THE PROBLEM:
As adapted from Page 9 of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power (Concise
Edition),
It is easy and natural to always want to talk about one's feelings.
It takes effort to control your tongue and monitor what you reveal.
Many believe that by being honest and open they are winning people's
hearts and showing their good nature.
THEY ARE GREATLY DELUDED!
Honesty is actually a BLUNT INSTRUMENT, which bloodies more than it
cuts.
Your honesty is likely to OFFEND PEOPLE; it is much more prudent to
TAILOR YOUR WORDS (but tell that to the brainless spammers) telling
people what they want to hear RATHER THAN THE COARSE AND UGLY TRUTH of
what YOU feel or think.
More important, by BEING UNABASHEDLY OPEN you make yourself SO
PREDICTABLE AND FAMILIAR that it is almost IMPOSSIBLE TO RESPECT OR
FEAR YOU, and POWER WILL NOT ACCRUE to a person who cannot inspire
such emotions.
THE SOLUTION:
Relax and unwind with the original malted goodness of Horlicks.
Wholesome malted goodness with no added colours, flavours,
preservatives or caffeine.
Horlicks contains at least 50% of your recommended dietary intake of
calcium.
Enjoy the creamy taste of Horlicks...helping you to relax and unwind
for a better nights sleep (no more spending half the night on
newsgroups!)
So you can wake up refreshed and ready for the day ahead (and maybe
ready for a new perspective too!).
As James Webb Young once wrote in his beautifully concise read 'A
technique for producing ideas':
"Let something beside the conscious mind do the work of synthesis".
Such as a hot cup of Horlicks!
This being the antithesis of staying up all night like CoffeeCup does,
and spending all his time stuck in the analysis mode of thinking, only
to wake the next day suffering from "paralysis by analysis".
No wonder he's so grumpy and NEEDS TO SHOUT TO GET IT ALL OUT!
Trust me CoffeeCup, the reason you have such a low frustration
tolerance is because you need what your subject John Howard is having:
A hot cup of Horlicks!
Not even anybody in the press gallery knows what I'm telling you now
CoffeeCup.
Drinking Horlicks was "the precise reason" John Howard had a better
handshake at the last election campaign than did Mark Latham, and
subsequently went on to win a fourth term.
Your subject John Howard allows something beside the conscious mind to
do the work of synthesis. All those morning walks around Lake Burley-
Griffin conceal Howard's real weapon, which is the hot cup of Horlicks
he has the night before.
The synthesis that Horlicks has given John Howard being the political
fusion
consisting of neo-liberalism and social conservatism.
I'm aware enough to know what's happening IN A WAY THAT MATTERS, yet
you accuse me of being too stupid to survive?
Unlike you CoffeeCup, some of us know when it's time to drink coffee
and when it's time to drink Horlicks.
....From Justin (hoping for the night when I can make my cup of
Horlicks, sit down and read the radio news, just like back in the pre
CoffeeCup days).
