Language & Thought Control

This set of slides reviews the work of Lakoff, Jung, Bernays, Erickson. It reviews:

• Why every decision to buy or act is triggered by emotion rather than rational thinking.
  
• Why some people really do experience "love at first sight" or feel instant identification with an actor, a character, a politician
  
• Exactly how symbols and rituals reach past cognitive defenses
  
• What a "trance" or subjective state is and how to create one in story, a script, a film. 
• Specific techniques for individual and mass persuasion
  
• Why the "facts" almost never matter even when everyone agrees on them
  
• How to frame ideas and tailor your work so it becomes more influential.

You will find this information useful if:

• You want to be able to take people on mental and emotional journeys they will find meaningful.
  
• You are looking for ways to make your work more effective at helping people
  
• You wonder how charismatic politicians and cult leaders can persuade people to do things entirely against their best interests.
  
• You have always wondered why some stories and films pack a wallop and others simply don't.
