Rule #9: Win Through Your Actions, Never Through Argument

Hey everyone, it's been a while since I wrote a post on one of the laws of power, so i'm going to write one now, do some of my blog reading and comment answering, and rest up tonight.

Make sure to check out my financial blog and my awesome blog, just updated both of them not too long ago. Glad to read all the great comments, and look forward to hearing more of your thoughts and opinions.  Please feel free to criticize, praise, or completely overturn some of the things I say.  We all learn by testing each others thoughts and opinions, and become more powerful from it.

"Any momentary triumph you think you have gained through argument is really a Pyrrhic victory: The resentment and ill will you stir up is stronger and lasts longer than any momentary change of opinion.  It is much more powerful to get others to agree with you through your actions, without saying a word.  Demonstrate, do not explicate"

Hey everyone please watch this if you have not already, if your busy, come back here and watch it when you have around an hour to spare.  This is really good stuff, and I wouldn't be posting it if it wasn't.  Anyways, I look forward to reading a tonne of blogs tomorrow, enjoy.

Power of Words

Hey everyone, writing this post a little differently than usual, focusing today on the Power of Words which is going to be completely written by myself

Thanks for the comments on my last posts, and I mentioned this before, but expect some surprises in this blog in the near future.  Wouldn't want you all to get bored and used to what i'm writing about anyways.  My goal is to to keep it interesting day in and day out, also feel free to leave any feedback that you wish.  Hope you enjoy this post, keep updated, the next topics i'm going to be blogging about are going to be quite interesting.  Make sure you keep tuned in so that you don't miss out!



Introduction


Words are how most of us communicate in this world, and even if we have a great personality, good body language, and a lot of energy, we can create great misfortune upon ourselves depending on what words we choose in our everyday lives.

I bet you know of someone, maybe your friend, neighbor, or parents, who are constantly saying things like: "It's too expensive, i'll never be able to afford it," or perhaps "It's too difficult, I won't even bother trying."  When you think about it, we say A LOT of things everyday that affect the way we think, the way we feel about things, and the way we react to other people and base our decisions upon.

Whenever we speak, the words are etched deep into our own minds, and also into the minds of the people that hear our message.  Over time, patterns are created and good or bad habits can be formed and sometimes, we get used to the words that we repeat over and over again.  This is not always a good or happy thing. 


Imagine a friend that you have known for a long time, whenever you see him or her, you can already probably predict what will come out of their mouth judging by their body language and expressions.  It is easy to continue to use negative words in our everyday speech, but the main goal of power is to try and always use and think of words that will create a positive impact on yourself and others, and keep your energy, chi, or whatever you want to call it, balanced.
