#12 The Essence of Power is the Ability to Keep the Initiative, to Get Others to React to Your Moves. (Robert Greene)

No matter where you live in the world you must learn how to deal with, and how to influence power. So as you and I are building our mastery - we must learn how to keep the initiative, to get others to react to our moves, to keep our opponents and those around us on the defensive. If you want to win, in any game you choose to play in life - this episode is for you. When you make other people come to you, you suddenly become the one controlling the situation. And the one who has control has power. Two things must happen to place you in this position: You yourself must learn to master your emotions, and never to be influenced by anger; meanwhile, however, you must play on people’s natural tendency to react angrily when pushed and baited.
