the 48 rules of power

I wrote a summary of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power on my website.  I'll be reading and uploading shorts on this channel.

In this clip, I dive into the first law from Robert Greene's The 48 Laws of Power: never outshine the master. The idea is simple—make your boss feel good about themselves, let them take the credit, and you’ll see doors of opportunity openning up for you.

Law 1: Never Outshine the Master - Shah's Summary of the 48 Laws of Power

I wrote a summary of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power on my website.  I'll be reading and uploading shorts on this channel.

In this clip, I talk about Greene's second law: be careful with your friends and learn to use your enemies.  We often take our friends for granted, especially when we’re in a position of power. Friends can grow resentful, and that bitterness might eventually lead them to try and bring you down. Instead of depending on friends to help you succeed, consider turning to a fallen rival. Give your rivals a chance to rise, and they’ll likely be grateful—and loyal—for the opportunity.

Law 2: Be Careful With Your Friends, Use Your Enemies - Shah's Summary of the 48 Laws of Power

I wrote a summary of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power on my website.  I'll be reading and uploading shorts on this channel.

In this clip, I look at Greene's third law - the subtle power of keeping your intentions hidden. Think of it like a game of chess - if your opponent can’t predict your next move, they’re left guessing, unsure of how to counter you. By concealing your true motives, you keep others off balance, giving yourself the advantage of surprise. It’s not about being deceitful; it’s about protecting your vision and staying in control. When you act with purpose and keep your cards close to your chest, you take charge of your own destiny, moving on your terms without interference.

Law 3: Hide Your True Motives - Shah's Summary of the 48 Laws of Power

I wrote a summary of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power on my website.  I'll be reading and uploading shorts on this channel.

In this clip, I talk about the power of saying less. In conversations, the words you choose can shape how others perceive you. While it’s tempting to talk a lot to impress, this can often backfire, revealing too much or exposing weaknesses. Speaking less, on the other hand, exudes confidence and control, making your words carry more weight. Silence, when used wisely, creates mystery and leaves others guessing. The trick is finding the balance—saying just enough to keep people engaged while maintaining control over how you’re perceived. Sometimes, the less you say, the more powerful you become.

Law 4: Say Less Than is Necessary - Shah's Summary of the 48 Laws of Power

I wrote a summary of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power on my website.  I'll be reading and uploading shorts on this channel.

In this clip, I talk about the power of reputation. A strong reputation shields you from attacks, while a weak one leaves you vulnerable. Control is essential—manage perception and act quickly against threats. Reputation is both your defence and your weapon—protect it and use it wisely.
