I read the summary of this book on Littler Books and thought some of the advice are very questionable. Would anyone actually want to interact with someone who "get others to do the work for you, but always take the credit", or "use selective honesty and generosity to disarm their victims"? Thoughts?
Thank you for the 48 Laws of Power. I am 72 years old. I don’t have a relationship with my family. I worried about who would help me if I fell ill. For over a year, I had nightmares of horrible things happening to me as I aged. I reread the 48 Laws of Power 2 months ago hoping for wisdom. I fell ill last month. My doctor failed to find the cause of my illness. The next day after the doctor visit, I lay in bed feeling sick when I remembered 2 laws: enter with boldness (36) and be formless (48). I opened my laptop and sent gift cards to people I knew and ignored the advice of my mental health counselor who told me that they may question my motives. Within minutes I felt well. My friends never questioned my motives and were happy I reached out. I terminated the services of my counselor. I decided I am going to face my future with boldness and be formless. Now I sleep soundly with no nightmares.
When he mentioned, "Whether I'm correct or mistaken, regardless of the market's fluctuations, it doesn't affect me," I found it perplexing. Many individuals are experiencing significant financial losses in the current environment. Personally, I've been investing in stocks since the beginning of the year, yet my situation hasn't improved. Meanwhile, I've come across stories of people who are still in the same market but have managed to make over $350,000 in just a few months. It's a challenging situation out here!
In times of market downturns, maintaining a consistently profitable portfolio can be quite demanding for the average person. These strategies are typically executed most effectively by experts with extensive market knowledge and skills. Perhaps you should consider hiring one.
i am one of those rare people who don't chase power. i don't like to give orders, but i really hate taking them. greene's work helps me to find that sweet spot in between the lions and the sheep. kind of like a honey badger, or a skunk: not antagonistic, not a victim and if you leave them alone it will all be cool. i am happier than i have been since i was a little kid and filled with a sense of freedom and potential. as always, thanks.
To not take orders requires you to have a certain amount of power lol , you chase that power without even knowing it. Maybe you re less ambitious about the amount of power you want. But that doesnt make you rare , it just makes you extremely common
“A lot of this is not about using these laws. A lot of this is about defence.” When I first listened to this audiobook my impressions of it was “this is a self-help book for sociopaths”. Perhaps it may have framed these lessons better. Instead of saying “this is what you should do” on certain chapters such as Crush Your Enemies the lesson could have been “Your Enemies will try to Crush You. Here’s what to Watch For.” This is how, as I remember Robert Greene framed his lessons in the superb Laws of Human Nature. Regardless how you feel about 48 Laws of Power The Laws of Human Nature is a must read. Also check out Mastery. While I have mixed feelings about 48 Laws, it has been 8 years since I listened to it and would be open to revisiting it. Also, congratulations on your recovery from your stroke, Mr. Greene.
Hello Robert, I pray 🤲 this message reaches you, my family and me have been ruined by our family and its taken us down and out, grief has cost us two people dying, but we continue to be good, not anymore, we need to be smart, so I brought your book and I wish I knew you growing up because I would not have wasted 21 years of my life hoping and praying people would treat me and my small family better, the outsiders having been wishing us harm , hopefully your book will give me some training and education, thank you Robert Greene
This book does one of two things... 1) It gives the confused egomaniac a blueprint to so-called 'power'. 2) Coincidently, this book can help identify individuals that would apply these practices in certain aspects of life. You can observe the lessons in this book in areas like prison, organized crime, business, and government.
This book drastically helped me with understanding for myself and my clients better. I highly recommended here. I also recommend reading the laws of human nature by Robert as well. It's a great book that really opened me up to my Shadow characteristics and those of others around me. It made me more a more empathetic person.
