I animated my summary of The 50th Law by Robert Greene.
On top of my personal story of facing my fears & anxiety I share my thoughts on all chapters in this incredible, life-changing book. I don’t know where I would be without it.
On Intense Realism,
We live in an age of generalized anxiety. We fear not, if we’ll survive the next attack from an enemy tribe, if we’ll gather and hunt enough natural resources to sustain ourselves or if we’ll find shelter and warmth nearby a fireplace in a cave. While the intensity of the dangers we face lessened throughout human evolution, our sense of fear, an emotion that kept us alive, manifested in a different form, one that greatly limits our potential and our worries dramatically grew in number.
Instead of real threats, we began to fear the loss of material wealth, worry about our status in society, about what the unknown future will bring, about illness and growing old, things as petty and nonessential as the uneducated opinions of people we personally dislike. Not until we have a near death experience or almost lose one of our loved ones are we reminded of what truly matters. And it’s at this point, when we live through a tragedy, that we are aware, that we see the world through our heart… for a couple of days, maybe even weeks, until we forget and get sucked back into focusing on our next promotion, social acceptance and superficial qualities.
See the reality of the world you live in. Question the status quo. Knowledge is power. The more you obtain of it the better off you are. Remind yourself of what’s important to you and what isn’t constantly. We’ve been wired in a way that makes us pay more attention to the negative and black out the positive. You’re aware of this and you don’t let yourself be seduced by comfortable lies, constant outrage and wishful thinking.
Key to living fearless / facing your fears (there’s no difference, it’s really just semantics) is knowing your environment like the back of your hand.
On Mortality,
We are going to die. There is no way around it. You fear death, because you fear life. If you were living life to the fullest, you’d be prepared to die at any moment. Like let’s imagine for a second, this was our final destination, I know it’s a scary thought, but bear with me. If we asked ourselves right now “Did I truly live the life I wanted and make the most out of it?” The answer for most of us is “No, not really.”, but here’s the positive. It’s not too late for us, we’re very fortunate to have opportunities that our ancestors couldn’t even dream up. You can start right now and if you’ve already started, you can keep going. Every morning you wake up is a blessing. You might not see that, because you hate your job, I’ve been there, but that doesn’t mean you hate life. Your job is the problem. It’s designed to waste your life, so the people you’re working for live all the memories & stories that you deserve. You want a reason to subscribe? I’ll go hard on this subject very soon, on how to make the system work for you, not the other fucking way around.
Live an extraordinary life. Your days are numbered. You won’t get another chance. This is what you’ve got. You can play and win the game with the hand you’ve been dealt. It’s up to you how well you execute, no matter the circumstances you were born in. You might have to work harder than everybody else in order for it to pay off in the end, but you can’t expect anything, if you waste your time. Eventually, every second you chose to sacrifice for immediate gratification will accumulate and hit you hard. Value your time, invest it intelligently, know who to have time for and how much, appreciate every moment and you will see positive results. If you fuck up today, start again tomorrow. Not new year’s eve, but the second you wake up, it’s on. Break the devil’s cycle, before you become entrenched in it.
Remember, life is precious, because it ends.

I love that!!
@@diogeneslantern18 Disrupt the pattern, avoid the loop! You can rewire you brain, though it does usually take some time.
i went on a walk listening to this and ended up walking to the library for this book. great content!
Thank you, just found my 50th sign to get this book
great brother

dude i fucking love you.
You're seriously one of the single handed most influential people I've ever met,
I wish you nothing but the best.
I watch your videos everyday and I'm learning so much,
Please do not stop.
It's an honor. Thank you!
TVBUU I do the same, I think the same. He is my fucking hero.
I came upon this channel exactly 1 year ago today & this was the 1st video I watched multiple times absorbing the information daily until it became apart of my Mental DNA. I had already read the 50th Law many times B4, but something about this video made me look at myself & the book differently. I read it again & wrote down what I was doing wrong & right &improved my life by making Nihil Timendum Est my mantra too. Now I'm about to buy a house. I have a new car & I'm just a month away from getting my business up &running so I can eventually leave my job & work for myself for the rest of my Life. I Don't Pity Myself Anymore. Thanx for this video & all of the other ones that you use to break these very important books down. 1 Love from Harlem IntheBuildn. Peace!
This is more than a summary, you add a whole new dimension to the books you go over. Excellent videos!!!
Illacertus, I just want to say thanks for this video. The first part of the video was so uncomfortable for me because I identified so deeply with it. As a young man still trying to figure things out and do right by me, it's good to get some direction and reassurance every now and then. I really appreciate your work. Looking forward to all your future pieces. Thanks again.
