1. After asking a question, keep quiet and maintain eye contact. They'll open up more.
2. When you talk to someone fold your arms. If they do the same they're probably interested.
3. When asking for something, frame it as a choice. They'll say 'no' less.
4. When nervous, convince yourself you're excited. They both have the same body reaction.
5. When asking something, play naive. chances are they'll tell you more.
6. If you want to attract someone, wear red. It has an arousal effect.
7. If you want to make someone uncomfortable, look at their forehead while talking to them.
8. Shy people talk little about themselves, but in a way that makes other people feel that they know them well.
9. People look more attractive when they speak about the things they're really interested in.
10. Appear self sufficient and not always available. People want that they can't have.
11. Use humor to release tension. This diffuses the situation and puts you in control.
12. To be more impressive, say less than necessary. You'll come across less common and avoid criticism.
13. Want someone to tell the truth, get them to laugh before a question (less likely to bluff)
14. When asking for help, appeal to self interest. It puts you in power, not begging.
15. Don't overtrust friends; learn to work with your enemies. Friends can be deceptive and envious. Enemies have more to prove.
16. Anticipate what others expect of you and surprise them. This always puts you in advantage.
