The modern world, in which everyone is trying to sell something, is overwhelmed with pseudo-gurus, a wide variety of "psychologists" and just charlatans. Another adherent of this “cult” of mass information planting in the heads of immature young people was the Russian psychologist Mikhail Kozlov, who became famous for participating in the Dom-2 television project. This person gives public lectures on emancipation and “personal growth”, as he himself puts it, although many participants in his trainings would rather call it moral and moral degradation.
Psychologist make-believe
Mikhail Kozlov is a specific psychologist, you can put it that way.
“Specific” - such a term gently smooths the true picture. Mikhail Kozlov, a psychologist, author of numerous trainings, an expert in financial psychology, a participant in the Dom-2 television project, besides participating in the television project, was remembered by the press and law enforcement agencies in connection with his detention on the appeal of a Minsk girl named Anna. She participated in his motivating trainings, as she was looking for a source of inspiration for the next year. Prior to that, she already had experience attending personal growth trainings, and each time she brought out something useful from them. But this training went to her at the cost of psychological trauma, not to mention the 250 dollars paid for these dances with a tambourine for three days.
The psychologist Mikhail Kozlov, whose books and pamphlets scattered across Russian yards 10 years ago, quickly gained the trust of his fellow citizens. However, just as suddenly blunders in his activities unsettled his entire career in Russia. Then the entrepreneurial trainer of personal growth redirected his forces to the Belarusian platform.
Psychologist Mikhail Kozlov: biography
This man was also distinguished by the fact that there is not so much reliable information about him. During his free lectures, he manages to advertise himself and his training, choose the target audience and confidently wind her noodles over her ears. According to the information on his website, Mikhail Kozlov is a psychologist and a person with 4 higher educations! As well as a happy husband and father of the family (four children: one from the first marriage, three from the marriage with his Belarusian wife). But this is just an illusion. Rumor has it that psychologist Mikhail Kozlov and his wife have not lived together for a long time.
The personal site of this fraudster indicates that its owner has conducted more than 500 successful trainings in ten years, and the track record reads: an expert in business psychology on TVC, First Channel, NTV television, and a psychologist on the reality show Dom- 2 ". He even nominated for the post of president of the Russian Federation. It would seem that such a person should be trusted. But it was not there.
Complaints and allegations
On charges of fraud in July 2017, the Russian psychologist Mikhail Kozlov was detained in Minsk.
The story, even in the British edition of the Daily Mail, was nicknamed the "striptease incident." This action was a kind of revenge for Sberbank employees for the fact that for a whole month he could not get their corporate card. The injured psychologist Mikhail Kozlov showed up at the Moscow branch of the bank, accompanied by two strippers. He managed to shoot a provocative video, which pretty excited the
space of social networks.
In addition to this incident, this man was repeatedly accused of demoralizing society, organizing orgies and assaulting at his trainings.
The starting point, which served as the detention of this subject by law enforcement agencies, was the complaint of the resident of Minsk, Anna, who began to worry about her mental condition from the first lecture. The manipulator managed to get her payment for a three-day training in the amount of $ 250. This fact became known thanks to the husband of a desperate woman who immediately suspected something was wrong with his wife's behavior, followed her and led her out of the hall where the training took place.
Be stupid and decisive!
This is the motto of the trainings of the former participant of the reality show "Dom-2". The pseudo-psychologist Kozlov assures that spirituality leads to the decay of the individual, does not allow a person to rise above his capabilities and bypass stupid believers. For his trainings, he selects only a young audience of atheists, demonstratively expelling people of the age, male pick-up men and people with principles from the audience. The participants in his lectures, speaking about their impressions of his work, give far from flattering reviews.
Mikhail Kozlov: “House-2” did not turn him into a hero
Psychological trauma, depression, inappropriate behavior and a bunch of other unpleasant consequences are the results of his trainings on self-realization. As one of the former participants in his course writes in the reviews, she came to this event purely out of curiosity, and left there with deep psychological trauma, the resolution of which now will take years.