Brother, that was absolutely GREAT.

Dear fearless warriors,
When I told a friend of mine how The 50th Law has changed my life forever, he said *"that book sounds like cocaine"* and he was right, in 50's own words *"Reality is my drug. The more I have of it, the more power I get and the higher I feel."*
And the reality is, among a wide array of very pleasant truths, that we are going to die one day. There is just no way around it. We fear death, because we fear life. If we were living life to the fullest, we would be prepared to die at any moment. My hopes are that you will develop a fearless sense of urgency. That you will see death in another light - not as the enemy, but as the inevitable outcome that drives us to make the most of every opportunity. *Life is precious, because it ends.*

+illacertus mad respect brotha
mate, when will you open up patron? I would really like to support you!
Thank you, Vlad. I respect that. I thought about delaying opening my patreon account until I reach 100'000 subscribers, but I'm conflicted, since having financial support from loyal subscribers such as yourself would no doubt boost my productivity. I haven't yet made my mind up on this. I have, however, added a paypal donation button at the bottom of illacertus.com two weeks ago, if you care to check it out. Again, many thanks for the support!
I had no idea. Expect a surprise this evening :)
Please contact me at ewright53212@yahoo.com. ...I have something I would like to run past you...very Important
20:00 yes, 50 Cent became an orphan, but before that he had a mother who instilled all the self-confidence in him that many ppl can only dream of having been taught...
mssummerrose1 elaborate please
yes please tell me more !!
His mom died when he was 8 or 9
Teach yourself
@@jaeaguilar6356 his mother told him to never let anybody take his talents away... also the dog psychologist Cesar Millan was taught by his mother that he could be anything he wanted to be when he asked her if he could be the most famous dog trainer in the world... to believe in yourself, your talents, that you can achieve your dreams and that you are worth it is the most important ingredient for a happy, fulfilled life and your success...
Plus 50 cent learned the drug dealer business from his mom, who was very successful in it... so his own success had a good foundation, it didn't come out of the blue...
19:58 therefore the statement here "no matter what environment you were brought up in" is only half true, because it's these beliefs you are instilled, or your belief in sth that you tell yourself, what make up your life and success...
Thank you for all the work you've put into your channel over these years.
This video in particular is very inspirational for me and I truly connect with what you're saying.
As a 23 year old University student facing the harsh realities of life, there were so many times I wanted to give up on everything...
But somehow with the help and support of people like you, I managed to carry on.
As you said: "I can, I will and I must! "
May God bless you my friend.
dude this is the first comment i have posted in youtube and the way u said "FEAR NOTHING" just gave me goosebumps and a new perspective ,sick narration .I wonder if u have another channel or you stopped making videos ?
would love to hear from u
Thank God Theres people like you that,when sometimes I fuck up and forget this shit and what am I doing,they come to remember me this shit.Thank you
Thank you... I started listening to your content and was so engaged by your powerful messages that this is now the fourth concurrent video I’ve watched with complete focus. Your content has reminded me of the person I was 10½-11 years ago before being in a car accident that caused many injuries which include co-morbid multiple severe spinal cord injuries in separate locations leaving me mostly wheelchair bound.
I read the book myself, I was shocked at the wealth of information in it too. Hearing your summary also helps it stick, thanks!
I truly am in tears. I just left my gov job (I was there for 10 years). I am scared, but I DO believe in myself. Your vid reminded me of why I left!!!!
Thank you for sharing.
Louise Emanuel hey, how has everything been ?
You can do it! Stay strong
This is a masterpiece...
can't pay u for it, but very grateful...hope u stay around for long time...
8:40 "your first 18-24 years, you're a leaf in the fucking wind"... This hit me so hard. i'm 23 and I wish I truly knew that 4 years when I started college, they were good 4 years don't get me wrong, but now i'm more aware of what opportunities I missed that could give me more grip & control over my life today.. but it doesn't matter now, I got a plan thanks to people like you and "FightMediocrity" channel.
@illacertus... you should be taught in schools seriously. the value of this 24min video beats the 12 years I spent at school twice over, even more...
Keep it up man,(3:08) and know you're changing people's course in life.. my course at least..
All the best
PermaFrost you sound like you've seen the world bruv, care to share some of those xperiences? Plis
illacertus - you complete Boss. Keep doing this. This type of work gives me faith in humanity. Your work illuminates an otherwise dark and lonely world for special, critical thinkers everywhere that are grappling with rejection and dismissal, and aloneness. Floating in a sea of 8-figure-view videos that celebrate superficiality and promote apathy, your work alone justifies youtube's existence. Keep going! This is an incredibly powerful social service you are providing. Respect.
