Read this book to become literally an UBERMENSCH!
It is short and contains all the wisdom of all all philosophers of the last 2500 years. The book was written around 1650.
The Art of Worldly Wisdom by Balthasar Gracian
http://www.andrewburke.me/media/Gracian.pdf
Create a Feeling of Dependence.
Not he that
adorns but he that adores makes a divinity. The
wise man would rather see men needing him than
thanking him. To keep them on the threshold of
hope is diplomatic, to trust to their gratitude
boorish; hope has a good memory, gratitude a bad
one. More is to be got from dependence than
from courtesy. He that has satisfied his thirst
turns his back on the well, and the orange once
sucked falls from the golden platter into the
waste
-
basket. When dependence disappears,
good behaviour goes with it as well as respect.
Let it be one of the chief lessons of experience to
keep hope alive without entirely satisfying it, by
preserving it to make oneself always needed even
by a patron on the throne. But let not silence be
carried to excess lest you go wrong, nor let
another's failing grow incurable for the sake of
your own advantage.

A Man at his Highest Point.
We are not born
perfect: every day we develop in our personality
and in our calling till we reach the highest point
of our completed being, to the full round of our
accomplishments, of our excellences. This is
known by the purity of our taste, the clearness of
our thought, the maturity of our judgment, and
the firmness of our will. Some never arrive at
being complete; somewhat is always awanting:
others ripen late. The complete man, wise in
speech, prudent in act, is admitted to the familiar
intimacy of discreet persons, is even sought for
by them.