I'm halfway through the audiobook now & I've been listening to it on Audible & it's truly been eye-opening and at times even disturbing to come to grips with the brutal tactics of people. At the same time, it's been very insightful to understand the true nature of human beings. It's worth reading/listening to as it does prepare you for the real world so you can navigate it properly and with the right perspective. Thanks for the information Mr. Greene, your work has been very helpful and I look forward to learning more from you catalog. Take Care,
I we went through a really messy divorce 18 years ago. I read the 48 laws and used about 36 of the laws . Although I lost some money I was able to keep my dignity and not let my shortfalls effect me negatively Thank you Robert Greene.
The 48 Laws of Power are eye-opening, but if you're not exploring the hidden secrets on Nixorus, you're missing out on the true essence of power. It's time to wake up!
All your books are terrific. This is one of my favorites. We used your book for bookclub and we discussed each law, how we saw it show up in our lives and how we could use it and defend ourselves. Took almost a year but it was an extremely valuable learning experience. Thank you for all you do! 🕉
@Paul Milwee a friend just asked the same question. I think the Laws of Human Nature is where I'd start. You can't go wrong with any of Robert's books in my opinion.
Love how he applies his own rules in this Video. Notice how his shirt, hair and general posture looks like. He’s showing us he’s not too perfect (and also isn’t causing Envy in us)
My favorite part once I read the book for the first time was the preface. Then “think as you like but behave like others” was another favorite of mine. I notice even children play power games. I can see it with my niece and nephew.
The goal is to let go of the ego self and becoming a being of light; the New Man as the Bible states. We should be teaching our children differently. The problem is most don't understand these deeper things until our later years Lol. C'est la vie !!!
....woah..... I (24m) have been seeing patterns of power more and more recently, especially regarding social impact, sociology, interpersonal communication, and politics. And apparently there's already a book laying it all out. So excited to read this.
Robert Greene, Thank you so much! I too have had a small stroke & understand where you're coming from. Miss my mountain bike, but still do photography. Thanks again, the next one is "The Law's of Human Nature."
Robert you've helped me so much with your work. But I dont understand the TH-cam channel. Like you're so elusive, people who interview you dont even make you seem less mysterious. I don't think the clicks are worth it. You're perfect just how you are. We will never stop coming towards you.
Excellent analysis of the power matrix. The need to understand power can help you find your own keys to business success. The Bubble That Broke The Bank gives a realistic understanding of the coming economic descent into economic hell.
It would be cool if you made a web series where each episode adapts each one of the 48 Laws of Power. You could add updated references to events that have taken place over the past 25 years along with elements from your later books like Mastery and the Laws of Human Nature
I had to navigate decades of jealousy from my own direct bosses whom I never tried to best them at work nor talk behind their backs. Why then do they feel so insecure? They did all they could to remove me. That kind of evil which I would never do to another fellow human.
Very good channel, very interesting and meaningful stories attract me to listen often. I'm Vietnamese, I always listen to the channel's shares. You are truly amazing, the best inspiration I admire you so much.
Thank you so much Brian. You have no idea the impact your work has in the world. I’m writing to you as a lowly South African young man who never had a father in his life, and all I want to do is just express my gratitude for your work. May the hand of the Lord bless you with many more years so you can continue imparting more wisdom to the world. God bless.
I was told that this book is evil..but now I love it and my favorite book so far..will be reading his other books as well..thank you Robert for this wonderful book ❤ from 🇵🇭
This world is going to be an even bigger stage when everyone has read this book 😅. Lets hope they don't end up killing each other because their tactics aren't working.
I really love this book. its so insightful and had my full attention. it taught me so much. I listened to it on audible. but I am going to book the physical book as well to read.
I love Robert Green and appreciate him and his books . I bought several books including 48 Law. I was outshining my manager and got psychologically bullied . I didn’t understand why , felt hurt because I worked so hard to make my manager proud and to get her approval. Until I come across 48 law , read the first chapter “ never outshining master “. Robert Green is chosen one , to bring this knowledge into the world .