I just got this book along with the 48 powers of law today. So fortunate that I coincidentlty look to see and find your summary videos uploaded at the same time, they are amazing. 16 years old and I already know these books and your accompanying videos will change my outlook on life. Thank you.
I envy how far you already are for your age! Thank you very much Mardin.
How'd it go for Ya mate? Staying strong?
Robert Greene is by far my most favorite author, and this book was the first one that changed my life too.
Tricia Quỳnh Chi Nguyen so is "the 50th law" the same book as the 48th law???
the fastest 24mins i've ever spent...i'm buying the book got dammit!
+viwe bhashe I'm honored. Thank you, mate!
50th Law and Mastery are ordered.great videos man brilliant simplified analogies...
I am inspired. I've been suffering for an injury for 4 some months now... I can't drive, meet friends, hike, workout, or otherwise live. Yet I'm running my business. In the past week I've doubled my income. I might even triple it or quadruple it. I will heal fully. I'm just waiting to get my last MRI. I miss life, and I hate how I complained about the most simple if things- it is an honor to be rejected by a woman, or to get nervous making new friends, or climb a mountain, or drive, or eat supper with friends, and road trip. I just want to be able to live- even if that means a bit of pain, cuz it's all about choosing what pain you can handle. when I heal my life will be so different... So grateful
Truth is like an ambulance siren: everyone recognizes it when it's heard, whether we wish to acknowledge it's presence or not. The sirens went off in my head after hearing this presentation and I thank you for it.
+Dwayne Smith Love it!
"Your job is the problem it's designed to waste your life, so the people you're working for live all the memories and stories you deserve" stop thinking tomorrow start thinking now...illacertus has a habit of never keeping his views unsatisfied with the content he gives always telling it how it should be told this guy is a genius
how do you only have 37k subscribers? truly a gem of a channel👌
Starmaker0.0 bell curve
I love your videos. This philosophy should be mandatory in schools 😁 keep doing what you're doing man. You inspire me 👍
Your channel changed my life. It taught me things that I would have never known. It's boosted my intelligence, my confidence, my understanding of humans, and my understanding of the Self. Simply put, thank you.
"Finally has that final moment of awkening. Every chapter, every line, everyone quote resonated so deeply with me, I felt incredible." That's exactly how I feel about your work and you as I've sat here and watched every video up to this point from the beginning.
Thank you for reminding me who I am and what I'm capable of. The material you've brought forth have undoubtedly helped many as well as myself. I can't explain how much of an effect you've had on my attitude towards everything. Thank you again greatly
I'm so speechless at every single video I watch from your channel. Not noticing that sometimes, my tears are already falling because of happiness. Continue creating more awesome videos! I'll never forget this channel. Thank you. :)
These videos really helped me through the brain numbing routine of high school. So let me say this: Thank you illacertus. You saved me.
This just fuelled me up 🙌🏽
Probably one of the best topics and from what I've seen from the past couple videos,best channels on youtube.
"I can, I will, I must" -ET
love your content bro, keep doing your thing.. love the quotes too! You bringing it all together
Thank you so much for all the work you've done. I've learned a lot about myself and what I can work on. I started off with your 48 Laws of Power Playlist and then saw this video. Based off what you've said I immediately bought and just finished 50th Law just to rewatch your summary again here. Your channel is so underrated and I hope that you get more quality subscribers soon.
This book really changed my life. Robert Greene is a Living Legend
50 cent is our modern Day Napoleon Bornaparte
"How to make the system work for you".... I like that
Your channel is part of what inspires me these days. Thank you for taking your time doing this!
I’m at 1:06 studying computer science and I swear it like he wrote this narrating my life.
You just earned my subscription sir.
Awesome Video Man..
they way you describe and narrate its Outstanding.
Thanks for making these videos (not just this one but all) and helping us all. Your videos are more than appreciated.
this was beautiful brother! you won me had to subscribe!
Impeccable.
This book is perfect during this year of covid19 if read this book last 2020 and i swear its the best, the book that makes you tough as nails, fearless, and also a better business person. Ive read a lot of self help books and business books and this one is a combination of both with a plus on being fearless. This book is a must have.
I definitely have to discipline myself if I wanna see changes!
Thanks a lot for making this, very powerfull!
I know this video is old, and I don't know if this will be read, but I really enjoy your stuff. I've read "The 48 Laws of Power". I will definitely get the others and not just read, but study them thoroughly. Thanks again.
