Though it took a little longer than expected, here is the second part of the article by LG.

The Illusion Of Power

For the first example of the bully, yes you are indeed out alpha-ing him but it’s in a smarter less obvious way. You see with the The Illusion of Power it doesn’t have to stop there, you can keep applying it and possibly turn him into a wing and bring him into your world. I realize that this is a tough concept to understand because this “IOP (Illusion of power)” can be looked at from many different angles and its meaning can go very deep. To help everyone understand the IOP I will give a few more examples.

In the first example it just so happened that you would need to out alpha the bully in order to neutralize him, but to show more meaning to the IOP, let me explain how you would turn that bully into a friend or wingman. Once you give him a few pointers or even introduce him to one of your girls and he gets a taste of success, ask HIM for advice. Mention that you had a chat with a few of your girls and they all were talking about how they found his (the bully) macho personality attractive and that’s one aspect that your lacking on with women….EVEN THOUGH you may know the answers to what you are asking, it’s okay, that’s the point of all this, it’s to give him the IOP and make him think that he’s better than you, when really he’s not.

Let me explain another example of IOP from a work stand point. Let’s say a Co-Worker is trying to get you fired because he or she may want more hours at work, or the two of you don’t see eye to eye. Most people would get frustrated and let emotions get to them and cause them to make a scene and get themselves in trouble. Now what if instead of freaking out or cracking under pressure, you give that Co-worker that Illusion of Power over you by letting him take credit for a small portion of your work. Depending what you do for work this can change, so for this example let’s say you work at a restaurant, tell your Co-worker that they’ve worked hard and deserve some time to relax so you offer up your garbage duty to them so they can have a bit of a break from the kitchen, in that time they are gone you can now either talk with your boss about more shifts or asking your boss if there’s anything they need to be done to make their day easier. This will build a stronger connection between you and your boss if you can show them that they can count on you. Let’s say your Co-worker rejects your offer, simply just start build a connection with your boss by doing more favors or extra work for them. Say you start to move up in the company, put in a few good words for your co-worker that you didn’t see eye-to-eye with. Remember, this isn’t to get back at others, its to make your life better and helping others along the way. This is a very basic example but once you understand the IOP you can make it work for you in any situation.

The Illusion Of Power can also be used when interacting with your target. How you may ask? Well you can simply tell the girl you are gaming that you can tell that she is a tough, strong minded woman and any guy underestimating her is a fool. You are in a sense building up her ego and making her feel special or better than others (IOP), but you still hold all the cards in this situation. As you all know women think with emotions more than men, so in a way … you’re controlling what emotions she is going to feel which makes you the one with the power in this interaction. You see we are all in control of our lives; we have to be the ones that direct where things go and how everything will play out.

There is a small aspect from the IOP that you must be careful about, by always feeling in control of how your life will play out the sense of power you may have might get to your head if you have the wrong intentions, and you yourself will have a false IOP. Which will cause more harm than good, remember this is a mind set, to have a strong inner game you must understand how valuable life is and what the world has to offer and see the IOP as a way to bring more positivity into your life.

If you can give someone the illusion that they have power over you, when in reality they don’t, then it is YOU who has the real power to control how your life will play out and how others will fit into your world.

I don’t want people to see this as a technique to manipulate others, but as a way to take negativity away from your life and transform it positive growth for you and others.

I break down the Illusion Of Power more if it is still confusing. I hope that this post can help you understand a different perspective of life.

A nice breakdown on how to use this. I’m still at the start with it, but when I put it to work, I can see others having the IOP. Sometimes it makes me look a bit silly, but I get the things I want out of it. Just a little more practice should overcome this and I know that everyone can use this.
