Never Be Lied to Again:How to Get the Truth Out of Anyone!Part 1: How to Tell If You Are Being Lied toBy David J. Lieberman, Ph.D.Excerpts from "Never Be Lied to Again"expression comes after the verbal statement (“I am so angrywith you right now” pause and then the angry expression), it looks false. The head moves in a mechanical fashion without regard toemphasis, indicating a conscious movement.In an ideal society there would be no need for lies. But welive in a world of deception. And whether you want to play ornot, you’re in the game. The question is, do you want to win?Once you realize that you’re being lied to, should you confront the liar immediately? Usually not. The best approach isto note the fact in your mind and continue with the conversation, trying to extract more information.Once you confront someone who has lied to you, the tone ofthe conversation changes and gathering additional facts becomes difficult. Therefore, wait until you have all the evidenceyou want and then decide whether to confront the person atthat time or hold off to figure how you can best use this insightto your advantage.How to Tell If You Are Being Lied ToBody Language The person will make little or no eye contact. A person whois lying to you will do everything to avoid making eye contact. Physical expression will be limited, with few arm and handmovements. What arm and hand movements are present willseem stiff, and mechanical. Hands, arm and legs pull in toward the body; the individual takes up less space. His hand(s) may go up to his face or throat, especially tothe mouth. But contact with his body is limited to these areas.He is also unlikely to touch his chest with an open hand gesture. He may also touch the nose or scratch behind the ear. If he is trying to appear casual and relaxed about his answer, he may shrug a little.Emotional States: Consistency and Contradiction The timing is off between gestures and words. If the facial Gestures don’t match the verbal message, such as frowningwhen saying “I love you.” Hands tightly clenched and a statement of pleasure are not in sync with each other. The timing and duration of emotional gestures will seem off.The emotion is delayed coming on, stays longer than itshould, and fades out abruptly. Expression will be limited to the mouth area when the person is feigning certain emotions – happiness, surprise, awe,and so on – rather than the whole face.Interpersonal InteractionsWhen we are wrongfully accused, only a guilty person getsdefensive. Someone who is innocent will usually go on theoffensive. He is reluctant to face his accuser and may turn his heador shift his body away. The person who is lying will probably slouch; he is unlikelyto stand tall with his arms out or outstretched. There’s movement away from his accuser, possibly in thedirection of the exit.

There will be little or no physical contact during his attempt to convince you. He will not point his finger at the person he is trying to convince. He may place physical objects (pillow,drinking glass, et cetera) between himself and his accuser to form a barrier,with a verbal equivalent of “I don’t wantto talk about it,” indicating deception orcovert intention.What Is Said: Actual Verbal Content He will use your words to make hispoint. When asked, “Did you cheat onme?” The liar answers, “No, I didn’tcheat on you.” In addition, when a suspect uses a contraction – “It wasn’t me”instead of “It was not me” – statistically,there is a 60% chance he is truthful. He may stonewall, giving an impression that his mind is made up. This isoften an attempt to limit your challengesto his position. If someone says right upfront that he positively won’t budge, itmeans one thing: He knows he can beswayed. He needs to tell you this so youwon’t ask, because he knows he’ll cavein. The confident person will usephrases like “I’m sorry, this is prettymuch the best we can do.” Watch out for the good old Freudianslip. He depersonalizes his answer by offering his belief on the subject insteadof answering directly. A liar offers abstract assurances as evidence of his innocence in a specific instance.Example: “Did you ever cheat on me?”and you hear, “You know I’m againstthat sort of thing. I think it morally reprehensible.” He will keep adding more informationuntil he’s sure that he has sold you onhis story. The guilty are uncomfortablewith silence. He speaks to fill the gapleft by the silence. He may imply an answer but neverstate it directly.How Something Is Said Deceitful response to questions regarding beliefs and attitudes take longerto think up. However, how fast does therest of the sentence follow the initialone-word response? In truthful statements a fast no or yes is followedquickly by an explanation. If the personis being deceitful the rest of the sentence may come more slowly becausehe needs time to think up an explanation. Watch out for reactions that are all outof proportion to the question. May repeat points that he has already made.May also be reluctant to use words thatconvey