The 48 Laws of Power WHERE gladys boss shollei WENT WRONG Never Outshine the Master 1)Always make those above you feel comfortably superior. In your desire to please or impress them, do not go too far in displaying your talents or you might accomplish the opposite – inspire fear and insecurity. Make your masters appear more brilliant than they are and you will attain the heights of power.SHE MISSED THIS WHEN SHE THOUGHT SHE IS THE OUT-MOST BOSS IN THE JUDICIARY,BELITTLING JSC AND CJ Law 2 Never put too Much Trust in Friends, Learn how to use Enemies Be wary of friends-they will betray you more quickly, for they are easily aroused to envy. They also become spoiled and tyrannical. But hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more to prove. In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies. If you have no enemies, find a way to make them.SHE TOOK THE MEDIA AS HER DARLING ALWAYS WANTING TO DO STUFF TO BE SEEN NOT KNOWING THE SAME MEDIA WILL BE THERE WHEN SHE BURNS Law 3 Conceal your Intentions Keep people off-balance and in the dark by never revealing the purpose behind your actions. If they have no clue what you are up to, they cannot prepare a defence. Guide them far enough down the wrong path, envelope them in enough smoke, and by the time they realize your intentions, it will be too late.SHE NEVER DID THIS INFACT SHE HIRED PEOPLE THAT SHE WAS WORKING WITH IN HER FORMER INSTITUTION AND GAVE TENDERS TO FAMILY[HER HUSBAND} INCLUDED Law 4 Always Say Less than Necessary When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. Even if you are saying something banal, it will seem original if you make it vague, open-ended, and sphinx-like. Powerful people impress and intimidate by saying less. The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish.SELF EXPLAINED,CLAIMING JSC ARE BUILDING A PLOT TO SUCK HER Law 5 So Much Depends on Reputation – Guard it with your Life Reputation is the cornerstone of power. Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once you slip, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides. Make your reputation unassailable. Always be alert to potential attacks and thwart them before they happen. Meanwhile, learn to destroy your enemies by opening holes in their own reputations. Then stand aside and let public opinion hang them.SHE CAME WITH A GOOD TITLE AT FIRST,BUT SHE HAS LOST IT WHEN SHE HAS LEFT JUDICIARY Law 6 Court Attention at all Cost Everything is judged by its appearance; what is unseen counts for nothing. Never let yourself get lost in the crowd, then, or buried in oblivion. Stand out. Be conspicuous, at all cost. Make yourself a magnet of attention by appearing larger, more colourful, more mysterious, than the bland and timid masses.SHE NEVER DID THIS SHE LET MY TEAM TAKE CONTROL OF EVERYTHING INCLUDING THE SUPREME OFFICES Law 7 Get others to do the Work for you, but Always Take the Credit Use the wisdom, knowledge, and legwork of other people to further your own cause. Not only will such assistance save you valuable time and energy, it will give you a godlike aura of efficiency and speed. In the end your helpers will be forgotten and you will be remembered. Never do yourself what others can do for you.SHE NEVER LET OUR OLD STUFF WORK WITH HER SHE WAS ALWAYS SURROUNDED BY THE NEW NEW GROUP,THIS WAS LIKE SHE WAS WORKING ALONE Law 8 Make other People come to you – use Bait if Necessary When you force the other person to act, you are the one in control. It is always better to make your opponent come to you, abandoning his own plans in the process. Lure him with fabulous gains – then attack. You hold the cards.SHE LOST THIS WHEN SHE STARTED MOVING PEOPLE FROM THE ONES,INCLUDING THE COURT OF APPEAL Law 9 Win through your Actions, Never through Argument Any momentary triumph you think gained through argument is really a Pyrrhic victory: The resentment and ill will you stir up is stronger and lasts longer than any momentary change of opinion. It is much more powerful to get others to agree with you through your actions, without saying a word. Demonstrate, do not explicate.HER ACTIONS WERE ALL STALE FROM THE TIME SHE STARTED PROVIDING LUNCH FOR CHOSEN OFFICES AND REWARDING SOME STAFFS AND GIVING COMPULSORY LEAVE Law 18 Do Not Build Fortresses to Protect Yourself – Isolation is Dangerous The world is dangerous and enemies are everywhere – everyone has to protect themselves. A fortress seems the safest. But isolation exposes you to more dangers than it protects you from – it cuts you off from valuable information, it makes you conspicuous and an easy target. Better to circulate among people find allies, mingle. You are shielded from your enemies by the crowd BY NOT SURROUNDING HER SELF WITH THE OLD STAFF SHE ISOLATED HER SELF MANY MORE ARE COMING IN THE MEAN TIME READ The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene and Joost Elffers
