I agree. Personally couldn't go past law # 10 but unfortunately that is what the world has come to in pursuit of fame, money or women to the detriment of moral values. The only two rules I found that worked for me are;
1. Be yourself
2. Follow your gut

For some of us who have not come across them, could you maybe attach a link where we can find the laws?

Thanks

bt honestly,they av pushed me to the top of the ladder of success,especially the part that states,"never do something that others cn do for u"
it gives me tym to dedicate myself to the most important matters.
i love them.

16th of 48 laws of power: Use absence to increase respect and honor.
Highly practiced by politicians.
Above all, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.

Wah! Either this book is pure evil or the world we live in is. The book pre-supposes that there is no inherent good in people and that to get by and/or thrive, one has to employ treacherous cunning measures. God forbid, oh!

The book is not on how one should live, rather it is on the harsh laws of power acquisition.

The book is very practical and at times the rules are very simple.

Infact some of those rules are applied by kids against their parents without realizing it!

If there is something I've come to learn over the years, is that you can never separate yourself, from yourself. The way you behave in the office has an influence in your behavior at home etc

Went over the book just last week.Found the majority of the laws to be too malicious for my liking. I don't think one should read the book like a Bible but maybe just try to understand the laws without intent to implement (all). Only found a few laws that I would apply myself
