I vs You

Postby JadynMC » April 6th, 2008, 12:08 am

Is there a big difference when using I versus you?
For example:
You want to be a slave.
versus
I want to be a slave.

One is being told and the other will slowly get the person to think what they are hearing. Do you think that there is a major difference with progress. Or even "I want you to be a slave, do you know that you might like being a slave" That's I guess a little more nlp than hypnosis. it comes down to there are files that repeat themselves over and over that use I, trying to get it installed into their brain and then there are ones that are actually hypnosis and they use you.

Is there a percentage difference on what works, or for who.

Well if its a mantra then you want them to say "I". Since I tend to repeat words I hear in my head I kind of prefer "I", depending on the file.

Using neither can be useful too. Mentioning someone else can be very effective.Milton Erickson used to use the third person or even saying "Some people" in some of his work.

e.g."A friend of mine knew they loved their partner. And wanted to show their partner how much they loved them. She realised that becoming his slave would be the ultimate way to show him her love."
This is a very shitty quick example so dont quote me,but that sort of idea though.

The person listening can relate to that person,which can make the change in them. That is more the theraputic use of hypnosis though.I dont know how it would work with erotic hypnosis and slave files.

It's funny you say that -- I always thought this was wierd about me but recently found out alot of people refer to themselves in the 2nd person (in their mind). When I'm thinking, I almost always refer to myself mentally as 'you' or 'we'.

It depends.

If you think about yourself objectively, then "you" would probably be a more effective pronoun. If you think about yourself subjectively, then "I" would probably serve you better.
