The Concise Laws of Power

Make other people come to you use bait if necessary

When you force the other person to add you are the one in control it's always better to make your opponent come to you abandoning his own plans in the process law in with fabulous gains then attack you hold the cards how many times has this scenario played itself out in history and aggressively the initiate a series of bold moves that begin by bringing him much power slowly however his power reaches a peak and soon everything turns against him his numerous enemies band together trying to maintain his power here just himself going in this direction and that and inevitably collapse the reason for this pattern and is that the aggressive person is really in full control he cannot see more than a couple of moves ahead cannot see the consequences of this bold move or that one because he is constantly being forced to react to the most of his ever-growing list of enemies and to the unforeseen consequences of his own rash actions is aggressive energy is turned against him in the realm of power you must ask yourself what is the point of chasing here and they're trying to solve problems and defeat my enemies if I never feel in control where am I always having to react to event instead of directing them the answer is simple your idea of power is wrong you have been taking aggressive action for effective action is to stay back keep calm and let others be frustrated by the traps you leave for them playing for long-term power rather than quick victory remember the essence of power is the ability to keep the initiative to get others to react your moves to keep your opponent and those around you on the defensive when you make other people come to you you suddenly become the one controlling the situation and the one who has control has power to things must happen to place you in the position you yourself must learn to master your emotions and never to be influenced by anger by however you must play on people's natural tendency to react angrily when push that date dated in the long run the ability to make others come to you is a weapon far more powerful than any tool of oppression 100 benefit of making the opponent come to you is that it forces him to operate in your territory been an all-star ground will make him nervous and often he will call us his actions and make mistakes for negotiations or meetings is always wise to law others into your territory or the territory of your choice you have your bearings why they see nothing familiar and are simply placed on the defensive manipulation is a dangerous game once someone suspect is being mandated it becomes harder and harder to control it but when you make your opponent come to you you create the illusion that is controlled the situation the great 19th century robber-baron Daniel was a master at playing the stock market when he wanted a particular stock to be bought or sold driving prices up and down he barely resorted to the door each approach one of his tricks was to Henry through an exclusive club near Wall Street obviously on his way to the stock exchange and to pull out his customary red bandana to wipe his persevering bro a slip of paper would fall from his bandana that he would pretend not to notice the club's members were always trying to force Idris Musa and they would pounce on the paper which invariably seem to contain an inside thing on a stock what would spread and members will buy or sell the stock in droves playing perfectly into dreams and everything depends on the sweetness of your bait if your trip is attractive enough the turbulence of your enemies emotions and desires will blind them to reality the greedier they become the more they can be led around the honey bear trap the beer Hunter does not change his prey a beer that knows it is until is nearly impossible to catch and his ferocious if consent is today until a Strauss baited with only he does not exhausting self and reached his life in pursuit debate then wait good warriors make others come to them and do not go to order this is the principal of emptiness and fullness of others and self when you induce opponent to come to you then they are force is always empty as long as you do not go to them your force is always full attacking anything else with fullness is like throwing Stones on eggs.
