Secret Language of The Matrix

(please use responsibly)

- Tell someone they are funny

Magnifies existence of the behavior, leading to more of the behavior

- Tell someone to be funny

Magnifies absence of the behavior, leading to more absence

Proclaim things as if they are, NOT as if they're not

"You're a harder worker"
Affirms the identity of hard worker

People seek to be congruent to who others expect them to be

Especially when seen in a good light & praised

"You should work harder"
Affirms absence of hard work

Even if they are not, proclaim as if they are

Magnify the existence of a quality you'd like to see

By giving praise to them already impressing you with their demonstration

"You're actually really funny"

People would rather be impressive than be impressed

When people ask for things, they make a common mistake

Listing all they have done for them

Trying to 'impress' them before asking

Then they make the request:

"I need you to work harder"

Affirming to them their current identity is perceived as "not a hard worker"

🔑 Here's why it works

We are wired to AVOID LOSS more than we are to GAIN

By praising a good quality, this praise & good identity is 'to be lost' by not meeting the expectation

It also means they come to the conclusion of working hard

vs being told what to do

If they 'already have' the identity it's simply:

keep up the good work of that behavior

Appears to be exerting less energy, compared to:

Need to CHANGE & exert more energy to reach and gain the approval

Give the approval, it becomes theres to lose not to 'win' or chase

Doing follows being
Actions follow identity

Being LEADS doing

📜 "By your words you are justified & by your words you are condemned"

What we've just gone over is even more important with self dialogue

How can you get the most of what you got?

If you neglect the existence of what you got
Only acknowledging everything you are not

Think: "I need to work harder"
It's evidence & affirmation of BEING lazy

Affirm means to make firm
Repetition in thought crystalizes into belief

🧲Magnetism has both a positive & negative

Push energy & Pull energy
Inspiration & Desperation

If you think of the hard work you've done
It's evidence & affirmation of being a hard worker

Doing follows being
Actions follow identity

📜 "seek & you shall find"

Every truth is a half truth
Evidence of a quality can be found, if you look for it

People wait to see before they believe
But we only see what we believe

RAS (selective focus) in the brain only acknowledges significant things we already believe

Stated dozens of times in dozens of ways:

📜 "he calleth things which be not, as if they were"

📜 "whatsoever you ask in my name believe you have received them and they will be yours"

📜 "By your words you are justified & by your words you are condemned"

📜 "as you believe so shall be done on to you"

📜 "ask & be enveloped by your desire that your gladness be full"

📜 "seek & you shall find"

🔑📜 "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen"

Where attention goes energy flows

Give attention to the absence, more absence is created

Give attention to the evidence, more evidence is created
