   • Never outshine the master. Always make those above you feel comfortably superior. In your desire to please and impress them, do not go too far in displaying your talents or you might accomplish the opposite—inspire fear and insecurity.
   • Never put too much trust in friends, learn how to use enemies. Be wary of friends—they will betray you more quickly, for they are easily aroused to envy.
   • Conceal your intentions. 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.
   • Always say less than necessary. When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control.

   What if desire-as-belief were true?

   • As far as I can tell, even if desire-as-belief were true, it would appear to be synthetic rather than somehow secured by the concept of desire or meaning of ‘desire’. Relatedly, Gregory himself notes that some may react to desire-as-belief with the proverbial ‘incredulous stare’ (p. 18).
