Laws of Power- The Power of Saying Less

  • Resumen

  • *"Always Say Less Than Necessary"*


    *Explanation* :

    This law is about the power of silence. Sometimes, when you talk too much, you give away too much information. This can weaken your position, as others might use your words against you or take advantage of the extra details you’ve shared.

    In many situations, saying less can be more powerful. When you speak less, you keep people guessing about your true thoughts and intentions. People will also start to respect your words more because you don’t speak unnecessarily.


    Imagine you are in a class where there's a pop quiz, and you knows the answers to the questions. If you start talking too much to your classmates about the answers, it could make them suspicious. They might ask you how you knows, and by talking more, you could end up revealing too much, which could make the teacher aware. If you simply stays quiet and focuses on your quiz, your actions speak louder than words, and you have the chance to do well without drawing attention to yourself.


    *Another Example* :

    Think about a situation in a video game where a player keeps talking about every strategy and move they’re planning to make. The more they talk, the more their opponent knows and can counter their moves. But if the player remains silent and lets their actions show their plans, the opponent will have a harder time figuring out what’s going on.


    Real-life Example:

    Let’s say you're in a school competition, and you’re trying to impress your teacher. If you start talking too much about how good you are, how you prepared, and how you think you will win, you might sound arrogant, and people might not take you seriously. But if you stay calm and just show your work, people will see your effort and respect you more for it.


    *Simple takeaway:*

    Sometimes, the less you say, the more powerful you appear. Talking too much can make you seem uncertain or give away your strategy. When you say less, people pay more attention to what you *do*, not just what you *say*.


    Imagine you’re playing a board game with friends. If you keep saying, "I’m going to win this game for sure" or "I’m really good at this game," your friends might start to focus on you more and try to stop you. But if you stay quiet and just play your best, they might not realize how good you are, and you can surprise them by winning.


    This law teaches you that sometimes saying less is more powerful than talking too much. You don’t always need to explain everything. Let your actions speak for themselves!
