How To Think Like Michael Corleone From The Godfather

[@Sadfrogggg]

“the saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies”

[@e.m.n6032]

It comes from your family and friends. Mostly family.

[@fortelewisandrew2426]

Marcus Brutus, Judas Iscariot, and Benedict Arnold their very names are synonymous throughout history with betrayal and treachery from within, hence the adage straight from the Godfather movies 'keep your friends close but your enemies closer.'

[@GothicRichard]

"Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer." This totally is talking about watching for betrayal from everyone especially those closest to you. And not letting them know you know until you have them where you want them.

[@TherealSIRenity]

If it comes from your enemies then it was never betrayal to begin with

Great video. Michael's way of thinking makes sense and is the best way to survive in any situation when dealing with people in your life. If this video was available in 2017 I might still be working at the place I got fired from. A friend betrayed me. I made too many mistakes. Said too much around the wrong people. Did not keep my enemies closer than my friends. If my 2017 situation was in the mafia I would be dead because I failed to think like Michael Corleone. That is the way I look at it.

[@Canyoutakemebackwhereicamefrom]

The laws of power applied to the godfather what a brilliant idea for a video! I read some comments saying Michael is too cold. I don't think so. Yes he is intelligent, analytical and calculated in his actions. But he still feels things deeply, that is why the constant betrayals are hard or him. But he isn't ruled by his emotions when it comes to deciding what to do about it. That's what sets him apart. He is shrouded in mystery. People don't know his plans or thoughts. If they do know, it is by his design and to his advantage.

What I find scary about Micheal is that he was never a wannabe gangster,he even had contempt for the mafia life . When his fathers life was threatened he enters the life as a businessman to preserve and protect the family name. Micheal was cold and detached but totally affective. Must admit in GF3 ( when he was at a much loved old Dons funeral) he says ‘Why were you so loved and I was so feared?’ Micheal knew why. Funny thing is GF3 s a film is not as powerful as the first two but n my humble opinion the confession scene with the priest and Micheal nearly brings me to tears. Eddie Murphy once said that you never know when you are making a great movie but you know when you’re making one that sucks. When they were filming the Godfather I doubt that they realised at they were making a roll Royce of a movie. Could watch it everyday 👍🏾
