[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

Win through your actions, never through argument.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Work at what connects to you emotionally and ideas will come to you.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Act before it becomes impossible to disentangle one strand of misery from another, or to see how the whole thing started

[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

Create a situation where others are compelled to seek your attention and approval, using bait if necessary.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Reminder: Rid yourself of the desire to find shortcuts.

[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

Strategic absence can foster admiration and reverence from others.

[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

Isolating yourself from the world will deny you access to valuable information. As a result, you will be vulnerable to enemy attacks.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Your mind is the starting point of all war and all strategy.

A mind that is easily overwhelmed by emotion, that is rooted in the past instead of the present, that cannot see the world with clarity and urgency, will create strategies that will always miss the mark.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

The greatest battle of all is with yourself—your weaknesses, your emotions, your lack of resolution in seeing things through to the end. You must declare unceasing war on yourself.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

It is your own bad strategies, not the unfair opponent, that are to blame for your failures. You are responsible for the good and bad in your life.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Everything in life can be taken away from you and generally will be at some point.

Your wealth vanishes, the latest gadgetry suddenly becomes passé, your allies desert you.

But if your mind is armed with the art of war, there is no power that can take that away.

In the middle of a crisis, your mind will find its way to the right solution.

Having superior strategies at your fingertips will give your maneuvers irresistible force.

As Sun-tzu says, “Being unconquerable lies with yourself.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Nobody likes to believe that they are operating under some kind of compulsion beyond their control. It is too disturbing a thought.

[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

Never whine, never complain, never try to justify yourself.

When Miyamoto Musashi wrote:

"You must understand that there is more than one path to the top of the mountain."

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

We see people not as they are, but as they appear to us. And these appearances are usually misleading.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

If you are observing someone you naturally dislike, or who reminds you of someone unpleasant in your past, you will tend to see almost any cue as unfriendly or hostile. You will do the opposite for people you like. In these exercises you must strive to subtract your personal preferences and prejudices about people.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Our continual connection to social media makes us prone to new forms of viral emotional effects. These are not media designed for calm reflection.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Being self-reliant is critical. To make yourself less dependent on others and so-called experts, you need to expand your repertoire of skills.

[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

Seek attention relentlessly, employing various tactics to captivate and influence others.
