Law #1: "Never Outshine the Master."
This law suggests that it is important to avoid showing up or surpassing one's superiors in any way that could make them feel insecure or threatened. The idea is that by making your superiors feel respected and valued, they will be more likely to support and promote you.
However, if you make them feel inferior, they may become resentful and try to undermine you. Therefore, it is essential to be mindful of how you present yourself and to always show deference and respect to those above you in the hierarchy.