Seriously man. I uttered the word "Nihil Timendum Est" at the exact moment you said that on the ending of the video. i dont know how to explain it but i felt at that time that my thoughts have been in unison with yours. thank you.
This guy is life changing ! The way he speaks just motivates you to become the best version of your self. What a guy!!
Thank you for drawing pictures in your videos, I have ADHD so it calms me down and helps me retain more information.
*Mind Blown* I always thought it was only me that felt this way. Hearing you explain it all clicked, For whatever its worth, THANK YOU. You are doing some really good shit man. Good vibes.
i was wondering if i was going to sleep or play one mission in GTA 5 and your start talking about video games... this video is a damn massage.
This shook me... wow, Id love to sit a talk to you. This is amazing.
Good one dude! I saved this in my philosophy playlist.
+MrRodQ Humbled.
Narrator sounds like Patrick Bet-David of Valuetainment. That was a powerful 24 minutes. Great job!
This is by far your best piece of content, brother
“Conquering the world as Napoleon Bonaparte” sounds like an Age of Empires 3 reference. Great video bro
Bro we love u please start posting again ik you are building your and completing your goals but u should post and share your wisdom
I just have to say:
Where the hell have you been all my life??? You give me hope for the future. Thank you. You're an amazing person and have blessed many with your giving of yourself. You are a rich man, indeed.
I love this. The accent too.
Thank you I really needed to hear this. 2023 and it feels like you uploaded it today.
I have listened, I am learning, I'm still thinking and growing. Thank you for this video!
Awesome commentary and not boring. Very helpful. Funny thing is we know most of these things we have to do to succeed , we just needed reassurance every now and then.
Amazing! (As always) I can especially relate with Chapter 10 and 5. This video definitely ranks in my top 3 favourites for this channel. Just waiting for more content now- thank you! :)
this video made me cry so glad people like you exist.
Words can't even describe how great and insightful your videos are. Thank you for making them!
One of the best channels I have stumbled upon ever! I hope you get the exposure you deserve soon :)
Keep it up.
Thank you, mate.
The first part literally made me cry
Too much of resemblems..
Boldness & fearlessness is key to overcoming anxiety. You're the courageous Saif. I don't need to tell you that. You know there's nothing stopping you, brother!
+illacertus Thank you Niccolo
Not a day passes by without watching ur videos
thank you
keep pushing bro u got this!
courageous saif get out there and do what you want ,watching is never enough
Man, through your work you saved my life. I am happy and self reliant.
I read this a while back it's always good to get the message refreshed
this book changed my life just now
Wow! Thank you. I'm reading the book. Half way through it. What you put together is brilliant! I feel the same about our educational system. I focus on educating myself on a variety of things and training my mind to think, so I can teach my children to think. Thought is the corner stone of true education. You have truly exemplified that in this beautiful creation of art, thought and insight. Thank you.
Jesus fucking christ this video is AMAZING - I literally listened to this book about 10 times - One of my top 5 if not top 3 books ever - Definitely going to watch this video several times - Tremendous work
+IHACKER316 Awesome! If I may, what are your other top 4 books? And thanks for the kind words.
+illacertus
If I had to number them
#1 Every Elliott Hulse video + Alexander Lowens books - Live my life on his principles and lessons
#2 Rocky (All of them)(I know it's not a book but the movies changed my life more than anything)
#2 Think and Grow rich
#3 50th Law
#4 Mans search for meaning
#5 The rational male
The War of Art, do the work & turning pro by Steven Pressfield were AMAZING for beating procrastination during college. However I don't think you need it - They just hit me at the perfect time and changed my life. I read them multiple times but I don't think i'll ever read them again - I no longer need motivation.
Mans search for meaning -Viktor Frankl - also hit me at the perfect time - actually put me in a bad mood for days but then I re listened to the second half and it helped a lot - his principles are timeless and will literally help me for the rest of my life - look up the video [Finding meaning in difficult times (Interview with Dr. Viktor Frankl)] - it is so applicable for today
Fear of life (and all his books) by Alexander Lowen
The rational male - Rollo Tomassi + The way of the superior man by David Deida and the book of pook are all you need in understanding women - helped me a lot - complete mind shift
Every Rocky movie (Counts as 1000 books in my opinion - all the motivation and inspiration I ever need)
Lastly Think and grow rich - basically every self development book in one - rereading right now - It is my bible and I will look at it for the rest of my life
These are what I would give my kid or recommend to anyone
+IHACKER316 Fairly interesting. Elliott's book King just came out, if you haven't checked it out yet. I've got to say I like your list & appreciate that you took your time to write it out in detail. I'm unfamiliar with Alexander Lowens - I certainly will check him out. Plus I might just need to rewatch the Rocky series. haha "Who's got the right to stop you? Nobody!"
