    We are all born unique, with certain primal inclinations that draw us to certain experiences and away from others. As these forces move us here or there, they influence the development of our minds in very particular ways.

    #2

    The author was searching and exploring, and he was constantly writing. He met a man named Joost Elffers in Italy who asked him if he had any ideas for a book. He suddenly had the idea for his first book, The 48 Laws of Power, which would eventually become a success.

    #3

    You possess an inner force that seeks to guide you toward your Life’s Task. This force was clear to you in childhood, but as you listen to parents and peers, to the daily anxieties that wear away at you, it tends to fade.

    Marie Curie, the future discoverer of radium, was four years old when she entered her father’s laboratory and stood transfixed before a glass case that contained all kinds of laboratory instruments for chemistry and physics experiments.

    #5

    The importance of recognizing your early inclinations is that they are clear indications of an attraction that is not infected by the desires of other people. They are not something embedded in you by your parents, but rather something deeper.

    #6

    As you become more sophisticated, you often lose touch with your primal core, which is the source of your power and future. You must dig for signs of such inclinations in your earliest years.

    #7

    Everett’s interest in the Other stems from his childhood fascination with the Mexican culture around him. He immersed himself in the language and culture, which transformed into a lifelong interest in the Other.

    #8

    You must think in the following way when dealing with your career: You are not tied to a particular position, and your loyalty is not to a career or a company. You are committed to your Life's Task, which is to give it full expression.

    #9

    The pursuit of money and status can provide us with motivation and focus. But in the long run, this philosophy often yields the most impractical of results. We all know the effects of hyperintention: If we want and need desperately to sleep, we are less likely to fall asleep.

    V. S. Ramachandran, a professor at the University of California at San Diego, was fascinated by the brain and its disorders. He conducted experiments on phantom limb patients, which led to some exciting discoveries about the brain itself.

    Coltrane, a saxophonist, was born in North Carolina and felt different and strange as a young boy. He began to play the saxophone with such intensity that he transformed himself into one of the greatest jazz artists of his era.

    #12

    Masters are one of a kind. They are unique, and they embraced what made them different. They suffered for it, but they never compromised on what made them unique.

    #13

    When an inclination becomes clear through a particular activity that brings with it a feeling of heightened power, it is often because that activity allows you to express yourself in a deep way.

    #14

    When you face your limitations, you are motivated to respond in some way that is creative. And as it was for Temple Grandin, it may be in a way that no one else has done or even thought of before.

    #15

    #16

    A false path in life is generally something we are attracted to for the wrong reasons - money, fame, attention, and so on. If it is attention we need, we often experience a kind of emptiness inside that we are hoping to fill with the false love of public approval.

    #17
