Why & What

Get people to ask why and you’ll get them interested…

So in a case of reverse psychology that I think may work… reframe the approach to how you get someone interested. let them know it’s not for them, that they are excluded, you won’t get everyone but you will get the attention of those passing by.

Examples
Signs in big print stating THIS IS NOT FOR YOU – leave it ambiguous, that’ll prompt the person to ask WHAT IS NOT FOR ME, thinking that they are the ones who have to decide what is and isn’t for them.

I say this because I was thinking about that book I bought Insight and one of the things she says is that people are generally in a ask WHY mode vs an ask WHAT mode… humans have a tendency to ask WHY vs WHAT.

So when you get a person to frame their response/reaction in a WHY format… the sign would prompt them to react in a WHY manner, asking WHY is this place NOT FOR ME. It raises the defense mechanism, focusing our attention to this now. You are being manipulated.

Discourse is the only means of being able to communicate with one another. Assuming one person knows things that you know is not realistic. Spam will be deleted, fallacious messages will be pointed out as such, and educating the reader is not the objective.