Robert Greene, you and Bruce Bueno de Mesquita are my favorite authors that talk about Power, have you ever think of making an interview or a podcast with him?
Any man who tries to be good all the time is bound to come to ruin amongst the great number who are not good. Hence a prince who wants to keep his authority must learn how not to be good and use that knowledge or refrain from using it as necessity demands. -Niccolo Machiavelli
I was reading the first law in 48 laws of power, and I started yesterday. I was noticeably uncomfortable reading it as I feel I'm not this type of person to manipulate others, etc. But I'm glad you mentioned this book can be used to defend against different types of manipulation
Some power game has been getting me for so long, probably because I was raised in the Middle East, where the saying, “the tree was much fruit that bows low.” Oh, although I’m some of the selfish person, I am a Christian and try to do on to others as I would answer myself. But I find that sometimes in doing so with people - even family members with more money it almost seems like they think they’re more powerful and then I have to check myself and not do anything for them even the ones who tend to do more for others. It actually gets difficult because for example, if a sibling asked me to carry a dog crate and they’re carrying 1 million other things , I actually start thinking they’re not even asking me nicely like it’s me can you please it’s just like can you carry the crate and like I would never do that to them I would actually never ask anyone unless I was really dead so then I find myself not wanting to do it cause I’m feeling like their worker and that’s not what I am and I’m not signing up for more of the sameespecially coming from a background where you end up looking codependent because you do want others what you have done to yourself and I know all the power rules but it is amazing how hard this is to actually do in real life
I heard about this book yesterday! I watched a video detailing every law last night. And today I find that the author has dimerised the book 3 days ago! I felt like I already live by these laws! Maybe 40 out of the 48 are just my personality anyway! Started thinking maybe I’m a psychopath lol.. but I feel like I win in life the only difference is my power resides at the bottom! I am the top of the bottom and I’m happy with it. I seem to get what I want when I need it and I’ve always felt like the universe favours me above all.. they call me king Henry
I read this back in the early '00s. It was instrumental in helping me navigate corporate politics. Before reading this I was blissfully naive, but constantly frustrated and confused by people in management. Corporate politics are full of delicate egos and precariously balanced positions of power. I am extremely grateful for this book and its help in my career. Thank you, Robert Green!
The 48 Laws of Power is actually my 2nd Bible, I've read it more times than I can remember. Whenever I find myself making 'moronic blunders' I go back to reread the book. In 2017, I distilled 48 Sonnets of Power (unpublished) from the 48 Laws. Thank you Robert Greene for the role you play in my life, I would've been lost in this wide wild world without your guide.
What is frightening is the manipulators to whom it comes naturally and I believe that is actually most people. The book simply enables you to be more cautious and guarded thereby protecting and advancing yourself more effectively.
As someone who survived a malignant narcissist and extortion in court via false claims i am all over Robert’s books. Wish i had heard about them earlier!
This book is amazing to be honest. And it truly made me see a whole new layer of reality. I can deduce and predict situations, I can see who people actually are instead of believing the mask they give to the world - you're able to see behind the mask. Similar to Dantes from Count of Monte Christo who had to deduce what happened to him - who betrayed him, how did he end up in prison. And there are many moments like this in our life, and this book - 48 Laws of Power - gives you the tools to see who are the enemies in your life pretending to be your friends, and because you're able to recognize them, you're less likely to get backstabbed by them.
I’ve seen a lot of people call the book “evil” and that’s just crazy. I’m a devout Christian and find this book most valuable and not a shred of “evil” in it. What it does, is speak directly toward human nature and makes you more aware. For those that are more on the religious end it will absolutely help you guide through life in a way that will foster success while also keeping your values and morales (whatever those may be) as your guardrails. I love the book because it’s direct and objective and then you can figure out how to apply it to your own life. It’s not “an evil book that teaches you to do bad things”. It’s data, explained well and you apply it how you see fit.
