Most of TRP advices are for women.

But among men, I find most of the principles apply there as well.

Agree and amplify, Repeat, Exit - To name few of them.

So, I went ahead and have been trying rewarding for good behavior and punishing for bad behavior among men as well.

More often than not, it works just fine. But sometimes it backfires badly. Last week, I lost a good friendship just because i subtly punished him for something i didn't like. Not that I care as I don't want people who give bad time to me.

But is this something i should continue?

I am really looking to become more dominant. Any advices and insights are welcome.

Thank you
