The Worst Mistake of All: Outshining the Master “Being defeated is hateful, and besting one’s boss is either foolish or fatal. Most people do not mind being surpassed in good fortune, character, or temperament, but no one, especially not a sovereign, likes to be surpassed in intelligence.” — Baltasar Gracián In The 48 Laws of Power, Robert Greene echoes the sentiments of Gracián’s quote above in the first law: Never Outshine the Master. Greene writes: 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. Outshining the master is the worst mistake of all … Everyone has insecurities. When you show yourself in the world and display your talents, you naturally stir up all kinds of resentment, envy, and other manifestations of insecurity. This is to be expected. You cannot spend your life worrying about the petty feelings of others. With those above you, however, you must take a different approach: When it comes to power, outshining the master is perhaps the worst mistake of all. Almost everyone, including you, wants to seem more brilliant than we rightly deserve. And we don’t like people to remind us of our fallibility. Those who attain high standing in life are like kings and queens: They want to feel secure in their positions, and superior to those around them in intelligence, wit, and charm. It is a deadly but common misperception to believe that by displaying and vaunting your gifts and talents, you are winning the master’s affection. He may feign appreciation, but at his first opportunity he will replace you with someone less intelligent, less attractive, less threatening.. Putin boys will fear him more now. 160 Likes 14 Shares |

I admire men like Prigozhin who outsmart the limitations placed by society. Western media seldom talks about him in a sentence without mentioning his juvenile past of fraud and robbery, that landed him a 12 years sentence in the 80's. It is not his juvenile years of crime I admire, but how he was able to reposition himself into society as a food seller in kiosks on the streets of Moscow, to owner of luxurious chain of restaurants that hosted Putin and foreign dignitaries. Consequently he morphed himself from a petty crime boss to a lucrative businessman that fed the Kremlin and Russia's baracks, accruing billions of dollars in contracts from the Russian state. All this through Putin's patronage. There is no denying with little to no military formation he extended his prowess in business to the Wagner Private Military Company that put Russia on the map of modern warfare tactics albeit brutality. However the day he saw of himself as the butterfly who had grown into a vulture, big enough to spill the blood of Russian pilots cos of grievances he could have directly hot lined Putin, was the end of the road for him. Lesson learned, Everyone has got a limit Despite publicly declaring his mutiny was against military chiefs and not Putin, he outrightly placed the latter in a position of weakness that was masturbated by Western media for weeks. Whether Putin directly or indirectly has a hand in his demise yesterday, he has repositioned his image as a no nonsense dictator capable of taking his pound of flesh whenever and however. Whether you are Pro or Anti Putin, the lesson here is Never Bite the Finger that Fed You Dr Ayukebot O Rowland Pharmacognosist Flavell MEDICINA 99 Likes 12 Shares |

Prigozin is the most foolish personality of the 21st century. Putin sent an airstrike to kill him, he survived it. He then sent assassins and Prigozin cheated death a second time. There are only 2 rational response to those attacks, either run for your life or fight back. Prigozin chose to fight back by invading Russia. That was a brilliant power move because most capable Russian soldiers are in Ukraine. He would have overrun the capital within a day or 2 and shark oligarchs will rally round him to install a new leader. But he got deceived by Belarus president Lukashenko, who is a known ass-licker of Putin. Lukashenko, the only president in the world who goes to pay homage to another country's ruler every weekend. Any student of Sun Tzu or Machievalli knows that a smart and ruthless emperor like Putin will never forgive such rebellion. Prigozin who talks more than he can think hoped that he can eat his cake and still have it because of a deal Lukashenko promised him. Putin once again shows why he has been in power for 24 years unchallenged. This death is a clear message to any dissent within Russia. Fall in line or die. 79 Likes 7 Shares |
