Moment 117 - The Unexpected Power Of Seduction: Robert Greene

This podcast episode explores the concept of seduction as a form of influence. The author argues that seduction is a high form of power because it allows one to make people feel pleasure, excitement, or interest, thereby lowering their resistance to ideas and making it possible to influence them. The author discusses the key attributes of a successful seducer, such as being outer-directed, vulnerable, and open to the influence of others, and contrasts these with the qualities of an anti-seducer, such as preaching, moralizing, and self-absorption. The author concludes by discussing the importance of embracing vulnerability in order to be successful at seduction.
