“If you want power, at some point you will have to convince some humans to trust you”
— Yuval Noah Harari

Simplified Meaning:
To gain power, you need people to believe in you and support you. Think of a job where you want to become the team leader. If your coworkers trust that you can handle the job well and help them succeed, they will follow you. Another example is a politician running for office. They need the trust of voters to get elected. Without trust, people won't follow your guidance or let you lead them. So, to gain power, always work on being reliable, honest, and supportive to earn people's trust.
