LAW 39 STIR WATERS TO CATCH FISH | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

“Anger and emotion are strategically counterproductive. You must always stay calm and objective. But if you can make your enemies angry while staying calm yourself you gain a decided advantage. Put your enemies’ off-balance: Find the chink in their vanity through which you can rattle them and you hold the strings.” Get The 48 Laws Of Power here.

LAW 38 THINK AS YOU LIKE BUT BEHAVE LIKE OTHERS | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

"If you make a show of going against the times, flaunting your unconventional ideas and unorthodox ways, people will think that you only want attention and that you look down upon them. They will find a way to punish you for making them feel inferior. It is far safer to blend in and nurture the common touch. Share your originality only with tolerant friends and those who are sure to appreciate your uniqueness." Get The 48 Laws Of Power here. If you prefer reading here is the written summary of t...

LAW 37 CREATE COMPELLING SPECTACLES | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

"Striking imagery and grand symbolic gestures create the aura of power—everyone responds to them.

LAW 36 DISDAIN THINGS YOU CANNOT HAVE | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

"By acknowledging a petty problem you give it existence and credibility. The more attention you pay an enemy, the stronger you make him; and a small mistake is often made worse and more visible when you try to fix it. It is sometimes best to leave things alone. If there is something you want but cannot have, show contempt for it. The less interest you reveal, the more superior you seem." Get The 48 Laws Of Power here.

LAW 35 MASTER THE ART OF TIMING | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

"Never seem to be in a hurry—hurrying betrays a lack of control over yourself, and over time. Always seem patient, as if you know that everything will come to you eventually. Become a detective of the right moment; sniff out the spirit of the times, the trends that will carry you to power. Learn to stand back when the time is not yet ripe, and to strike fiercely when it has reached fruition." Get The 48 Laws Of Power here. If you prefer reading here is the written summary of this rule.

LAW 34 ACT LIKE A KING TO BE TREATED LIKE ONE | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

“The way you carry yourself will often determine how you are treated: In the long run, appearing vulgar or common will make people disrespect you.

LAW 33 DISCOVER EACH MANS THUMBSCREW | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

“Everyone has a weakness, a gap in the castle wall. That weakness is usually insecurity, an uncontrollable emotion or need; it can also be a small secret pleasure.

LAW 32 PLAY TO PEOPLES FANTASIES | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

"The truth is often avoided because it is ugly and unpleasant. Never appeal to truth and reality unless you are prepared for the anger that comes from disenchantment. Life is so harsh and distressing that people who can manufacture romance or conjure up fantasy are like oases in the desert: Everyone flocks to them. There is great power in tapping into the fantasies of the masses." Get The 48 Laws Of Power here. If you prefer reading here is the written summary of this rule. CONNECT WITH ME HERE:...

LAW 31 CONTROL THE OPTIONS: GET OTHER’S TO PLAY WITH THE CARDS YOU DEAL | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

“The best deceptions are the ones that seem to give the other person a choice: Your victims feel they are in control, but are actually your puppets. Give people options that come out in your favor whichever one they choose. Force them to make choices between the lesser of two evils, both of which serve your purpose. Put them on the horns of a dilemma: They are gored wherever they turn.” Get The 48 Laws Of Power here. If you prefer reading here is the written summary of this rule. CONNECT WITH ME...

“Your actions must seem natural and executed with ease. All the toil and practice that go into them, and also all the clever tricks, must be concealed. When you act, act effortlessly, as if you could do much more. Avoid the temptation of revealing how hard you work — it only raises questions.

LAW 24 PLAY THE PERFECT COURTIER | THE 48 LAWS OF POWER BOOK SUMMARY ANALYSIS (ROBERT GREENE)

"The perfect courtier thrives in a world where everything revolves around power and political dexterity.
