Understand: we are all too afraid of offending people, of stirring up conflict, of standing out from the crowd, of taking bold action- from a primitive fear of nature, to generalized anxiety abt the future, to the fearful attitude tht now dominate us. Productive adults we r called upon to finally overcome this downward trend & to evolve beyond our fears.
Trying so hard to please people can actually push them away - it is hard to respect someone who has such an ingratiating attitude.
Observing The 50th Law creates the opposite dynaminc - it opens possibilities, brings freedom of action, and helps create a forward momentum in life.
This is Life, New & Strange; Strange because we fear it; New, because we have kept our eyes turned from it.... Now, I understand why most of my friends & superiors see strange in my ideas; they did not observe The 50th Law; because they FEAR. They belongs to the downward trend for being an unproductive adults who we need to move forward with; they should be eliminate.
{Reality is my drug. The more I have of it, the more power I get and the higher I feel. ~ Famous Rapper; 50 Cent}
Ex- Hustler: Rapper 50 Cent >
"One day he was discussing the troublesome aspects of the game with an older hustler named Truth, who told him something he would never forget. Don't complain about the difficult circumtances. In fact, the hard life of these streets ia a blessing if you know what you're doing. Because it is such a dangerous world, a hustler has to focus intensely on what's going around him. He has to feel for the streets - who's trouble, where there might be some new opportunity.
He has to see through all the bullshit people throw at him - their games, their lousy ideas. He has to look at himself, see his own limitations and stupidity. All of this sharpens the eye to a razor's edge, making a keen observer of everything. That's his power.
The greatest danger we face, is not the police or some nasty rival. It's the mind going soft. Lose your grip on reality on these streets and you might as well kill yourself".
Understand: you need this code even more. Your world seems cozier and less violent, less immediately dangerous. It makes you wander and your eyes mist over with dreams. The competitive dynamic (the streets, the business world) is in fact the same, but your apparently comfortable environment makes it harder for you to see it. Reality has its own power - you can turn your back on it, but it will find you in the end, and your inability to cope with it will be your ruin.
Now is the time to stop drifting and wake up - to assess yourself, the people around you, and the direction in which you are headed in as cold and brutal a light as possible. Without fear.
Know the other, know yourself, and the victory will not be at risk; know the ground, know the natural conditions, and the victory will be total.
~ Sun Tzu
When myself or certain people kept silent; it means they are observing you, they are collecting details of your strenght & weaknesses, and they are understanding the environment.
