This is one of the greatest books of all time. If you haven’t read @robertgreeneofficial’s 48 Laws of Power, you must. You can get yours from @paintedporchbookshop.
Thank you to everyone who supported the new book—it means so much to me. I distinctly remember telling my publisher that I thought this one would be the hardest sell (a book about justice???) but it debuted at #1 on the New York Times list! Now back to work.

Total surprise. I told my publisher five years ago when I started the series that this one would be the toughest sell. I’ll take it as a sign of encouragement about the world that a book about justice could debut at #1 NYT. So grateful to everyone for the support. Also congratulations in advance to @jamesclear for reclaiming it next week, I’m sure 🙂

Have you heard this story about Hemingway? From my conversation with @chriswillx on @modernwisdomlife
Once you’re lucky, twice you’re good.
Once you’re lucky, twice you’re good.
If I was to sum up the single biggest problem of senior leadership in the Information Age, it’s a lack of reflection. Solitude allows you to reflect while others are reacting. We need solitude to refocus on prospective decision-making, rather than just reacting to problems as they arise. You have some external stimulus, then you go back to your experience, your education, and you see what needs to be done.” — General James Mattis