Yeah, it's like reading inside of the Devil's heart and knowing exactly how all the bad thing on Earth could happen and being able to prevent them cuz you know how they exactly work. The most important thing is to use the advices of this book for your own sake and avoid all the abuses in society because of it.
First I was afraid of even listening to this book…because malignant narcissist I met did almost everything described in this book to seduce me. I was frightened when I found out that such book exists. I was worried if people are going to use this book as their guidebook to do bad things… and overpower victims. However I realized that it is important to see the World as it is. The shadow part of the World is not outside of me. We are all connected to it. We have to face it so we can transcend it to something better… we have to know ourselves And know our enemies in order to win… life, individually. Thank you for providing your years of experience and wisdom Roberts! I will use it to navigate this World so I don’t get deceived.
It's not bragging if it's true! Love your books. If you're not paying attention to this man you're basically handicapping yourself in this thing called life.
Personally I'm not a fan of using power to benefit myself but I understand that it isn't the game others play either subconsciously or Consciously. The book has helped me understand WHEN someone is using power so that I may plan/strategize accordingly. When he says "this is defense" is certainly hitting the nail on the head. As a result, I've made good friend with distance. And enemies whom need more distance. We love Robert Green.
The problem is that when these laws are not applied properly and appropriately especially by the right individuals then they can be very dangerous because for example when one of those laws that you just spoke of was enacted by my own father in keeping us dependent on him well then he did us a disservice by delaying our growth and are Independence and are Reliance on ourselves and in a sense we grew to hate him for it or maybe hate is rather a strong word but resent him for it
Also, how do you work power and people actually being grateful to you and loving you because the twist is I know how to be powerful or manipulate but I want and I also want others with me I enjoy having trust, teamwork, collaboration, fostering the desire to please the other, and do your bestI definitely don’t wanna fall. Just manipulating with power.
Thanks for this video. I love self growth and I also like the book, change your thoughts change your life by Wayne Dwyer. I think from your video I’m going to like your book

Huge fan here from Mongolia!
Its took me 6 years to implament this law. Keep learning this
written when I was born. definitely will keep reading till my death.
I consider you to be my gods. You taught me life.
Tanks for present such professional way this subject
I heard about this book yesterday! I watched a video detailing every law last night. And today I find that the author has dimerised the book 3 days ago! I felt like I already live by these laws! Maybe 40 out of the 48 are just my personality anyway! Started thinking maybe I’m a psychopath lol.. but I feel like I win in life the only difference is my power resides at the bottom! I am the top of the bottom and I’m happy with it. I seem to get what I want when I need it and I’ve always felt like the universe favours me above all.. they call me king Henry
Mastery is really taking me to an unknown world I never knew existed
Once again thank you Robert
I read this back in the early '00s. It was instrumental in helping me navigate corporate politics. Before reading this I was blissfully naive, but constantly frustrated and confused by people in management. Corporate politics are full of delicate egos and precariously balanced positions of power. I am extremely grateful for this book and its help in my career. Thank you, Robert Green!
I just bought your books today I’m so ready to read them.😊
I’m about to start reading it right now.
Gonna buy and listen it from today
Thats so cool
Now you know how Jesus Christ became the Greatest Person in Human History. Thank you Robert!
Done. I just purchased an ebook for my Kobo. Looking forward to soaking up your wisdom.
We trust you, Robert.
Thank you legend
The 48 Laws of Power is actually my 2nd Bible, I've read it more times than I can remember. Whenever I find myself making 'moronic blunders' I go back to reread the book. In 2017, I distilled 48 Sonnets of Power (unpublished) from the 48 Laws. Thank you Robert Greene for the role you play in my life, I would've been lost in this wide wild world without your guide.
Would be amazing if you made videos about the 48 laws of power in game of thrones
You read my mind 😭❤️
What is frightening is the manipulators to whom it comes naturally and I believe that is actually most people. The book simply enables you to be more cautious and guarded thereby protecting and advancing yourself more effectively.
