Make your accomplishments seem effortless to gain admiration and respect from "summary" of The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene
To impress people with the magnitude of your accomplishments is to risk stirring up resentment rather than admiration. Work and struggle are not impressive, even if they are admirable. The better way is to "appear" to work effortlessly. This is not to say that you should not work hard or even suffer to achieve your goals. It is all about the appearance you present to the world. People tend to believe the surface is the essence, rather than delving deep into the complexities of your effort. By making your labors seem effortless, you create the illusion of power. It is a psychological effect that you need to master to gain respect and admiration. The key is not to let others see the labor and effort that goes into your achievements. The appearance of effort suggests that you are trying too hard, that you are not in complete control. This can lead to doubt and suspicion from those around you. On the other hand, making everything look effortless conveys a sense of calm and self-assurance. People are naturally drawn to those who seem to have it all together without breaking a sweat. They want to be associated with success and ease, not with struggle and strain. When you make your accomplishments seem effortless, you create an aura of invincibility. You become like a force of nature, moving through the world with grace and ease. This is the kind of power that attracts respect and admiration. People will want to be around you, to learn from you, to bask in the glow of your success. They will see you as a master of your craft, a person who has achieved a level of excellence that few can match. In the end, it is not about what you do but how you do it. By making your accomplishments seem effortless, you set yourself apart from the crowd. You become a symbol of power and success, someone who is worthy of admiration and respect. It is a subtle but potent strategy that can elevate you to great heights in the eyes of others. So, strive to make everything you do appear easy and natural, and you will reap the rewards of admiration and respect.
