How can you attract and maintain attention without appearing desperate?
There are many cases when it is to your benefit to attract and maintain attention - for good reasons. The dangerous flip side, however, is coming across desperate for attention.
Law 6: Court Attention at All Costs from the book The 48 Laws of Power helps you consider this balance.
