and in control, although it may take him longer than even it took Elon.
90
So in this clip, watch how Jordan does it.
91
I don't think there's any difference between free speech and thought.
92
And it has to be free because if it's not free, it's not thought.
93
When you have a problem, you have to think.
94
And if you have a problem, the thinking is going to be troublesome because you're going to think things that upset yourself and upset other people.
95
Do you see how Jordan pauses instead of using filler words to plug the spaces in his speech?
96
And if you listen to his voice itself, he's naturally tuned in to project authority.
97
His pitch is deliberately lower, his volume is controlled, he varies his tone to emphasize key points.
98
This is what we call tuning your voice, using it as an instrument to guide attention and create emphasis.
99
Let me tell you how you can really mess up the tuning your voice and speaking too slow.
100
Have you ever been in a meeting and you're like, dear God, for the love of all that's holy, please get it out.
101
Get it out.
102
Get whatever you're going to say out.
103
I don't want you to slow down so much in meetings
104
that you get in the way of people instead i want you to think
105
and i want you to prep and then i want you to speak
106
when you speak i want you to think about an exclamation point at the end of almost every word
107
and not a loud exclamation point but a definitive one
108
sounds something like this i love the points that you just made becky i actually feel the exact same way.
109
See the exclamation, exclamation, exclamation?
110
One small difference.
111
Using a number again, also showing that I have an area of expertise she doesn't.
112
One small difference.
113
I believe our problem is sales, not LTV.
114
See how punchy each line is?
115
That little exclamation point will take you very far.
116
These five shifts are respected multipliers.
117
And here's why that matters for your bank account.
118
Every raise you negotiate, every client you close, they're all judging how speak before they decide whether to give you more money get your voice right
119
and you'll literally talk your way into more money
120
but you could master every single one of these techniques
121
and still get completely ignored if you're making critical mistakes with your body
122
so let's focus on
123
that next listen to this quote from kevin o 'leary on body language i'm sitting right in front of them
124
when they walk out on the carpet
125
when they step out the floor director says okay stand right
126
there i do this thing where i just look at
127
and i watch their body language
128
and i can tell after about 90 seconds winner loser pretty crazy isn't it your body language says
129
so much while your mouth says nothing at all
130
and on television the body language in front of a shark well that's going to command attention
131
or not that is what we call claiming your territory most people especially
132
when nervous make themselves smaller they kind of cross their legs they hug their arms their body they lean away
133
but watch what the rock does as opposed to this other
134
guy how does it feel to sit across from him it's very humbling i was thinking
135
that when we started the interview no thank you thank you uh really though
136
so the first guy we're gonna show you sits like this
137
foot sort of weirdly to the side slouching a little bit casual spread legs
138
but still kind of looks diminutive right now let's look at
139
the rock feet firmly planted on the ground hands in front
140
of him chest out stands up straight he's claiming his space
141
because in his mind he does own the building now it's
142
fascinating in this next clip i want to show you guys i want you to see a move
143
that will happen without you saying a thing if you're not really thoughtful about what's on your face.
144
Managed with the idea of being very private in a very public job.
145
Jamie, I'll go with you first.
146
I think it's incredibly easy. Do you?
147
I think you can court all that nonsense.
148
You guys could probably guess that he didn't love that question regardless by the look on his face.
149
It was so good it's become an internet meme.
150
You don't have to really say anything in order to be heard.
151
There are so many things you can do that become power moves.
152
Place your fingers together in front of your chest like Kevin did that's called steepling.
153
And it's one of the most powerful confidence signals you can send.
154
Now, if you raise your eyebrows, look to the left or right, that's saying, I'm not actually listening to you.
155
Disrespect.
156
Steepling works because it keeps your hands visible.
157
So it signals honesty.
158
It's the body language equivalent of saying, I'm confident enough to be still and to keep my hands right here where you can see them.
159
But I want you to notice how people in power moves gesture when you're making important points.
160
This is telling you, pay attention to me.
161
This is saying, it's a very tiny opportunity.
162
This is saying, huge, but I don't have to say anything.
163
Vanessa Van Edwards, my friend, likes to call this the truth plane.
164
When you're nervous, your hands gravitate towards your chest or neck.
165
When you're confident, they settle lower.
166
And if you pay attention to eye contact, it's not just direct, the rock was calculated.
167
He holds it slightly longer than most people are comfortable with.
168
This is a subtle power dynamic.
169
He's not staring aggressively.
170
He's demonstrated he's completely present
171
and unintimidated unconfident people break eye contact they look too quickly especially
172
when delivering important information but sustained eye contact three to four seconds before glancing away
173
that creates connection that helps you bond these aren't just posture tips they're power signals
174
that change how people respond to you before you even speak
175
but knowing what not to do is just as important
176
so let me show you exactly what kills your credibility instantly let's flip the script
177
and look at someone who despite being one of the most
178
successful entrepreneurs on the planet shows you what not to do with your body language.
