Won't work in all relationships de3. In some you'll give 80 and get 20. But then the 20 is their absolute best. Thing is it's hard to tell if what you're getting is their best.
It's always easy for us to judge our actions by our intentions but for others we flip it.
IShowSpeed ran into a Chinese fan during his World Cup livestream, but the fan’s English was "very bad."
Suddenly, Speed switched to Chinese: "冷静,我说中文。请给我的直播加油!" (Calm, I speak Chinese. Plz cheer for my stream!)

The most manipulative but effective thing I’ve ever done in my life was when I read an article about how children moderate their behavior to protect their self-identity, so if a child believes he’s smart, for example, he’ll intentionally study and try to do well to protect his image of himself.
Anyway, I would pull kids aside with behavioral issues at church and tell them, “David (obviously fake name), you’re such a kind person and such a good listener. I can see that in you. Thank you for always listening.” “Little Annie, thank you for taking such good care of the babies around you. You’re going to be such a good big sister. Can you be in charge of watching Sally?”
They would ALWAYS behave afterward. ALWAYS. Worked like a charm. Morally questionable because it wasn’t initially true, but I kind of willed it into existence. Tbf, I did think that they had that in them or I wouldn’t have tried.
Will publish longitudinal results of this method once my kid is old enough to report back.
