Use absence to increase respect and honor from "summary" of Concise 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene,Joost Elffers
The key to increasing respect and honor lies in the strategic use of absence. By making yourself scarce, you create an aura of mystery and importance. People will wonder where you are, what you are doing, and why you are not readily available. This curiosity will elevate your status in their eyes. Absence also serves to make the heart grow fonder. When you are constantly around, people may take you for granted. However, by withdrawing from time to time, you make them appreciate your presence more. They will value the time they get to spend with you and hold you in high regard. Furthermore, absence can be a powerful tool for manipulation. By staying out of sight, you can control the narrative and shape how others perceive you. You can cultivate an air of superiority and make people come to you, seeking your attention and approval. This dynamic gives you the upper hand in any interaction. In a world where everyone is constantly vying for attention, being absent sets you apart from the crowd. It signals that you are not desperate for validation or approval. Instead, you exude confidence and self-assurance, qualities that command respect and honor from those around you.- Using absence to increase respect and honor requires a delicate balance. You must know when to retreat and when to reemerge. Too much absence can lead to isolation and alienation, while too little can diminish the impact of your presence. By mastering the art of strategic absence, you can elevate your status and influence in any social or professional setting.
