Law 10: Infection: Avoid the Unhappy and Unlucky!

By -
You can die from someone else’s misery – emotional states are as infectious as disease. You may feel you are helping the drowning man but you are only precipitating your own disaster. The unfortunate sometimes draw misfortune on themselves; they will also draw it on you. Associate with the happy and fortunate instead. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 9: Win through your Actions, Never through Argument!

By -
Any momentary triumph you think gained through argument is really a Pyrrhic victory: The resentment and ill will you stir up is stronger and lasts longer than any momentary change of opinion. It is much more powerful to get others to agree with you through your actions, without saying a word. Demonstrate, do not explicate. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 8: Make other People come to you – use Bait if Necessary!

By -
When you force the other person to act, you are the one in control. It is always better to make your opponent come to you, abandoning his own plans in the process. Lure him with fabulous gains – then attack. You hold the cards. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 7: Get others to do the Work for you, but Always Take the Credit!

By -
Use the wisdom, knowledge, and legwork of other people to further your own cause. Not only will such assistance save you valuable time and energy, it will give you a godlike aura of efficiency and speed. I the end your helpers will be forgotten and you will be remembered. Never do yourself what others can do for you.

Law 6: Court Attention at all Cost!

By -
Everything is judged by its appearance; what is unseen counts for nothing. Never let yourself get lost in the crowd, then, or buried in oblivion. Stand out. Be conspicuous, at all cost. Make yourself a magnet of attention by appearing larger, more colorful, more mysterious, than the bland and timid masses. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 5: So Much Depends on Reputation- guard it with your life!

By -
Reputation is the cornerstone of power. Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once you slip, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides. Make your reputation unassailable. Always be alert to potential attacks and thwart them before they happen. Meanwhile, learn to destroy your enemies by opening holes in their own reputations. Then stand aside and let public opinion hang them. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 4: Always Say Less than Necessary!

By -
When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. Even if you are saying something banal, it will seem original if you make it vague, open-ended, and sphinxlike. Powerful people impress and intimidate by saying less. The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 3: Conceal your Intentions!

By -
Keep people off-balance and in the dark by never revealing the purpose behind your actions. If they have no clue what you are up to, they cannot prepare a defense. Guide them far enough down the wrong path, envelope them in enough smoke, and by the time they realize your intentions, it will be too late. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 2: Never put too Much Trust in Friends. Learn how to use Enemies!

By -
Be wary of friends-they will betray you more quickly, for they are easily aroused to envy. They also become spoiled and tyrannical. But hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more to prove. In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies. If you have no enemies, find a way to make them. By Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Law 1: Never Outshine the Master!

By -
Always make those above you feel comfortably superior. In your desire to please or impress them, do not go too far in displaying your talents or you might accomplish the opposite – inspire fear and insecurity. Make your masters appear more brilliant than they are and you will attain the heights of power. by Robert Greene and Joost Elffers

Atta Mills on concerns of Ghanaians!

By -
“Our politics will not focus on power and privilege. On the contrary we will not forget the concerns of the Ghanaian people who want to see an improvement in their living conditions. Willingness to put personal advantage aside will therefore be one of the key demands on those who will serve in the Atta Mills government. Honesty, fairness, compassion and sincerity will be the hallmark of my administration. I have no wish to carry out political vendetta of any kind”.

Atta Mills on unity!

By -
“As a people, our greatest achievements have come when we have lived up to the ideals that unite rather than divide us and have attached ourselves to a common sense purpose. Let this day not just see us enjoying just the holiday part of it; let us find time to reflect on the way forward as we strive to build a Better Ghana. We must reflect on the legacies that our forebears bequeathed to us; consider what we have added to that legacy, and commit ourselves to leaving a solid legacy for the generations after us.”

Atta Mills on settling political score!

By -
“I will not condone actions that will pitch one citizen against the other as a way of settling political scores. That is unacceptable and will not be the Ghanaian way of doing things. The Ghanaian way should be that, under the Rule of Law, and with the benchmark of due process, any violations of the laws of Ghana will be addressed in the manner that is fair, balanced, and right in the sight of God.”

Atta Mills on arms and conflicts!

By -
“As a nation, we consider a strong and effective Arms Trade Treaty an indispensable step in preventing the flow of conventional arms to destinations where they are likely to wreak havoc and mayhem by either fuelling conflict and undermining both national and regional peace, security and development or exacerbating tensions that in many instances could likely create the conditions that necessitate the deployment of international peacekeepers in the first place.”

Extraordinary leaders!

By -
Great leaders are extraordinary but were they born that way? No. I think they started out as ordinary people and made cumulative choices (perspectives to take, lessons to learn paths to take etc) that over time snowballed into the realm of "extraordinariness". The person also may have had opportunities that other leaders did not have. But not everyone can lead and certainly not all leaders can be great leaders. Therefore, it is possible that "great leaders" have some "inherent extraordinariness" in them that just wasn't mature enough in their ordinary days and simply got developed over the course of their "ascent to greatness". If everyone can be a great leader then it is a major indictment for all ordinary and lousy leaders out there. Are they just lazy or did they lack opportunities to develop the greatness in them? Is ordinary the "normal" or is it the "abnormal"? Great Leaders must be EXTRA- ordinary and move awa...

The Parachutes!

By -
An airplane was about to crash; there were 5 passengers on board, but only 4 parachutes. The first passenger said, "I am Asamoah Djan, the best Ghanaian football player, the Blackstar need me, I can't afford to die." So he took the first pack and left the plane. The second passenger, Nana Konado said, "I am the wife of the former Ghanaian President, and a potential future president. I am the smartest woman in Ghanaian history, so Ghanaian people don't want me to die." She took the second pack and jumped out of the plane. The third passenger, K. Pratt Jnr , said, "I'm the Editor of the insight newspaper and an adviser to the President of Ghana". I'm the best adviser you can ever see. The country needs my advice. So he grabbed the pack next to him and jumped. The fourth passenger, President J. A. Kufuor , said to the fifth passenger, a 10-year-old schoolgirl, "I have lived a full life, and served my country well, I will sacri...

Gov’t Intervenes As Court Orders Auctioning Of GHANASCO Cars

By -
Image
The Northern Regional Director of Education, Mohammed Haroon Cambodia has confirmed government will be paying a staggering GHC400,000 as judgment debt to a private citizen in order to stop the auctioning of vehicles belonging to the Ghana Senior High School in Tamale. Government is offering the bailout following a chronic transport difficulty that has hit the school for the last two years after a court order impounded the only bus for students and a brand new official pickup vehicle. Two Nissan patrol vehicles belonging to the Education directorate were also taken by the court. The vehicles were confiscated to be auctioned to pay up salary arrears of a former headmaster of the school who accused the school and education service of injustices including inappropriate dismissal and concealing his promotion letter. Late Lionel Mahama was dismissed as headmaster of the school in 1997. His salary was blocked for years until a CHRAJ ruled in his favor and ordered his reinstateme...