Thank you 🙏
As someone who survived a malignant narcissist and extortion in court via false claims i am all over Robert’s books. Wish i had heard about them earlier!
Power and influence will always try to increase by foul or favor, by friend or foe, well meaning or ill intent.
This book is amazing to be honest. And it truly made me see a whole new layer of reality. I can deduce and predict situations, I can see who people actually are instead of believing the mask they give to the world - you're able to see behind the mask. Similar to Dantes from Count of Monte Christo who had to deduce what happened to him - who betrayed him, how did he end up in prison. And there are many moments like this in our life, and this book - 48 Laws of Power - gives you the tools to see who are the enemies in your life pretending to be your friends, and because you're able to recognize them, you're less likely to get backstabbed by them.
48 LAWS OF POWER IS EXTREMELY VALUABLE BOOK
ROBERT SIR YOU ARE THE BEST.
U r not bragging anything Robert your books are legit
I’ve seen a lot of people call the book “evil” and that’s just crazy. I’m a devout Christian and find this book most valuable and not a shred of “evil” in it. What it does, is speak directly toward human nature and makes you more aware. For those that are more on the religious end it will absolutely help you guide through life in a way that will foster success while also keeping your values and morales (whatever those may be) as your guardrails.
I love the book because it’s direct and objective and then you can figure out how to apply it to your own life.
It’s not “an evil book that teaches you to do bad things”. It’s data, explained well and you apply it how you see fit.
Yeah, it's like reading inside of the Devil's heart and knowing exactly how all the bad thing on Earth could happen and being able to prevent them cuz you know how they exactly work. The most important thing is to use the advices of this book for your own sake and avoid all the abuses in society because of it.

The book itself is not evil - however, it can be used for evil.
Brilliance
First I was afraid of even listening to this book…because malignant narcissist I met did almost everything described in this book to seduce me. I was frightened when I found out that such book exists. I was worried if people are going to use this book as their guidebook to do bad things… and overpower victims. However I realized that it is important to see the World as it is. The shadow part of the World is not outside of me. We are all connected to it. We have to face it so we can transcend it to something better… we have to know ourselves And know our enemies in order to win… life, individually. Thank you for providing your years of experience and wisdom Roberts! I will use it to navigate this World so I don’t get deceived.
It's not bragging if it's true! Love your books. If you're not paying attention to this man you're basically handicapping yourself in this thing called life.
Once you seen how glaringly obvious everyone’s egos are you will never look back
Personally I'm not a fan of using power to benefit myself but I understand that it isn't the game others play either subconsciously or Consciously.
The book has helped me understand WHEN someone is using power so that I may plan/strategize accordingly.
When he says "this is defense" is certainly hitting the nail on the head.
As a result, I've made good friend with distance. And enemies whom need more distance.
We love Robert Green.
I love you Robert.
The problem is that when these laws are not applied properly and appropriately especially by the right individuals then they can be very dangerous because for example when one of those laws that you just spoke of was enacted by my own father in keeping us dependent on him well then he did us a disservice by delaying our growth and are Independence and are Reliance on ourselves and in a sense we grew to hate him for it or maybe hate is rather a strong word but resent him for it
There is a lot of Grey in this Black and White thinking nowadays world. This is truly a great book. Worth many reads.
Also, how do you work power and people actually being grateful to you and loving you because the twist is I know how to be powerful or manipulate but I want and I also want others with me I enjoy having trust, teamwork, collaboration, fostering the desire to please the other, and do your bestI definitely don’t wanna fall. Just manipulating with power.
Rereading this right now and I can't thank you enough Mr Robert 😊
I am at 46th law... Thank you for writing this book...
Thanks for this video. I love self growth and I also like the book, change your thoughts change your life by Wayne Dwyer. I think from your video I’m going to like your book
