“THE 48 LAWS OF POWER.
A book written by Robert Greene that offers a series of strategies for obtaining and maintaining power in various situations. Here I leave you a summary of the 48 laws:
1. Don't outshine the boss: Make your superiors feel superior. Don't expose your talent too much or you might trigger their insecurity.
2. Don't trust friends too much, use your enemies: Friends betray you more easily, but if you manage to win an enemy, they will be more loyal.
3. Hide your intentions: Keep people off balance so they can't anticipate your actions.
4. Always say less than necessary: Silence breeds power, and talking too much reveals your plans.
5. Protect your reputation at all costs: Reputation is the cornerstone of power.
6. Call attention at all costs: Be visible to be relevant.
7. Make others work for you and attribute it: Take advantage of the work and effort of others to your advantage.
8. Make others come to you: Don't run after others, make them look for you.
9. Win with actions, never arguments: Prove your point through actions, not words.
10. Avoid losers and unhappy: The misfortune of others is contagious; stay away from those who bring you down.
11. Make people depend on you: If others depend on you, you're in control.
12. Disarm with sincerity and selective generosity: Emotional disarmament will give you an edge.
13. When you ask for help, appeal to the interests of others: Appeal to what benefits others, not gratitude or compassion.
14. Introduce yourself as a friend, act as a spy: Learn to extract valuable information from others without them noticing.
15. Crush your enemy completely: Do not let your enemy recover, or he will seek revenge.
16. Use absence to increase respect: The value of something increases with scarcity..
17. Keep others in suspense: Be unpredictable, you will confuse others and gain power.
18. Do not isolate yourself: Loneliness weakens you; engage yourself in the web of influence.
19. Know Who You’re Dealin
