ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE:
What if the future of marriage, culture, and even politics could be predicted by a single timeless law of human behavior — the 80/20 rule?
In Daily Persuasion with Joshua Lisec Ep. 291: “Throuples, Triads, & the 80/20 Rule: Predicting the Future,” Lisec reveals how the 80/20 rule — also known as the Pareto principle — explains everything from why certain relationships dominate social media to how laws about throuples and triads will inevitably change in the decades ahead. If you’ve ever wondered how persuasion psychology ties into cultural shifts like open closed relationships or the rise of the polycule, this is the episode you can’t miss.
Lisec begins by laying out the fractal distribution of the 80/20 principle. We’ve all heard the idea: 80% of outcomes are driven by 20% of inputs. But Lisec demonstrates how this pattern repeats at every level — in business, sports, politics, and especially 80/20 rule relationships. For example, in a basketball team, 80% of the points are often scored by just 20% of the players. The same logic applies to couples, families, and even unconventional arrangements like throuples and triads, where a minority of influencers drive the majority of cultural attention.
What does this mean for Predicting the Future? Lisec shows that if you track which 20% of content creators produce 80% of viral relationship discourse, you can forecast the normalization of open closed relationships and polycules. Back in 2018, Lisec predicted that laws surrounding polygamy, polyamory, and alternative unions would shift by the late 2030s. Why?
Because the 80/20 rule Pareto principle already showed that a small group of unconventional couples were producing outsized cultural influence. That influence, over time, translates into policy change — just as it has with past social movements.
Throughout this episode, Lisec connects these insights to persuasion techniques and persuasive techniques used throughout history. He asks: if you want to know how to persuade someone to do something, what can you learn from the way unconventional relationships gain traction online? By studying persuasion examples in culture, politics, and even examples of persuasion in advertising, Lisec explains why the minority can often redirect the majority. It’s not about shouting the loudest — it’s about applying the techniques of persuasion in writing, speech, and influence consistently.
But this isn’t just theory. Lisec applies persuasion psychology to today’s trends. Why do throuples triads and the 80/20 rule go hand in hand? Because 20% of relationship models generate 80% of public fascination. Once that fascination crosses a threshold, normalization follows. Lisec illustrates how the same mechanism explains why certain political candidates dominate headlines, why only a few ghostwriters (including himself) produce most bestselling books, and why predicting cultural outcomes is less about guessing and more about applying the 80/20 principle.
Key themes in Ep. 291: Throuples, Triads, & the 80/20 Rule: Predicting the Future include:
• Why the 80/20 rule relationships framework explains the rise of polycules and open closed relationships.
• How fractal distribution makes the 80/20 rule Pareto principle repeat across industries, families, and social networks.
• The role of persuasion examples and persuasion techniques in accelerating cultural change.
• What persuasion psychology teaches us about how to persuade someone to do something in love, work, and politics.
• Why persuasive techniques and techniques of persuasion in writing are key to shaping conversations about the future.
By the end of this episode, you’ll see why Lisec says life is never “one cause, one effect” — it’s always a web of influences where 20% of factors drive 80% of the results. If you can identify those factors, you can master persuasion, anticipate shifts before they happen, and even stake your claim in shaping the future.
Whether you’re curious about throuples triads and the 80/20 rule, fascinated by persuasion examples from culture and history, or simply want to sharpen your own ability to see patterns others miss, this Daily Persuasion episode with Joshua Lisec is a masterclass in connecting the dots.
