We live in a society where we are influenced by others, given the interconnection between our values and goals. However, when this process occurs without our will and is hidden under the masque of “good” intentions — it’s called a manipulation. No one is immune to it.
Once manipulated, people tend to blame others for their own weaknesses and pass the responsibility on to others. Nonetheless, there is no progress in blame-game reactions! You cannot alter manipulators with this, but one thing you can do is manage your reaction. If you don’t want to become a victim of the other person’s game, it’s important to resist manipulation. There are two options that you may implement — passive self-defense and active self-protection.
During this lesson, you will learn how to strengthen your immunity against manipulators and select which option works better when addressing manipulation.
