About this listen
If you want to know more about the vicious cycle around you, then keep reading...
The truth is: Covert manipulation is needed when a person wants to gain power with the help of tricky techniques. People adopting these techniques will try to take control of the behavior, perceptions, and thoughts of the person they want to take control of.
The covert emotional manipulation takes place with the help of a conscious awareness of the person who has to be manipulated. The person is considered psychologically captive and, above all, they never realize what's going to happen. A skilled manipulator is capable of putting a person's sense of self-esteem and emotional health in his own hands. Once this is done, the manipulator ensures that the victim's self-esteem has reached its final limit. Do you want to keep abreast of tactics or signs that help in the identification of manipulation? Read on....
Victims often fail to realize that they are under the control of the manipulator. There are several tactics that the manipulators can use against the victims. It is always good to remain aware of these tactics and to know whether or not they are being manipulated.
Practice a manipulator game, so they can't play it with you. The detection for implicit emotional manipulation is difficult. You sense that something is wrong, but you can't really put your finger on the issue. This insightful book will prove to you that deceit is at play in your relationships. Your eyes will be opened.
Covering emotional manipulation is a deceptive and abusive way of controlling relationships. It happens when a person uses underhanded methods to change the thinking, behavior, and perceptions of the other person in order to gain power and control. It's really pitiful; nobody deserves to be treated like this.
What you will learn:
- Introduction
- Habits of manipulative people
- How to spot manipulation
- Ways people try to manipulate you
- Abuse
- Types of abuse
- Physical Abuse
- Emotional abuse
- Sexual assault / abuse
- The cycle of abuse
- Recognize and handle manipulative relationships
- Early relationship warning signs
- Games and manipulation
- And much more...
Once you learn how to use underhanded mind game manipulators, you will be able to free yourself from emotional abuse and control, and no one will ever be able to play with your sense of self-worth and emotional well-being!

Emotional manipulation is the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one's own emotions and those of others in a positive way. Today, we see that being "smart in the books" and having a high IQ does not guarantee a successful, happy, and fulfilled life. Many people around the world are very academically brilliant but are unable to deal with people and succeed at work or in their relationships. When it comes to happiness and success in life, emotional manipulation helps you build stronger relationships, succeed at work, and achieve your personal and professional goals.

It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer.

But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.