179
On Facebook's social media privacy and the use and abuse of data, although not unprecedented.
180
Notice how he's nodding awkwardly like a dashboard bobblehead on a bumpy road?
181
That's not engagement.
182
It's submission signaling.
183
Excessive nodding makes you look like you're desperately seeking approval or agreement, even when you should be projecting authority.
184
Real engagement means nodding only when you generally agree, or when you want to encourage someone to continue.
185
Now watch his smile in this next clip.
186
See how it looks like he was programmed maybe by his own algorithm?
187
Nice.
188
What else is coming?
189
I love Beat Saber.
190
Lay it on us.
191
I'm excited.
192
All right, thanks, Deb.
193
This is going to be amazing.
194
I think it's time for my workout.
195
But enough with the fun and games.
196
Love the guy, but wow, this is awkward.
197
Genuine smiles involve the eyes.
198
This is what we call the dutching smile.
199
While forced smiles, they stop right here, right?
200
His mechanical grin actually undermines his credibility because people instinctively recognize inauthentic facial expressions.
201
A neutral, thoughtful expression, infinitely better than a fake smile.
202
Another thing to be careful about, self -touching.
203
These are gestures that make you feel calm, but they signal you're uncomfortable in your own skin.
204
So every time you adjust your hair, your collar, you mess around with the pin, you're essentially saying, I'm not very comfortable here.
205
If you think you're alone, you're not.
206
I have a member of my team who I love.
207
She's very competent, but one of the other leaders in our business actually pointed something out to her.
208
When she would communicate, she would be intensely listening
209
and automatically her hands would kind of go to her face right in front of her lips.
210
This is a huge problem for two reasons.
211
One, what the fuck are you talking about?
212
I can't see what she's saying.
213
She's got her fingers in front of her face on a Zoom meeting, total nightmare second is this is actually a trigger for lying
214
when you touch your face there is a signal in our brain
215
that tells us they're hiding something why because you're actually hiding your face
216
and it's almost like you don't trust the words
217
that are coming out of your mouth you may be the most trustworthy person in the planet
218
but if you're signaling you're not think about it like
219
then people are probably going to believe you another thing some
220
people like to do is called prop blocking essentially it's creating a physical barrier between you
221
and who you're speaking with It makes you appear closed off, untrustworthy.
222
So try not to do it.
223
Instead, confident people don't keep their body closed or things in front of them.
224
They don't hide behind objects or create barriers.
225
They're open, accessible.
226
If you have to have something in your hand, you keep it to the left, you keep it to the right, but you don't keep it in front.
227
Now, notice Mark's posture during this video call.
228
How unnaturally straight is this?
229
I have to say, when you're building products to try to connect everyone in the world, um connecting folks who are out in space um is about as extreme
230
and cool as it gets
231
so it's it's awesome to have the opportunity to okay again an incredible guy
232
but it looks like he's following a manual on like how
233
humans should sit this posture makes him look uncomfortable inauthentic robotic with real confidence it's easy you're alert
234
but not rigid present but not performing The most damaging aspect of poor body language isn't that it makes you look bad, it's that it makes people question your authenticity.
235
When your words say one thing but your body says another, people trust what they see more than what they hear.
236
So Mark's disconnect between his verbal confidence and his physical discomfort has caused the internet to call him a cyborg, which I don't know, maybe and the irony is
237
that his success proves that good ideas and execution can overcome poor presence
238
but imagine how much more influential he could be
239
if his body language matched his brain
240
so the way you move can kill your credibility but
241
if you just pay more attention to your body movements you can command respect without saying anything
242
and when you do that you make more money have bigger opportunities
243
and better deals think about it people don't invest in ideas they invest in the person presenting them
244
so your body language either costing you money
245
or making it there's one more element that ties everything together your overall presence
246
and how you show up authentically in any situation
247
so you've mastered your voice you fixed your body language
248
but there's still something missing you can speak with perfect authority
249
and stand with complete confidence but
250
if you're boring people will still tune out it doesn't matter
251
so the difference between someone who commands attention for 30 seconds
252
and who gets it for 30 minutes is
253
that they've mastered the art of being genuinely interesting you have
254
to fight the lazy someone asks you what you've been up to you should have an answer
255
that makes them lean in not check for their phone
256
or see who else is behind them a simple compliment can
257
go a long way to getting someone to be more interested in you people love to be complimented
258
and if you genuinely point out something
259
that you like about them i do this almost every time
260
i meet somebody their style their humor nice bracelets i like
261
the hair what are those earrings this gives you an opportunity to continue the conversation
262
and if continuing the conversation is tough for you practice yes and.