attachment and ownership orpossessiveness (“that car” as opposedto “my car”). The person who is lying may leave outpronouns and speak in a monotonousand inexpressive voice. When a personis making a truthful statement, he emphasizes the pronoun as much as ormore than the rest of the sentence. Words may be garbled and spokensoftly, and syntax and grammar may beoff. In other words, his sentences willlikely be muddled rather than empha-sized. Statements sound an awful lot likequestions, indicating that he’s seekingreassurance. Voice, head and eyes liftat the end of their statement.Psychological Profile We often see the world as a reflectionof ourselves. If you’re being accused ofsomething, check your accuser’s veracity. Watch out for those people who arealways telling you just how corrupt therest of the world is. Beware of thoseasking you if you believe him. They mayrespond with, “you don’t believe me, doyou?” Most people who tell the truth expect to be believed. Look at whether his focus is internal orexternal. When a person is confidentabout what he’s saying, he’s more interested in your understanding him andless interested in how he appears toyou. In a liar’s story, he will usually not givethe point of view of a third party. To illustrate giving a point of view of someone else, “My roommate was soshocked that I would ”

In relating a story, a liar often leavesout the negative aspects (unless thestory is used to explain way he was delayed or had to cancel plans). The storyof a vacation, for example, should haveboth positive and negative aspects ofwhat happened. A liar willingly answers your questionsbut asks none of his own. For example,during their first intimate encounter,Randy asks his new girlfriend if she’sever been tested for AIDS. She responds with “Oh, yes, certainly,” andcontinues on a bit about annual checkups, giving blood, etc. And then nothing!If she was concerned about her health,as her answer implied, then she wouldhave asked him the same question. Theliar is often unaware that coming acrossas truthful means both answering andasking questions.General Indications of Deceit Whenthe subjectischanged,he’s in abetter,more rel a x e dmood.The guiltywants thesubjectchanged;the innocent always wants a further exchange of information. He does not become indignant whenfalsely accused. While he is being accused the liar will remain fairly expressionless. The liar is more concernedwith how he is going to respond than heis with the accusation itself. He uses such phrases as “To tell youthe truth,” “To be perfectly honest,” and“Why would I lie to you?” He has an answer to your questiondown pat, such as giving precise detailto an event occurring two months ago. He stalls by asking you to repeat thequestion or by answering your questionwith a question. “Where did you hearthat?” “Could you be more specific?” oreven repeating your question back toyou, at an attempt at sounding incredulous. For example, “Did I sell you apuppy with a heart condition? Is thatwhat you’re asking me?” What he’s saying sounds implausible,such as “During the past ten years, Ihave never used a specific racial epithet.” He offers a preamble to his statementstarting with “I don’t want you to thinkthat ” Often that’s exactly what hewants you to think. Whenever someonemakes a point of telling you what they’renot doing, you can be sure it’s exactlywhat they are doing. Such as, “Not tohurt your feelings, but ” He implies through a form of denial.You hear, “He’s having marital problems, but it has nothing to do with hiswife’s new job.” What’s the first thingyou ask? “What does his wife do?” Suddenly you’re in the exact conversationthat is “supposed” to have no bearingon the facts. He uses humor or sarcasm to defuseyour concerns, rather than respondingseriously. He offers you a “better” alternative toyour request when he is unable to giveyou what you originally asked for. Before you accept someone at his wordthat he has something better to offer,first see whether he has what you originally asked for. If he doesn’t, then youshouldn’t believe him. All of his facts relating to numbers arethe same or multiples of one another.Watch out when facts, figures, and information have unusual similarities. There is evidence of involuntary responses that are anxiety based. Anxietycauses many things. His breather mayappear as a deep, audible inhaling in anattempt to control his breathing to calmhimself. Swallowing becomes difficult;he may clear his throat. His ability tofocus on something is often diminished,unable to pay attention to what’s goingon. He uses an obvious fact to support adubious action. For example, let’s saythat a guard is standing watch over a restricted area. It’s his job to check ID’s ofthose who enter. “I’m not sure you haveauthorization,” he says to a man attempting access. “I’m not surprised,”answered the man, “only a few peopleare aware of my clearance level. Mywork here is not supposed to be knownby everyone.” He casually tells you something thatdeserves more attention.

