Law 6 - Get ATTENTION at all costs! | 48 Laws of Power | Review by Flourish | #robertgreene ❣️
Sat Jan 31 2026
Why do some people seem to command attention the moment they enter a room—while others, equally capable, quietly disappear into the background?
Today, we’re breaking down Law 6 of The 48 Laws of Power:
Court Attention at All Costs.
Watch on YouTube
Robert Greene reminds us of an uncomfortable truth:
Everything is judged by its appearance. What is unseen counts for nothing.
In a crowded world, competence alone is not enough. If you are not noticed, you are not remembered—and if you are not remembered, you cannot wield influence.
This law is not about vanity. It’s about visibility as leverage.
Throughout history, power has favored those who understood how to stand apart—through mystery, symbolism, or even controversy. From royal courts to modern boardrooms, those who fade into “average” are quickly overlooked, no matter how talented they may be.
In this episode, we explore:
The hidden danger of being “average”
Why blending in feels safe—but quietly erodes your influence over time.
The strategic power of mystery
How saying less, revealing selectively, and creating intrigue keeps people watching—and wanting more.
Why negative attention can be more powerful than silence
And when controversy strengthens your position instead of destroying it.
Real-world examples from history and business
Showing how attention has always been a form of currency—long before social media existed.
This law does not ask you to be loud for the sake of noise.
It asks you to be deliberate, distinct, and impossible to ignore.
If you want to better understand how influence really works—beyond motivation and surface-level advice—subscribe and turn on notifications so you don’t miss future episodes.
By the way, Louis XIIII was also know as the Sun King, because the world evolved around him.... could history be repeating itself?
