How To Be A Successful Liar. by phlio(m): 2:01am On Mar 29, 2015 |
#1 Have a reason. "Prisons are filled with bad liars. "The good liars are out running HMOs." So what's the big difference? lie as little as possible - only when you actually have something to gain. "Pathological liars can't stop themselves from lying, so they tell a lot of little lies and wind up getting caught, Truly expert fabricators, on the other hand, save their ammunition - they don't bother to lie unless it's going to get you something you really want. #2 Lay your groundwork . Don't wait until you're under the interrogation lamp to start putting your story together. liars who had worked out the details of their stories beforehand had significantly more success than those who hadn't. As in everything, practice makes perfect. "It's easier to catch someone in a lie the first time they tell it," says #3 Tell the truth, misleadingly. The hardest lies to catch are those which aren't actually lies. You're telling the truth, but in a way that leaves a false impression. Technically, it's only a prevarication - about half a sin. #4 Know your target . Good liars have the same gift as good communicators: the ability to get inside the listener's head. Empathy not only clues you in to what your subject wants to hear, it will help you avoid stepping onto trip wires that will trigger their suspicions. "To make a credible lie, you need to take into account the perspective of your target Know what they know. Be aware of their interests and activities so you can cover your tracks." #5 Keep your facts straight . "One of the problems of successful lying is that it's hard work," You have to be very consistent in doing it." That means nailing down the details. Write down notes if you have to. "One of the things that trips people up is that they give different information to different people, who then start talking about it and comparing notes, #6 Stay focused. "When I'm trying to catch a liar, I watch to see how committed they are to what they're telling meIf I accuse someone of lying, and they're not very committed to the statement they just made, a red flag goes up." One of the reasons most people make bad liars is that they find lying a deeply unpleasant activity. Fear and guilt are evident in their facial expressions. They want to get the process over as quickly as possible, so they show relief when their interrogator changes the topic. That's a dead giveaway. Really good liars, on the other hand, actually enjoy the process of deceiving other people. "The best liars don't show any shame or remorse because they don't feel it They get a thrill out of actively misleading others. They're good at it, and they enjoy the challenge." #7: Watch your signals . It's folk wisdom that people fidget, touch their noses, stutter, and break eye contact when you lie #8: Turn up the pressure . If your target has clearly become suspicious then use you emotions and touch to sway him away ." #9: Counterattack. The fact is, just as most of us are uncomfortable telling lies, most are uncomfortable accusing others. This discomfort can be used in the liar's favor. "You'll often see politicians respond to accusations with aggression," 1 Like |