He exclaims his displeasure at the ac-tions of another who has done something similar so that you will not suspecthim. For instance, if he is trying to throwyou off track of his embezzlementscheme, he may openly chastise another employee for “borrowing” someoffice supplies for personal use athome. Your impression is that he ismoral person who objects to somethingas minor as stealing office supplies.Certainly he cannot be responsible fora large-scale embezzlement scheme. He may casually tell you somethingthat should deserve more attention. “Ohby the way, I’ve got to go out of townnext weekend on business.” If he doesn’t usually travel for work on the weekends, then you would expect her tomake a point of how unusual the trip is.Her downplaying the trip makes it suspicious. When something out of the ordinary happens and the person doesn’tdraw attention to it, it means that he istrying to draw attention away from it.Another tactic is running off a long listof items in the hope that one will remainunnoticed. If he lies about one thing, everythinghe says is questionable. His story is so wild that you almostdon’t believe it. But you do, because ifhe wanted to lie, you think that he wouldhave come up with something moreplausible.This article is an excerpt from "NeverBe Lied to Again," available in the Underground Hypnosis package availableat here: "Learn the Underground Hypnosis Secrets of the World's Most Dangerous Hypnosists"School security guardinspires students withcoloring bookBRIDGEPORT -- Positive thoughts popinto Harry A. Bell's head all the time.Sayings like: "A fresh start will helpbegin a great day;" or "Do not let a let-down keep you down" just seem to popinto his brain.Bell, 29, used to jot down these motivational ditties and dream about puttingthem on coffee mugs.Then his son, Sa-Nahj Bell, gave him abetter idea.Bell, who works as a security guard 32hours a week at the University ofBridgeport and 40 hours at James J.Curiale School, created a coloring book.The book, "Color a Positive Thought,"has now become a big hit at the Curialeschool. Principal Brett Gustafson usedabout 1,000 in discretionary funds thisfall to buy 250 copies, enough for all thechildren in grades two through four atthe school."I looked at it and said Whoa, this issome good stuff," Gustafson said. "Thisfit in perfectly."The Curiale school is in its third year inthe state Commissioner's Network,which focuses extra funds and oversight on the most troubled schools. Aspart of the network, one of Curiale'sgoals has been to change student behaviors. Gustafson said he is always onthe hunt for incentives that carry positive messages and remind students "It'snot where you start but where you finish."WAVE Safety & Security NewsProduced by theSecurity DepartmentLong Branch Public Schools540 BroadwayLong Branch, NJ 07740732-571-2868Walter J.

Bell's book is full of such messages. Hecreated scenes with big-eyed schoolchildren doing things like reading in onepanel and then showing off an A gradein the next."I just wanted kids to see positives inlife," Bell said.He loved the reaction in teacher AmyGress's second grade class when theyreceived the books days beforeThanksgiving."You did this?" Tatiana Garner, 7,asked, before giving Bell a hug.Bell said students at the school keephim on his feet but, he said, the perception the outside world has of Curialestudents is totally wrong."I'd love to start an empowerment program to help them," he said.Born and raised in Bridgeport, Bell'sown start was pretty difficult. His mom,addicted to drugs, left him at the hospital a birth. An aunt, Marvetta Bell, cameto collect him and raised him until hewas 18. In the third grade, thingsstarted to look up. He got a mentor -Howard Owen Jr. -- who treated him likefamily. He remains close to this day.He also had a cousin, Tonahja Cohen,who had a barber shop and gave him ajob sweeping up hair from the age ofeight.his barbering skills."When you shape up, you got to havehair lines and angle on points," he said."With sketching you are just sketchingout points and circles."Still, the sketching and sayings didn'tcome together until Sa-Nahj was born."My son was the inspiration," Bell said."I went to the store looking for coloringbooks that would empower him. I evenlooked it up on Google and couldn't findnothing."He went back to his sketches and decided to put them together. Friends EdHernandez and Solomon Stanley,helped him translate his sketches ontothe computer. He self-published thebook.An early draft of the book, completedthis summer, had his son's face on thecover. The finished product features astring of children holding hands, and 12pages to color.In three months, he has sold about 400copies and held a book signing at theSono Library in Norwalk.
