MBL Deck 2 Flashcards
Above _______________
Above all, just remember that you can influence others powerfully. It’s important to use your ethics to influence above the low-brow approach to persuasion. Above all this principle goes beyond all the things that aren’t usually discussed.
Anywhere _______________
You can use MBLs anywhere and more than that. Your influence increases anywhere outside of speaking with people in ordinary ways. You can have this power to influence anywhere but the times you don’t remember to use your skills.
Beyond _______________
Beyond all the ways you have yet to express yourself are all the ways that you won’t. And it’s important to go far beyond the inner secrets of influence to go beyond the outer edge of ordinary persuasion tactics.
Aside (from) _______________
Aside from what you already know about influence are the things you have yet to discover. So you can put aside everything you already have, in order to find everything you have not yet used but which can make you more influential.
Alongside _______________
Alongside everything else you know, what is the only thing that – alongside each personal experience of influence that you have had will allow you even more scope to influence others? How will you apply all that alongside what you have already done?
Here/There _______________
Everything you have here, is there for you to use when there is someone to influence you in the here and now. It’s important to make sure you are here when there is someone you need to influence there in front of you ready to hear what you have to say.
Inside _______________
Inside of everything you know, you’ll only find all those ideas that will help you become more influential in time. So you can step inside what you know and make sure what you say on the outside is as natural and effortless as what used to be on the inside.
On top of _______________
On top of everything else you know there is the sure knowledge that you can ethically influence others and be a force for good on top of influencing them in the ways that are important to you. This way you’ll be a force for good on top of being more influential.
Underneath _______________
When you dig underneath the surface of people, you will find that beneath it all lie a common set of drives and needs. To get inside someone’s mind and truly motivate them for the better, you need to get underneath everything they show you and find what they really are..
Next to _______________
Next to some of the things you might know already about influence, is everything else you don’t yet know. So to discover more about influence that you know now is as simple as finding all those things that are next to whatever you already know and use.
Beneath _______________
Beneath the surface of things lies a reality that most people do not perceive. When you uncover what lies underneath everything people usually say, you’ll find that beneath it all is something important that not even they know they are saying!
Between _______________
You can find ways to influence people between the things that you do and the things that you say. If you consider people’s life path between where they are and where they are going, you’ll find it easiest to influence them at that place in between that they have to pass without thinking about.
Far from _______________
Far from whatever influence problems have plagued you in the past, are all the things you have already achieved. Beyond those lie all the success you have yet to achieve when you step far from everything you’re focused on now and focus on some of the things that you have not!
Apart from _______________
Apart from the things you have tried to do to become more influential, are all the things that you have yet to use. You can take everything you know and set it apart from some of the things you have yet to try out, giving you more things to experiment with apart from what you already know.
In place of _______________
In place of many of the influence tactics people advise are some that work well because people do not realize their power. You can use some of these hidden tactics in place of what people are looking for and develop success in place of failure.
Anytime _______________
Anytime you do things differently you create an opportunity to learn something new. And you need to use new learnings anytime you want to achieve something you could not do before. So after you have succeeded in this way, you’ll know to repeat this process anytime you want to.
Before _______________
Anytime before you have achieved something new, you can look to the things that come after so you have a contrast of the things you’ll need before you achieve the things you want. Before you don’t start doing this, you must be present in the now long enough to allow things to happen naturally.
After _______________
You can always look back after you have achieved something and realize that only after doing certain things you had not tried before would you develop the knack of doing them well. After all, success usually comes after early attempts have evolved into those successes.
Earlier _______________
Success comes earlier to those that wait long enough to discover the knack for a particular task. Before future successes can be present, you need to reflect on earlier trials so that sooner or later you find success coming earlier than expected.
Later _______________
So is the problem that the situation happens later than you think, or is it just that you realize it later than you should? Shouldn’t later be a better time to reflect on the matter than doing it too soon? Sooner or later you’ll have an important insight anyway.
Yet _______________
You have not experienced the influence of this system yet. But to the extent that there are things you have yet to experience, you have more than enough options open to you that you have not explored yet.
Already _______________
Now you might think you already have more than you need to influence others, but to the extent that you have used what you already know by now, you still have the opportunity to learn enough new things that will take you beyond what you already know!
Now _______________
Learning new skills now is more than just reusing what you already know in different ways. It’s about going forwards and taking things you don’t have yet and making sure that now you can apply then quickly enough to get better results in the here and now.
Soon _______________
Everything that you have had until now is less than what you can have at your disposal soon. Because sooner or later you’ll look back on an intense learning experience and realize that it could not have come too soon given how much more you’re capable of now than you realized was possible!