263
This is a technique they use in improv school.
264
Keeps conversations flowing, more open -minded, and fun.
265
Basically, when someone shares an idea, acknowledge it or build on it.
266
Don't shut it down.
267
Don't change the subject.
268
Don't jump to what you care about.
269
You're going to turn the ordinary exchange into collaboration.
270
So for example, stop.
271
I've got a gun.
272
The gun?
273
The gun I gave you for our wedding anniversary, Eric?
274
How could you? we're not married.
275
Aha, we're not married is a denial.
276
We've learned our first improv lesson.
277
This is actually a really good lesson for life because think about it.
278
What she's saying is follow along with me.
279
Don't shut me down.
280
If you can do that in exchange, you can turn it into an adventure.
281
If you want allies in your job and in your life, it's really good to be a yes and -er, not a no thanks -er.
282
We want to think about how to build on things as opposed to tear somebody else's down now
283
that is really hard to do when you know maybe
284
that their idea is bad you've already tried it it's not going to work why would i listen to them
285
but instead i want you to take a pause and think about
286
if i wasn't allowed to shut somebody down do you think they would feel better not getting shut down
287
or worse after getting shut down probably going to feel better
288
if you don't shut them down so try this in the beginning especially
289
when you're not in charge this is a power move
290
when you're not the ceo and that is to go yes
291
that idea is super interesting i like it What if we also did, or what if we did this?
292
Or have you thought about that?
293
It allows you to take their stance and you're going to add your spin to it.
294
You even might actually be saying, no, this instead.
295
But the way that you say things matters.
296
Try that and tell me what works.
297
Next, just have an opinion.
298
Interesting people take thoughtful stances, sometimes contrarian ones.
299
It doesn't always mean you have to be rude.
300
You could say, I actually hate breakfast.
301
I know people think it's the most important meal of the day, I think they're wrong.
302
You could also say, huh, everybody today is talking about how there's a X, Y, Z happening.
303
I think it's a Y.
304
What is a closely held belief that you have
305
that would at least get somebody else to disagree with you or maybe agree with you?
306
This allows you to have a disrespectful or respectful conversation, but at least a memorable one.
307
Next, let's talk about the way you look.
308
If you're going to be in a business meeting and you wanna make more money, what should you probably do?
309
I don't know, dress in business clothes, right?
310
Actually, before I came in here, I was in my jean dress only because we're going to film something else that's pretty chill after this.
311
I was like, we're going to talk about confidence and we're going to talk about presenting.
312
I should probably put on a blazer.
313
This isn't rocket science.
314
It has nothing to do with your waistline.
315
You could be nice and round.
316
You could be really skinny and either way you could present yourself well.
317
Let's also think about what presentation you might have that's abnormal.
318
Let's say that you are a lumberjack.
319
You're looking for lumberjack activities.
320
Does Does it make a lot of sense for you to show up in a suit clean -shaven?
321
No, it doesn't.
322
So whatever you are trying to accomplish, sometimes it's just easier to look the part.
323
And lastly, here's something most people never think about, mirroring.
324
The most charismatic people unconsciously mirror the body language and speaking patterns of the people they're talking to.
325
They match energy levels, speaking pace, and even posture.
326
Instant rapport creation because people feel understood and connected.
327
Perfect example, if I came into a room full of engineers and I was like, hey guys, what's going on? i think we're going to do this this is going to be
328
so fun you guys want to go get beers after work
329
it's going to be amazing i'm having the best day ever
330
go team go what are the engineers going to do you're
331
like this psychopath first of all we're not talking to each
332
other everybody's got their oculus on we've got our sweatshirts over our heads don't talk to me we talk like this
333
simultaneously if i'm an engineer and i walk into a room full of salespeople
334
and i'm wearing said oculus i'm going to have a difficult time communicating with the meat -eating salespeople
335
so you want to mirror the person
336
that you're talking to don't be a creep don't be mark
337
zuckerberg trying to perfectly pattern what a human is like
338
but instead think about huh this person's a little soft -spoken
339
so just calm down cody don't come so hard at them this person's pretty intense, amazing.
340
I might speak faster, louder with my hands more.
341
This instant connection makes them feel seen without you having to say anything.
342
Super fast case study.
343
So back in the day, I was a rather confident little rascal.
344
And I sat in on a business meeting at a very large financial firm where I was working.
345
In that meeting, there was a series of leaders in there who are all very confident.
