Laws of Power – 30
Make your accomplishments seem effortless: your actions must seem natural and executed with all the toil and practice that go into them, and also with all the clever tricks, must be concealed. When you act, act effortlessly, as if you could do much more. Avoid the temptation of revealing how hard you work — it… Read More
