Welcome to the The Lie Detection Cheat Sheet.!
!
I realize this can be a touchy or even controversial topic.!
!
Listen, I’m a firm believer in the power of positive thinking, focusing
on the good things in life and seeing the glass half full rather than half
empty.!
!
That’s why most of the training programs that I create are focused
around attaining a positive result; whether it be getting a raise,
landing the perfect job or simply using your communication skills to
get better results in your business or personal life.!
!
Yet detecting lies from other people doesn’t really feel like such a
“positive” thing to be doing or talking about.!
!
But here’s the deal.!
!
My life’s work has been centered around human communication and
how it can be used to improve one’s life.!
!
And human communication involves many facets.!
!
Unfortunately one of those facets is deception and lying. And it’s a big
one at that.!
!
The truth is if you really want to master communication then this is an
area that not only has to be addressed but you need to be trained in
how to maneuver in situations when someone is lying to you.!
!
Now you may think that what I’m saying is true but might not be
worth focusing on simply because this doesn’t happen too often.!
!
Well statistically speaking the average person is lied to over 200 times
a day.!
!
So you better believe it’s worth focusing on.!
!
So what I want to share with you here is a cheat sheet that includes
some basic key indicators that someone is lying to you.!
!
KEY INDICATORS!
!
1.! Answers that seem off !
! Let's say your son is going out one night and he tells you he's
sleeping over his friend's house. You know there's a party going on,
that he's never slept over this friend's house before and that the kid
isn't even a good friend. Your son's answer seems a little off. !
!
2.! Brain scramble!
! Good liars distort reality by doing something called gaslighting.
This term comes from a 1944 movie called Gaslight where an abusive
husband would flicker the gas light on and off to appear as a ghost—
in order to steal jewels from his wife. A gaslighter can so thoroughly
lie that you begin to question your own beliefs. !
!
! Gaslighters use very strategic and direct statements. They'll tell
you you're crazy or you're paranoid. They'll say things like, "I can't
believe you would even suspect me of doing something like this. I
can't believe that thought would even cross your mind. You must be
the crazy one." !
!
! Gaslighters scramble your thought process to an extent that you
begin questioning your own sanity. This is a crucial key indicator of
deception—when someone is going out of their way to scramble your
brain by using the gaslighting technique to make you question
everything you're starting to believe is true.!

!
3.! Intuition!
! Another one is good, old-fashioned intuition. Fear is a basic
instinct, and oftentimes we begin to suspect things even when we
don't have any evidence, proof or reason to experience that suspicion
or feel that fear. There is a scientific explanation for that. Your brain is
subconsciously registering that suspicion or fear of danger before it
has reached your conscious mind. That's why you begin to have
feelings you can't logically explain. !
!
! The psychological term for this is thin slices. The brain detects
details faster than your conscious awareness can pick them up.
Researchers have found that in some cases, it's as fast as 1/25 of one
second. Within that 1/25 of one second is a thin slice where your
subconscious mind picks up on something but your conscious mind
hasn't registered what that is. You can't logically justify the reason
why you feel it. !
!
!
4.! Succumbing to charisma!
! Effective liars are also very good manipulators, and that means
they can be very charismatic—but that charisma is usually being
practiced with bad intentions. They're doing it because they plan on
manipulating you at some point.!
!
5.! Manipulation!
! Manipulation is very closely tied to deception and it's very
important that we talk about it.!
!
There are [five] stages a master manipulator takes when planning to
manipulate someone. Now, sometimes they're aware of these stages,
and sometimes it comes so naturally to them that they navigate
through these stages without even consciously realizing it. !
!
a.! Identify a victim!
! A master manipulator identifies someone they believe is
relatively easy to deceive, because the person is easier to manipulate.
This person probably lacks confidence and seems vulnerable or weak. !
!
b.! Gather intelligence!
! The manipulator learns as much as they possibly can about the
victim. What do they like? What are their needs? Their fears? They're
going to utilize that information to their advantage.!
!
c.! Give the victim what they want!
! After the manipulator has gathered intelligence about their
victim (knows what they like, what they don't like, their needs and
their fears) the manipulator will now feed the victim what they want
and need. They do this to make themselves appear positively in the
eyes of the victim.!
!
d.! Isolation!
! The manipulator begins to move the victim away from other
people. They might take the victim on a trip. They might use terms
like, "We're in this together," or "I've never felt this with anyone else. I
seem to click with you better than with anyone else. You and I are on
the same level." The manipulator physically and mentally begins to
isolate the victim. !
!
e.! Blackmail!
! This is the last stage. Typically they share a secret with the victim
that, if anyone knew, could hurt both of them. Then they begin to
blackmail the victim by demanding things. It could be money or
resources or sex. They extort the victim by threatening to disclose that
secret. That's how a master manipulator navigates their way into a
position of manipulation. !
!
Congratulations!!

You now know what key indicators to look for when detecting
deception.!
!
The next step is to ensure that these indicators are correct.!
!
Remember, an indicator is not valid, hard proof. !
!
It is simply an indication that someone is lying to you.!
