[shahrukh]

People are more likely to agree to do a task for you if you ask them to do something simpler first. Gradual Commitment, makes people them think you like them. Even if, deep down, you want them to burn. *evil laugh*

7. Walking in the crowd.

[shahrukh]

Avoid the sidewalk shuffle by looking intently over the person's shoulder, or between people's heads in a group. Your gaze shows the crowd where you're going. They'll drift towards the opposite side or create a gap to avoid you. Try it the next time you're out catching a train.

8. Chewing gum.

[shahrukh]

When you're approaching a situation that would make you nervous like public speaking or bungee jumping, chew on a gum. If we are 'eating' something, our brain reasons it like 'I would not be eating if I were danger. So I must not be in danger'. Chewing gum all the time, however, will just make you look like a cow.

9. Keep calm and carry on.

[shahrukh]

Best way to handle a situation when someone is angry with you. If you stay calm, and not react,it'll get them even angrier, and be ashamed about it after, and apologise. Been on both sides of the fence on this one, trust me, keeping calm is the best thing.

10. Inception



My favourite. To plant a seed of idea in someones mind, ask them to not think of a particular thing at all. Lets say I ask you to NOT think about ELEPHANTS. What are you thinking of? Have fun trying these out.
