Law 20: Do Not Commit to Anyone This is how it's widely misunderstood. Randall Kaplan

@RandallKaplan powerful. do what you want!

@RandallKaplan Commitment comes with responsibility.

@RandallKaplan You don’t have a choice if you’re a parent

@RandallKaplan Most think it means being cold or disloyal. It’s actually about maintaining leverage and optionality.

@RandallKaplan So in essence, giving birth to a child, being committed to raising one - puts every parent in the position of having less power. Makes sense now why parents get screwed in general in our society

@RandallKaplan choosing independence allows for more flexibility in our choices. such wisdom!

@RandallKaplan Game theory research by Nash (1950) showed cooperation emerges naturally in repeated interactions. Even single-celled organisms demonstrate complex symbiotic relationships. Nature rarely favors pure independence - it rewards strategic interdependence.

@RandallKaplan I disagree 💯 you should commit yourself to people. Your spouse, your family. I hope this isn’t what you meant

@RandallKaplan Sociopaths LOVE your books.

@RandallKaplan Have you ever been married 🤔
