I'm fascinated with gazing, by how you can do it in different ways. All kinds of human behaviour and how to affect the thinking of another person is fascinating.
This all comes from perspective of.. selling your thoughts. In face to face situation, I find it usually easy to sell my opinion to the other person. Especially if he is not against me to begin with. I don't know the psychology behind these but I thought I'd read few books if these things have been examined, I bet they are so I want to know what the professionals say about it.
So selling, better word would be persuation. I'm fascinated by the idea of sudden persuation to a complete stranger, who then acts against his own benefit to benefit myself and does it gladly. This of course is part of .. social engineering, a subject that is one of my main areas of interest in IT security and general security, thus my studies and hopefully future career. BUt this is just part of it.
Maybe part of this is because I find these issues fascinating by nature so.. OK more to the point, now that I've explained my interest in it.
As I've said, I have no training, nor am I especially good at these things. I just think I do recognize lots of factors in play when you want to manipulate or put thoughts in peoples mind. There are so many important things, the way you look, act, the tone of your voice etc, but one of the things I'm now focusing on is the gaze.
It's really interesting, I think and I've tried this, when you don't look at people at their faces like you normally do, but inside their head, it makes you look more interesting adn therefore the subject becomes more receptive to you. What I mean by looking inside head is tha tyou don't look at the eyes per se, but look through it. This means you do not focus on the eyes at all, it's like when these karate dudes who chop bricks etc, they imagine the point to be lower than the bricks, not on top of the first brick. I imagine it the same way, where I look and gaze through those eyes. It doesn't give me much except that I have to concentrate a little bit more but the ones I'm talking to seem to be more receptive. Because I'm gazing them.. it's really interesting and when you act calm, collective and carefully place your words, talk a little bit more slowly thna you usually would, use your hands in calming effect, point making effect, it appears as if you are telling the truth, teh fact and something that is important. And it lacks the car selling man's thing where you kind of get turned off.
So I find this fascinating, I don't think many of you do but maybe someone does. Other areas of itnerest to me are.. for example NLP and B. F. Skinner's work, even though I think he's a straight up nazi, none of the less it's interesting.
I think if might be possible if you can properly engage in the gaze, combined with rest of correct body language, appearance, tone, carefully chosen words, you might even get into close hypnotic stages, not actual hypnotism, but let's say that you can become extremely persuasive and use manipulation on people. You can make them receptive that is. Make them like you.