There were also numerous complaints that the psychologist Mikhail Kozlov behaved aggressively, violated their personal boundaries, called people to the stage, forced them to undress, humiliate themselves, and asked incriminating questions about their personal lives.
Ideology
In his lectures and trainings, Kozlov emphasizes the rejection of moral and ethical qualities. Psychologist Mikhail Kozlov willingly gives recommendations to young girls on arranging their lives, advising them to profitably sell their bodies, offer themselves for a “decent” payment, and this has led to suspicions of human trafficking. He calls short-sighted and miserable girls that they have sex with a man just like that, for love and for free. The following is said about Belarusian girls: “Belarus is characterized by an abundance of beautiful girls, of which a greater percentage are far from pragmatic. Such people are able to love sincerely and give themselves to a man without a trace ... But is it reasonable? They are also used sincerely by married women who are hungry for female affection on the side ". Some of the advice of psychologist Mikhail Kozlov really seems worthwhile, but this is just a grain in the endless stream of his destructive sayings.
Trainings
During his speeches, Kozlov vehemently insists that many people simply "suck barberry", that is, in his understanding, "earn little", living the life of a groundhog every day. This progressive thinker took people earning less than $ 500 to the 7th stage of the Kozlow success table, as he jokingly calls it, drawing an analogy with Maslow's needs table. The optimal location on this table, he considers the 4th level, that is, earnings from $ 50,000. It is this level, in his opinion, that can be considered comfortable and safe.
The three pillars on which Kozlow’s life is built are relationships, money, personal growth. Through harmonization of all these points, one can become happy and successful, says Mikhail, and this is hard to argue. Unlike his methods ...
Then you can hear that people in the world are divided into normal and abnormal, that only abnormal (leaders) can, without killing, stealing, climb up the Kozlow ladder and become successful. Such people, says the psychologist, are able to plan their lives for several years ahead, and then divide the large-scale plan into quarterly, monthly, and so on. Only by registering every step in the head, one can achieve perfection. Essential for Kozlov is the "positive" environment - that is, people with an already advanced level who motivate others to take action. He categorically denies the effect of visualization, calling it nonsense, since no one, as he put it, "has not yet earned an elite car by visualization."
The girl’s body, in the eyes of the psychologist Mikhail Kozlov, is a "credit card with an inexhaustible balance." He, unlike naive girls, knows where to find the oligarch and how to seduce him. Thus, he urges women to almost open prostitution, offering the only "sure" way to earn money - to sleep with a millionaire a couple of times a month. Well, the main thing here is "not to cheapen."
Working scheme
It all starts with a vivid review full of emotions, such as: “Enchanting training, I advise everyone, come immediately to the“ guest evening ”, it's free!” Already prepared by a psychologist, a group of people unknowingly takes his side, thereby attracting the masses to the training. And then according to the knurled pattern - entry, input of primary information at no cost, and then pairing the training at a fabulous price - 200-300 dollars for 3 days! Able to think, insolvent and old are immediately swept away at the first meeting. It can be seen that the eye is trained. He didn’t like it outwardly - please leave the audience, because you do not meet his standards. And, yes, you can’t be distracted. There is still an unwritten regulation of "forbidden actions", for example, the use of a mobile phone (a fine of 20 rubles - you somehow need to earn money).
Finally
Despite the cynical approach, swagger, “poking” to clients, unconventional personality transformation techniques, unjustified high cost of training, this psychologist gathered his army of admirers and money-grubbers who are happy to act “stupidly and decisively”, going through life through and through. And it doesn’t matter that along the way you can knock down a couple of goals, break a couple of hearts and put the bandwagon. What do these "groundhogs" understand in life when success is right there, right in your hands. Conscience, honor, spirituality - this is no longer self-development. Now this is called mental masturbation. Finance, egocentrism, success are the slogans of the new society. You decide.
