How To Command Respect If You’re Quiet
Use Carrot & Stick Motivation
we touched on this in our first tommy video and it’s one of his defining features he wields tremendous power over people using carrot stick motivation now obviously we don’t want to be threatening to murder children so how on earth can you actually apply this to your own life.
Well let’s say you want a raise or a promotion from work a lot of people would just go in and say hey boss i’ve been working here a long time i would really like a raise can i have more money very focused on i not very persuasive how could instead you apply carrot stick thinking you could say hey boss i feel like i can add more value to the company and play at a higher level what would you need to see from me in the next three months to promote me work with your boss to create a concrete list then nail everything on that list at the same time go out and get other job offers in three months you can show all the value you’ve created for your boss carrot and if they back out from the agreement you can tell them that you want to stay but you have other offers that pay more if they’re unwilling to give you a raise that’s the stick no murdering of children involved now
While that plan is extremely likely to work most people don’t have the confidence to execute it you might think that building that kind of confidence will take you a long time or maybe you even think it’s impossible for you that you could never actually build deep internal confidence but building confidence is way easier than you think with the right game plan you can become significantly more confident in just a few weeks
