More Reframes
I enjoyed my last list so let's see if I can think of any today.
1. Misplenings make you stop and think
This comes from the only Trump Truth posts I've ever seen. And chances are (unless you use Truth) the only one's you've seen. Trump misspells something and his posts spread like wildfire.
Maybe he really can't spell and is dislexic (in which case should he be mocked for it) or maybe he's getting you to stop and think, making his msg stick.
If you want people to really take in and remember what your slaying misspell a word or too.
2. Feelings > Facts
We all like to think facts matter, but they don't. We feel something and then back it up with whatever facts we have. This is why we buy a medium sized drink for more money when we only needed a small. Logically you spend less and get what you want, when feelings are involved we feel like we're losing out on something, so we spend more for the best deal.
If you want to change people don't use facts, change how they feel and the 'facts' will follow.
3. Bullying is a habit
4. Repeated lies are true
Or at least people act as if they are. If you're boss is unhappy with you just lie and say that your work is more amazing than anyone else's job. You're work is actually better than all them combined. You're work actually made a customer cry tears of joy it was so beautiful.
I use to say I was the king of teaching and wore a paper crown in the office. Now I talk about how beautiful my faceups are. It deflects anything they throw at me and I'm always happy because I believe my nonsense rather than their putdowns.
You don't need to convince everyone, but stand your ground and you'll convince a few.
