Francis Bacon said that knowledge is power. And he's definitely right about this one. By arming yourself with information or by just being aware of psychological manipulation, you are already protecting yourself!

How else can you solve a problem if you don't even know there is one to begin with? Honestly, just being where you are right now and reading this article already sends you three or four steps ahead of your problem!

Stick to Your Guns

This really isn't the easiest thing in the world to do. Sometimes, you just can't help but be swayed by other people. However, know that once you resist the urge to follow someone else's lead, it will all be worth it.

You will get the feeling of overcoming something huge and you'll even see yourself in a new light, which in turn, will only serve to empower you more. This isn't the same as being highly stubborn, mind you.

Build Yourself Up

Targets of psychological manipulation are oftentimes those who do not really have a lot of confidence in themselves.

If you have much insecurity, other people will just try to use your lack of self-confidence to control you.

For example, if you're someone who cares a lot about your appearance, another person can easily say something to trigger a reaction from you.

In order to prevent being victimized by such tactics, make sure you're comfortable with who you are. Look for all your good points instead of dwelling on your not-so-good characteristics. Be grateful for all the great things happening in your life.

Don't let psychological manipulation get to you. Moving to a new school or leaving your job isn't the solution to your problem. Running away won't help you get anywhere. All you get is a change of environment but not a change of mindset. Just remember to be alert on your toes, be firm with your decisions and believe in yourself!

Names such as: Twos, Giver, Caretaker, Helper, Nurturer, or Advisor, are commonly used to decribed the Temperaments Types. We use numbers instead of any names.

We use numbers to designate each of the Temperament Types because numbers are value neutral. They imply the whole range of attitudes and behaviors of each Temperament without specifying anything either positive or negative.

The numerical ranking of the Types is not significant. A larger number is no better than a smaller number.

No Temperament Type is inherently better or worse than any other. While all the Temperament Types have unique assets and liabilities, some Types are often more desirable than others in our society. You may not be happy with your particular Type. You may feel that your Type is “limited" in some way. As you learn more about all the Types, you will see that just as each has unique capacities, each has different “limits.”

People do not change from one basic Temperament Type to another. Some Types are more valued in our society than others; it is because of the qualities that society rewards, not because of any superior value of those Types.

The descriptions of the Temperament Types apply equally to males and females, since no Type is inherently masculine or feminine. Not everything in the description of your basic Type will apply to you all the time because you fluctuate constantly.

Why aren’t all people with a given Temperament Type successful?

You probably know a bunch of people with the same Temperament Type. Why are some successful and others are not. Why the difference? The difference is Emotional Intelligence. We use Emotional Quotient. (EQ) as a shorthand to describe Emotional Intelligence.

A person may have a high IQ. They did well in school, maybe have a college diploma or even an advanced degree. They may even be in MENSA, the select high-IQ club and still fail in business and relationships. Why are they not successful?

The answer:

Your IQ determines 20 % of your success, which leaves 80% to other forces. This is stated by Daniel Goleman the Author of “Emotional Intelligence.”

A person with a high IQ does not mean they know how to manage their thoughts and feelings any more successfully than a person with a low IQ. Success requires taking the emotional data, making sense of that data, and integrating it into your decision-making. People with higher EQ does this better.

By increasing your EQ you can use your thoughts and emotions of your Temperament Type to make the best possible decisions. Increased EQ help you get optimal results from your relationships with yourself and others.

EQ challenges the conventional belief that emotions are in the way of good decisions. By increasing your EQ it is possible to learn how to use your emotions to make better decisions. By increasing your EQ, it is possible to increase your wisdom and energy required for high performance. The Increasing your EQ is a teachable life skill. If people get better at these life skills, everyone benefits: The brain doesn't distinguish between being a more empathetic manager and a more empathetic father
