The Power of Pausing in Conversation

Politicians use this simple technique to easily control and influence crowds. You can do it too.

Here's the secret. After you say something valuable to your listener, pause for a moment

and give them time to think. Did you notice what I just did there? This simple pause

makes your message more valuable because it sticks in their brain for a while, leading their subconscious

to think it's important. The silence creates anticipation and forces people to process what you

just said instead of rushing to the next point. Try it in your next conversation and

watch how people lean in closer waiting for what comes next.
