To better understand how people tick and be able to manipulate their minds, observing and studying human behavior is the best way. Research into psychological theories and techniques such as psycholinguistics, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), influence techniques, tactical questioning and hypnosis can also provide some useful insights. Reading articles and books on cognitive science or taking courses related to the field can also help increase understanding in this area. Finally, spending time with different types of people from all walks of life will expand your exposure to various aspects of human behaviour which you can observe, dissect and learn from.

Reading up on various psychological theories and research is a great start. You can also try observing people and looking for patterns in their behaviors and decision-making processes. You can even experiment with manipulation yourself by running your own trials to see how different techniques affect people. Through this, you should be able to gain insight into how people tick, eventually leading you to developing methods of manipulating their minds more effectively.
