2012 is the year probably I have read varieties of extra
curriculum books than ever before, from novel stories to religious books,
philosophical books to biographies of public icons. In so doing I came to
realize how the world is blessed with extra potentials; I also came to realize
diversities of ideas and the angles through which people do judgment of things.
I was so moved sometimes with the ideas in those books to
the extent of trying to practice everything I read in practical life,(copy n
paste) however letter on I came to release that, The ideas/stories discussed by
authors remain as a corner storm for me to start pondering and critically analyzes what to do and act accordingly. And that probably defines
effective readings.
Reading books without having time to digest the ideas u have
read to your own opinion is useless, and even fatal. It’s fatal because it
kills your own potentials and become slave of someone’s mind.
Of the all books in the long list of books I have read in
2012, 48 laws of power by Robert Greene remain as no. 1 book that
I disagree with most author’s ideas he discussed in his 195 pages’ book. To me
Robert preaches on dishonesty, deceit, cynical and hypocrites, he emphasizes on
power at any cost, at expenses of traumatizing others. Although he didn’t
mentions, my reservations takes me to think even taking someone’s breath, is
one of his way he would advocate, To my opinion if the world could buy his
ideas to practical life, the world could
be more than hell…
Here is his no.1 law of power…..
RULE NO.1
Never outshine the
master
Always make those above u feels comfortably superior.in your
desire to please and impress them,do not go far in displaying your talents or
you might accomplish the opposite-inspire fear and insecurity. Makes your
master appear more brilliant than they are and you will attain the heights of
power