346
And one of them has what I would only describe as BDE, you know, sort of that big dick energy in meetings
347
and as we're sitting around this big conference table he's kind of like slouching you know
348
and like really just he's taking up space he's doing something
349
like this you know kind of laying back really think about it everybody's leaned into him
350
and i think
351
because i don't understand body language cues to hierarchy yet i
352
think that's why they're listening to him do you see how he's i'm gonna do the exact same thing
353
so super embarrassing little 22 year old cody walks into the next meeting to give a presentation to my managers
354
and as i'm presenting i sit back i'm like clicking through
355
the slides like this you know talking like we're all buddies
356
i remember horrified i thought i killed it by the way
357
at the end of the meeting i remember one of my bosses coming up to me
358
because corporate life i had like 52 bosses comes up to me
359
and was like literally what are you doing i was like
360
oh no were the numbers wrong she's like no why did you do
361
that weird thing where you leaned back and slouched everywhere
362
and i had to embarrassingly say i heard this thing called mirroring
363
and i was doing it because somebody else was doing it
364
so be careful there is a hierarchy to mirroring meaning you can't come in
365
and you know do a huge man spread on somebody who's
366
a way higher hierarchy than you i want you to mirror
367
but within your own frame
368
so now you have my tricks you can try to apply to your day -to -day conversations
369
and make more money let me show you exactly how this works in practice
370
and what good and bad looks like live now i'm going to take this all together
371
and teach you how to ask for a raise the right way
372
and the wrong way let's start by going back 20 years ago to cody before i ran all these companies
373
and show you how i would ask
374
if i absolutely did not want to get a raise
375
or make any money uh hey boss um do you just have a few minutes to talk about something
376
that I've been thinking about recently.
377
Oh, okay, great.
378
So I have been working really hard at the company.
379
I think you probably noticed like other people have been talking about it.
380
And I know that like the company has been doing really well.
381
And so I think that I deserve a raise and I deserve a raise because I do work really hard.
382
And so anyway, other people in the industry get raises and make more money than I do.
383
And so I think that I should.
384
not going to make any money let me show you the
385
right way to do it uh first of all ditch the props it's okay
386
if you have glasses ditch the blocker in front of you
387
the next thing you're going to do instead of having a
388
small position like this you're going to be wide instead of
389
having a constricted position you're going to be open instead of
390
having a closed leg position you're going to stand steady on
391
both feet your legs aren't going to be up here they're
392
not going be by your your throat they're instead going to
393
be right around the middle you're going to knock on the door
394
and make eye contact remember three to four seconds hey boss do you have a few minutes
395
slower no ums said the exact same thing i wanted to talk to you little pause you're making sure that
396
that person has your attention you have their attention they're making eye contact with you they're going to look up
397
and say okay I wanted to talk to you about my
398
job here at this company over the last couple of months
399
I've worked incredibly hard hopefully you've noticed you're very busy
400
so I understand
401
if you haven't what's good about this I'm using you language
402
I'm pausing I'm using inflection I'm also using my hands to mimic the motion
403
but not moving too much you may have noticed or you haven't, I know you're quite busy.
404
I researched and found that my position is really a market rate of X.
405
Right now, I'm being paid Y.
406
Because of that, I'd like to make sure that we remedy that between the two.
407
What are you doing now?
408
Rational.
409
You're showing left versus right.
410
You're giving numbers to back it up.
411
Numbers and statistics help your case immensely
412
when trying to communicate authority then you're going to say now
413
i understand what are you doing you back up for a second
414
because you're trying to make them not feel threatened you put
415
your hands out okay we're on the same page we're trying to get to the same thing
416
and then you say i understand that just
417
because a market makes x doesn't mean that i should be paid y
418
so what i'd like to talk to you about is what
419
i need to do to have my position be worth this to you is there something else
420
that i can do today at
421
which point you turn the raise conversation into an open negotiation
422
that is how you get a raise now you might actually
423
get a raise the other way your likelihood will be a lot less
424
and there will be disrespect by the way that you asked
425
so i hope if you use the second way and you watch this video
426
you can comment on this video
427
and tell me how much more money you actually got by asking your boss last little tip film yourself
428
because i think what you're going to find is you might think you're projecting authority
429
and all of a sudden you're the one sitting weirdly on your foot leaning to the left
430
or the right you have something in front of you that is your prop block.
431
You have ums and ahs in your sentence.
432
Instead, take a deep breath, refilm again until it's so cool, calm, and collected.
433
You know when you go into your boss's office, it won't be a problem.
434
Commanding Respect isn't about being the loudest person in the room or having the most impressive title.
435
It's about mastering the fundamentals of how you speak, how you act, and how you show up authentically in every conversation.
436
But the way you carry yourself is just the beginning.
437
The real game changer is how you think.
438
And if you want to learn how to think like the wealthy instead of just looking competent, I got you.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
