False Assent

« Back to Glossary Index

A Tactic to Avoid Change. This is saying yes without really meaning it. I may use this to cut short a discussion or gain points. By assenting, I can mislead others into believing progress has been made, but I do not apply or practice the concepts in my daily living. Agreeing to a point and being guided by are not the same thing. The only way to tell genuine from tactical agreement is to observe me over time. If the assent is a deliberate tactic to gain points, this will be evident when observing the behaviors over time.
