SUMMARY:
- Never start your request with the words "Could you..." It can cause the other person to subconsciously assume that this is a theoretical question
- If you ever want someone to feel uncomfortable, look at the middle of their forehead during the conversation.
- If someone you're talking to is trying to avoid answering a question, just make a pause in the conversation while still keeping eye contact.
- When asking a question that you want an affirmative answer to, try to nod subtly as you make your request. This trick is often used by restaurants employees to make guests buy more food, and it’s pretty effective!
- If a person is really concentrated on a task (let's say they're in the middle of a serious phone conversation), you can extend your hand to them and get anything they’re holding at the moment.
- If you want somebody to do something for you, casually say how they probably wouldn’t even be able to do it. Most people will try really hard to prove someone wrong when it comes to doubting their capabilities.
- Here’s a good one for negotiations. If you like a person's offer in general but would like to get better conditions, pretend to be a little bit disappointed.
- As soon as your alarm clock goes off, sit up, make two fists, and yell "Yeah!" as if you’re a soccer player who's just scored a goal. It sounds bizarre, but it really does help you easily get out of bed feeling refreshed.
- If a person tries to pull you into an argument or some drama, say something nice to them. The ol’ “kill ‘em with kindness” trick really does stop them in their tracks.
- If you have that one lazy person on your team that slows the whole work process down, don't give them tasks by saying "Do this." It’s better to say "Start with this."
- If someone is staring at you in the subway (happens all-too often, right?), just look at their shoes. Don't give up, keep gazing! It’ll drive them crazy!
- If someone has done something wrong, but you don’t wanna sound too accusing, change the way you construct your sentences.
- If you didn't get a good night's sleep, tell yourself that you did. I know, it sounds like nonsense, but it does work 100% if you say it with meaning!
- People are better at remembering what happened at the beginning and end of the day. As for anything that went on in between, it gets blurry.

    Imagine trying these tricks on someone and that person watched the video too.
  • @johnes
    When you are late to something, don’t say sorry I’m late. Say: thank you for your patience. This especially works well for sales jobs and makes the person you say it to feel more respected.
  • “Smile because it makes people wonder what you are up to” is a quote I heard a long time ago!
  • @itzllammacornz
    I was staring at my friends forehead and she said "I know it's big."
  • @alaine2256
    When I was younger I knew my mom wouldn’t let me have something so I’d wait till she was on the phone and she’d shake her head yes. That’s how I got stuff I wanted as a kid 😂
  • @Anon16290
    who else watches these videos then forgets about them and ends up in an awkward situation
  • @trUth.365
    When trying to grab someone's attention who is talking loudly over you...Simply just speak softly to them... continue this no matter how loud they are... Subconsciously they will quiet down their voice and speak more softly as they attempt to listen to your words. It's like when you turn the volume down on the radio in your car when you are trying to find an address or see something important infront of you. Try it...It Actually Works!
  • @shadowgamer970
    When someone is staring at me, it feels so uncomfortable because it feels like they are judging your looks...
  • @DrShaym
    When you get pulled over by a cop and he asks you if you know how fast you were going, tell him, "I don't know, but you must have been going faster if you caught up to me." This will cause him to have an existential crisis, enabling your escape.
  • When someone is staring at me, I also stare at them . In just a milliseconds, they will stop staring at you 😂💯
  • @goldenpeanuts9
    Loudly say “Look Away” always leaves the starer bewildered 😅
  • When someone is tailgating you on the road, reach up and slowly pretend to adjust your mirror. Most times, the tailgater will back off. It subconsciously reminds people of police officers adjusting their mirror. I learned that years ago and it really works!
  • @shion9203
    I wanted to avoid a person's conversation so I looked at their forehead and they thought I was cross eyed.
  • @irend1163
    The wake up trick is doesn't seems work The bed pulled me again, the gravitational power is so strong
  • Growing up the youngest in my family, I was often ignored, and sadly still am. Whenever I had something I thought was important, but nobody was paying me attention, I would loudly yell 'fine! I won't say it!'. That always got them begging me to say what it was. I would resist for a minute, enjoying the power I suddenly had over their curiosity, then tell them. Worked every time growing up.

    When you need someone to do something, especially if you have a complaint, in a polite tone, start the conversation with “I have a problem. Can you help me?” This works wonders at the customer service counter. Those poor people are so accustomed to yelling and demands that a polite request for help makes them inclined to give you more than you are entitled to. I did this at an airline counter and got $50 in drink coupons when the only thing I was entitled to was an apology.
  • @ipettynote
    alarm goes off YEEEEEAAAAH! Silently cries back to sleep
  • @pheihafwen8330
    As soon as I turned off my alarm, I yelled "Yeah" and went back to sleep
  • @ericsmith-sx8xi
    I stare at my boss ,when he is talking to me. Makes for a short conversation
  • @dbergerac9632
    I'd get my bosses to approve my requests for parts, vacation time, or pretty much anything by just saying " I don't think that you can approve this, would you tell me who I should go to with my request?" They'd do ANYTHING to prove that they had the authority to approve it.
