The Danger Of Implementing Changes.

The Danger Of Implementing Changes.

There's nothing more difficult, nor with doubtful success, nor dangerous than to implement changes that affect the customs and traditions of the people.

  • The prince who takes power and tries to implement necessary changes will have as fierce enemies the beneficiaries of the old system and timid defenders who will benefit from the new.
  • When opponents have the opportunity to attack the prince's set of measures, they do so like fanatics.

KEY INSIGHT: If the leader's not careful when wielding that double-edged sword, they could end up getting hurt. Thus, know very well what you're doing.
