Influence is not just about leading—it’s about refusing to be led by emotions orchestrated by others. Emotional manipulators thrive on your reactions. Disrupt their play by refusing to dance to their tune.
When they tug at your emotional strings, pause. This interval is your sanctuary, where you regain control.
The ability to respond without being emotionally ensnared is true mastery.
Influence bows to those who defy the puppet strings of emotional manipulation.
