Guard Your Reputations As Your Life Depends On It

Reputations allows control in the game of appearances

  • Establish a reputation for a strong characteristic: generosity, cunningness, honesty.

    • Make it know subtly (gradually) and as many people as possible.
    • Surround with people that manifest these values.
  • Reputation precedes, and it will do as a very good foundation for starting something new.

Do not seem defensive against slander

  • It shows lack of confidence in your character.

    • Slander turns into vengeful behavior when in excess, which damages your image.
    • You draw unnecessary attention to it making it bigger than it needs to be.
  • Protect your reputation against rumors