YUP going to go buy this book today when the sun comes up. I'm going through a huge transition in my life right now and this is exactly the kind of content I've been looking for.
Thanks alot for all your vídeos,GREAT,NAH NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE
I hate my job and my income... yet I wake up 5 days a week and voluntarily continue to work there. I am insane.
rockusrock I can relate... lol
now you are aware, change something bit by bit. You will find after a year you either be promoted or working somewhere else
stasyszy I've been aware for a few years now. Unfortunately, I've fallen into what I call middle class mentality. What I mean by that is that as middle class we are taught at a very early age that once we have a "career" with steady pay and "great" benefits we are set for life and wait for retirement. Every time i take a trip anywhere, I stare at mansions, super cars and fancy establishments and wonder how did those people get there? I know the answer but I am too much of a coward to risk my "comfortable" middle class wealth.
I think once people break that mentally and learn how to stop working for money and letting your money work for you, only then they can achieve wealth and happiness.
wait for retirement? and lose the best years of your life.
happiness is bettering yourself thru experiences not materials...
Experience and start ticking things off your bucket list, no need to be drastic. Something each weekend/month you want to do/try, and you will hate your work less.
rockusrock so true
The first ten minutes is my life . I would like to give you my deepest gratitude for making this video I really needed to see this.
i enjoyed how and the way in which you added your personal anecdote to the summary of the book. what a great book it is too. Thanks for the video
Thank you for sharing this. I'm placing an order for the book right away!
Thanks for Shouting out at my country! Burkina Faso native lol
Mortality? Is the step I need to work on! The rest I already accomplished.
Thank you Brotha... I eventually came to truth by reading 50 and Greene's book. Keep it coming.
+keith bowen Likewise, thank you.
"FEAR NOTHING" - hits me hard. I think this is the best video I've watched in my history of watching youtube videos! I felt every word. How'd you do that?? Thank you. Yep. Starting today, I will definitely fear nothing!
Haha, you're awesome, Jhae. Thank you for the kind words. I tried to put myself back into the situation I was in & remembered all the anxiety, how sad I felt, how angry I got & in some cases still am about the world we live in. My aim was to capture those emotions in the recording & then draw a video that would help visualize everything. I think I'm not the only one who's gone & is going through these feelings & that's why it's so relatable. You're not alone. Plus, I love your positive attitude!
I effing Love your channel, It's awesome! keep it up
The quote about the blue flame originally came from Miles Davis bio.
You simply deserve more viewers. Every video you make is more inspiring than the last.
My Favorite Chapter was Chapter 3. Turn Shit into Sugar
50cent is Smart .
There's technical/book smart (based on the accumulation of non-practical, useless knowledge) and there's life smart. :)
He went bankrupt.
Gene Hanson look it up its to re organize your money Donald trump went bankrupt
Trey Bizz- Donald Trump has many companies. His casino went bankrupt. He restructured one business venture without affecting all of his other successful business ventures. 50 just plain went broke.
Gene Hanson if you believe he is broke your on dust buddy lmao btw he is no longer on bankruptcy. He has the number one show starz net work also doing many other shows.
I feel like your videos speak directly to the innermost part of me that I didn’t know I had, thank you for your fantastic speaking style and the cursing real catch the sincerity of your intentions
I think this is the best channel and your videos are life-changing.I hope for you the best and to jeep inspiring us.
i gotta say i never comment on youtube videos... this really hits home and i am greatful for information and the ability to always have success to achievement based information. thank god
Dope video. The 50th Law also changed my life. Such a powerful book and I would recommend it to everybody. It will put some ideas and perspectives in your mind that will change your life.
Thank you for this fast paced and great wisdom. i am buying this book through your link
I want to support what you do. thank you
You are amazing. Keep uploading such videos it helps a lot.
thanks so much. I've been feeling down lately. your videos have really helped me out.

+al schirjaev I appreciate that, truly.
I have subscribed as well as ordered his book thank you your videos are really persuasive.
Literally the best material I have consumed all year, THANK YOU!!!!
The first few minutes didn't grasp me..I was going to turn it off, but I am glad I didn't...
Amazing video, follower for some time, but you earned my subscription.
Great work, keep going!
Do not be a rebel against this world. Be the rebellion itself.
I just thought of that because of this video.
