The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene: The Mindset Warrior Summary Guide

This summary of The 48 Laws of Power has been an important one. I have read the original book with all it amazing explanations and I must say that this summary was never far from it. I think it has done a good job of giving readers an easy to comprehend and digest summary guide. I find this totally helpful. I plan to keep reading / listening to the 48 Laws unto it's part of my DNA. But be warned that it's not for everyone.- NEW PARADIGMafter listening the 48 laws, you will never see the world the same way again. once you understand some of these laws you will see many underlying currents and motives you did not see before.- INCREASES POWERyou wil become exponentially more powerfull by knowing and understanding these laws-CRYSTAL CLEARevery law is clearly outlined with "transgression" of the law, "observance" of the law, keys to power, and a "reversal"-GREAT STORIESthe 48 laws are packed with mindblowing and sometimes humorous stories of people in history practicing these laws. this is helpful as some of the concepts are quite abstract.WARNING:-RISKY (if you're not careful)an old proverb says " A man who plays with snakes will eventually be bitten". If you begin to use the 48 Laws improperly, you could get yourself in some dangerous situations, lose friends, piss off a lot a people, and destroy relationships- REQUIRES DISCERNMENTif you you are looking for a highly concrete book that the says "do abc and you will accomplish xyz" look elsewhere. the Laws require good judgement and and and prospecting nature to practice and apply-NOT FOR EVERYONEIf you are aghast at the idea of manipulation and deceit then read with caution.OVERALL: If you want to have more power or a better understanding of why different situations turn out the the way they do, you should definitely read the 48 laws of power by Robert Greene. Some reviews labeling Robert Greene as evil don't understand.First, to understand the 48 laws of power, you must know two key ideas1. you CAN NOT escape the power game. thinking you can "not participate" is as foolish as thinking that you could somehow escape gravity or make the sun stand still. Robert Greene explains why in the intro with some excellent examples2. the 48 laws of power are neither good nor evil; they are just LAWS. If someone pushed a man off a cliff would you blame gravity for for his demise? This is the mindset you must adopt in order to learn a lot from this book.Robert Greene gave me my "3rd eye" .

A great way to spend an hour of you life

It teaches about every day life, on several levels.

This is a good quick reference to “The 48 Laws of Power.” It’s better to read the actual book (which I will be reading again). This got 3 of 5 stars because it needs editing and proofreading.

This book was not what I thought it was. I thought this was a book on universal laws. Not psychological manipulation. This book was also poorly edited.

Great book just condensed a little too much for me

This reads like a middle schooler book report. Spelling errors, grammatical errors, misuse of quotes, incomplete sentences, half thoughts and all. I thought it would be a good taste of the book for my teen, but it misses HUGE chunks of the good information and is written in disjointed bullet point style. It took almost a month to recieve, so I finally ordered another one to make up for the lost one and BOTH came in the same package. What a waste. I will be returning both books.*edit* I just recieved a THIRD version of this crap in the mail. Worst seller, worst product. Huge waste do not buy.

This summary of The 48 Laws of Power has been a profound one. I was able to read the original book with all it amazing explanations and I must say that this summary was never far from it. I think it has done a good job of giving readers an easy to comprehend and digest summary guide. I find this totally inspiring and interesting enough that I had read it twice. And I have always been a fan of Law 4, which says "Always Say Less than Necessary." I find this useful in current state of my life. And I have always regarded Law 19 very epic, Know Who You Are Dealing With - Do Not Offend The Wrong Person.

For me it would have been a 5 star if each page had numbers so that it would be easier for me to find where i left off. I dont like marking a book i doubt a eraser will help much since the mark is still going to be visible.
