Q. Psychology question. People often write content, say things, or even whisper around you to manipulate you to do something. How do you avoid not getting influenced by other people? Like how do you ignore their said things to you (be it for buying crypto, or living life or even making choice?)? How do you ignore what people do, say effectively?

Sort:  

I'm not sure its possible to not get influenced by others. Hopefully we pick the right ones to be influenced by and that influence helps up progress in life. !BEER

Perhaps the best we can do is question the motives of the influencer. What does the influencer have to gain? They don't influence to lose.

BTW-- it's OK for influencers to influence for gain as long as we gain as well. Sooner or later, each of us is an influencer in some way or in some context.

When we are a risk for a loss is the time to question the influencer.

You have some idea of what you want to accomplish as a cryptocurrency holder:

  • Did you want to buy and hold for a decent amount of time?
  • Did you want to make a quick strike buy buying crypto low to turn around as soon as it went 2x, 10x, 100x, etc. ?

Keep in mind your goals as you read content from people here as well as from other sources. As long as you DYOR you will be fine. If it feels as is someone is pressuring you to buy/sell-- or even if someone is trying to nudge you to buy or sell-- that's a red flag to notice.

The above is for crypto, but it could be expanded to broader situations or to other aspects of life. With corporate media and legacy media being what they are these days worldwide, you need to compare what they say with your experience and what you have learned in life. If you have other sources of information you trust, compare what establishment media says with your information sources. Also compare what people you know say with your trusted information sources.

In the end, it's a 3-word sentence: Trust, but verify.

Trust, but verify.

This is applicable everywhere in life. You just can't get excited about what someone said and react to it unless you are confident about it. After all it's your decision and you know best how it would impact your life. Your research and insights are the most important becuase without it you will never be sure of what you do. Somebody's research might be from their perspective so you gotta watch out.

I think you answered your question on your own - it's all about psychology. You need to govern your mind in a fashion that it should hear and pay heed to only those things that matter. Others should pe passed by as if never seen or heard. There will be people around us all the time saying things we won't like and appreciate. If we keep answering all of them, imagine the amount of time we end up wasting.

It's best to just ignore such people as if they are nothing and continue your life like nothing happened.

I have discovered trying to ignore such people tend to be difficult but one just have to do it..

Sorry, out of BEER, please retry later...

Sorry, out of BEER, please retry later...

Oh yeah of course i do not have the beer token,i just want to know about it

I try to leave the environment where they are or find a way to avoid interacting with them


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Both options are perfectly valid, especially if it's a social situation. It can be don at work, but it's harder. With family, it's even more difficult to do, but it can be done there, too.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Well nice psychological question as you may call it but getting to ignore people who do not share interest in same thing with you actually depends on how you handle there issues.

Well I'm not someone that follows what people say or pay attention to unnecessary topic rather I prefer generating my our findings,

So by doing that I won't be influenced to do what they do so I make my own choice and live them with no option but to go by my will.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

you can decided to ignore what people are saying if you choose not to give respond OR work with their advice .

sometime is good to be yourself just to remain focus and it this will definitely bring more confident to you and also believing in yourself


Posted via proofofbrain.io

The answer to this question quite appear to be an easy. You simply don't give in the manipulation of others and do what's best for you. Because at the end of the day if you chose to get influenced by them, whatever outcome you get alone get the resultant effect whether good or bad
