Author: [[Ben Settle]] Full Title: Super Villains of Persuasion Category: #books The first book Persuasion Secrets of the World’s Most Charismatic & Influential Villains covered the ten most important fundamentals for building rock-solid charisma and influence, including: 1.

Stake the time vampires 8. Ignore the sheep 9. Submit to patience 10. Be the Joker The Secret of Possessing Unequaled Greatness Makes His Every Word Radiate Influence! This Superior Confidence is the secret behind the persuasive power These Villains wield unusually strong powers of influence and persuasion due to the Superior Confidence behind their beliefs that nobody is going to stop them from achieving their Missions. Dan Kennedy, once said people are all walking around, umbilical cord in hand, wanting to plug it in somewhere. Yes, people are looking for someone with confidence and boldness to lead, guide, and direct them. To influence them. And in his NO BS Time Management for Entrepreneurs book he even admits: “Having a (preferably private) sense of superiority over others is another power-producing edge.” Perhaps the greatest PUA (pick up artist) who ever lived — the mysterious Roissy of Chateau Heartiste — uses this same principle of Superior Confidence to seduce, persuade, and influence the world’s most beautiful women. In his infamous 16 Commandments of Poon (under section XI “Be irrationally self-confident”) he reveals the simple secret to gaining that kind of charisma: “No matter what your station in life, stride through the world without apology or excuse.” And to have Superior Confidence is to possess powers of persuasion most men can’t even imagine. This is why, whatever you do, go forth and do it boldly, with Superior Confidence, and you will be instantly more persuasive.
