How much charisma do you think do you have or it takes to have followers?

Question

Like, for example, you've been revered like a monk, and your followers will do anything you wish, like tell them to jump out of the window...and they will oblige...

Well, things like that, you know.

Answer 1

some are into religion to get rich.  they fool the people into giving money to charities that have them or their family members as ceo with humongous salaries and perks.  some get away with it but others don't.  glib talkers are very good into this.

Answer 2

It's not about how much you got. It's either you got it or you don't. You must not have it since your asking this question.

Answer 3

Ninoy Aquino was a very charismatic person and he had a lot of followers.  But they didn't die for him instead he died for them.  It took his death to move them to act...much much later.

Answer 4

well to make people jump out of windows a lot.  

Answer 5

You have a weird example, jumping out the window for what purpose? Death? I don't think a true monk can order someone to jump out of the window and take pleasure on someone's death by obedience. Anyway, for me, achievement equals charisma and that makes a great leader, a politician. People born with certain flair and charisma are often in influential positions and are not necessarily liked, i.e. Hitler, Bush. I prefer gaining more social skills and become a personable person than developing charisma.

Answer 6

i don't know, but i have a bunch of men who readily get down on their knees in my presence.  i flash them my vajj and they all go apesh*t.  it's really not fun being a celebrity.

Answer 7

Reminds me of the Matarese Circle, by Robert Lodlum, if I spelled the name right.   Or any of his books.  There is made mention of a certain charismatic leader in the Middle East, who started this fad where his followers would have all the hashish, the girls, all the worldly pleasures they seek - and in return, they turn to assassins, and do their master's bidding even at the cost of their very lives.

As you can glean from above data, it is not all charisma.  There is material reward.  And the promise of heaven, afterwards.

In the Philippines, we have these cults aplenty.   And sad to say, a more recent event exposed their leader to be taking drugs himself.  I believe his influence over that island province is still strong, and his sister is a top government official, but still defer to his wishes, while he languishes in jail.

Answer 8

I can't count it anymore

Answer 9

people with charisma are born with it. It is written in their hands, the time of their birth, and the extent of how strong  or weak their rival or supporters would be.There is a right time for everything

Answer 10

A lot.
