In 1645, Miyamoto Musashi, Japan’s most legendary swordsman, wrote The Book of Five Rings. Divided into five sections: Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and Void. At the core of this work are the Nine Rules, presented in the Book of Earth as the cornerstone of Musashi’s teachings.

These principles, shaped by his own experience, call for honesty, relentless training, and focus on what truly matters. Musashi writes, “Do nothing which is of no use,” urging his students to cut away distractions and act with intention. He teaches that timing, awareness, and balance are essential for success, whether wielding a sword or navigating the challenges of life. Through the five books and these foundational rules, Musashi offers a guide to mastering one’s self and achieving clarity in all pursuits.

12 Principles of Niccolò Machiavelli | The Prince

Niccolò Machiavelli, in the 16th century, served as an advisor to powerful families and governments, observing firsthand the brutal realities of power. His writings rejected the idealism of morality-based politics in favor of cold, calculated strategy. For Machiavelli, the survival of the state and the strength of its leader outweighed any personal virtue or ethical concern.

His most infamous work, The Prince, published in 1532, is a pragmatic guide for rulers who wish to maintain power at any cost. It has endured not because it flatters our ideals, but because it dares to expose the shadow side of power. These are the 12 Principles of Machiavelli’s The Prince.
