Self-awareness is that thing many people claim to have but in no time at all you know this person is completely unaware of themselves. Our versions of reality seem to fall in line with the narrative and stories we constantly remind ourselves of, but the truth is, we’ve constructed a reality shaped and influenced by emotions that were never truthful from the beginning. Robert Greene, just released another book, The Daily Laws, and he joins Tom in this episode to share his profound wisdom and understanding of human nature. He beautifully peels back the layers of complexity around how we are able to perceive the world around us and the way in which we fit into our own stories. The main point Robert drives home is the power of detaching yourself from the emotions and egos to take an honest assessment of what you are truly experiencing.

QUOTES:
“Deal with the world the way that it actually is, and not the way that you wish it were.” Tom Bilyeu [0:26]
“We completely take appearances for reality. That's sort of the source of our problems and our misery to be honest with in life.” [1:10]
“When you're very young you're extremely vulnerable, you're extremely open to the energies of other people in ways we don't understand right now.” [6:38]
“So awareness is everything, the ability to look at yourself, realistically, and understand you're saying, see things as they are, see the world as it is. It begins with yourself, seeing yourself as you are.” [11:28]
“If we saw completely into ourselves, we would hate ourselves so thoroughly, we wouldn't get out of bed, we would all be killing ourselves, you do need a degree of illusion, you need a degree of self esteem and confidence” [20:14]
“We're so attuned to what's cool, to what other people are doing out there, what other people are saying that we lose kind of an intuitive grasp of who we are.” [22:50]
“The source of your power in life is your attitude towards the world.” [25:17]
“When you take 100% ownership, and you look at your life and say, My life is an exact reflection of choices that I've made. Now, if I want it to be different, then I just need only make different choices” Tom Bilyeu [32:39]

Which ‘Law of Human Nature’ did you find to be the most interesting? Why?
♥️👍
Still listening...
The Realm of the Sublime.
#innovation #invention
Every law is very helpfull and the most importent is about judge people for their character.
Fcuk me! these days I work with people with brain injury and have a client after stroke I'm just facilitating their time through my experience, Robert is one of my new heroes, Tom thank you!
yeah I'm 32 and feel like now I understand that I experienced sublime, but will need sit with that little bit longer.
maybe too much drugs, globetrotting and relationships and couple near death experiences but I'm curious where this will take me in few years it the will be given to me :)
I know my mission/vission around community movement and recconecting people with nature and with each other through action of planting healthy seeds
For anyone out there who doesn't feel confident enough. Do what you can, with what you have, where you are. Don't let others define the world for you. Get up and grab the opportunities. Have an awesome day! 💖🙏
Lack of confidence is caring too much about others. Confidence is strictly caring about you and doing what you want. That’s why even “losers” or unfit people can be extremely confident
Totally
Nicee
Thank you

As someone who is kind of starting over at 31, it helped to here this guy saying he didn't bloom till mid-late 30's. It's never too late to change the trajectory of your life ! 😁
Clean slate and hit it hard, don't be too hard on yourself - you've got this 💪🏼
I'm so glad you posted this comment. I had to start all over at 31 too. My life was a giant mess in my 20's but I learned so much! Now I know that life is my teacher and I just need to take in everything I can. Don't beat yourself up. We all bloom at different times in life. That's the beauty of life. That we are all different. Have a blessed life! ❤
33 ... is when "I" "blew everything up" .... and reinvented also
@@VINZBROWN wow awesome so it truly goes to show that different people bloom at different times and there's no set age that you should have your "shit together" as they say hahaha 😄... awesome and thanks for posting
I'm 28 & starting over.
Look at yourself instead of blaming other people. The hardest yet most liberating thing.
This speaks volumes to me 🫡
"Your attitude is your source of strength." Robert Greene

I like this saying. I keep reading it over again. No wonder I have so many people intimated by me . Because my altitude is so strong and aligned with mother nature.
That is a great quote. The world would be a better place if more ppl could accept that fact.
It's one of those things that is so powerful but can only help you if you are willing to accept it! Remember to meditate in the morning. I keep forgetting lately and it's a defining mistake...
For those who are struggling and depressed, I know it isn’t easy. Especially hard to go on when you don’t feel validated, and when everybody around you seems better than you. It’s not all your fault, you were dealt a bad hand. But have faith, a bad hand might be a blessing in disguise, you never know. Never give up.
"People who go into the depths are slow, deliberate, take time to think, more thoughtful, more patient, and that's where the greatness comes"💯👍
I needed it most thank you :)
100% yes !! 👌👏
“The decisions you make and the actions that follow are a reflection of who you really are”
Not true
@@linamarie84 what I see is ego creating a false sense of certainty with the statement of your opinion. Ego reveals to us a perception of our truth. Ego is all knowing of perceived knowledge. Once in control of your ego, you will see that your conceived notions of your personal perception on this matter are that in which truly contain no substance whatsoever. Open your mind and the truth will reveal itself from within.
actions speak louder than words. if you're ashamed of your actions, work on you. no one buys the words or excuses, it's what you do that shows us who you are.@@linamarie84

“Deal with the world the way it is and not how we wish it were!” Powerful 💖
Alanon teaches this also
Agree
I choose to disbelieve the importance of starting young when it comes to self-development considering I'm 47 years old and finally able to see/absorb information to the degree where I can not only process it but use it for change and growth. I'm considering my 47 years (and unfortunate zip code, autism, lack of parental guidance/encouragement in childhood, physical conditions and traumatic experiences collected over time as a result thereof) as particular challenges I have been handed in order to develop the unique and infinite capabilities I have been carrying but could not release without the proper sequence of events, like the combination on the padlock of my potential. Yeah, I'm late and Yeah, I'm challenged, but I've got moxy, damnit, and I'm freaking awesome.
Purr sis purr. You go girl. 💅🏽
Ditto… I’m 56
This is true at any age whatsoever. No one is "done" until we pass on.
Magnificently stated!

@@katierobertsfnp6403 Thanks.
To the person reading this, don't let the challenges of life bring you down. You are strong and capable of overcoming any obstacle. Keep pushing forward, and good luck on your journey! 💪🏼🌟
"Emotions are essentially a disease looking for a remedy." Yes! So many times we take emotions at face value when they're actually somewhat coded messages trying to get us to really honestly fix something.
This is so important I need to work on this
Robert is such a treasure to humanity. Such a great interview.
👍🏼🍃🙏🍃
I second that!
Here here!
Yes! Him talking about the way he deals with his strugles is immensely beautiful
Yeah, teaching how to manipulate other people is something to be really treasured 👍

Robert, remember that the LEFT brain ( in a right handed person) is the one that leads us into the realm of the divine. It's fascinating to listen to you talking about the low percentage of " chance" for us, evolving as humans for billions of years and to know that only the right brain is talking since the stroke involved your left brain. I am hoping for you and your readers that you will personally experience the divine and then write about it. It's also fascinating to hear you talk about the frustration of small movements and yet your rational thinking at how amazing the human body is and how we should be grateful! It's a paradox and I love listening to the right brain human nature talking about our divine nature or the lack of it. You might have guessed by now that I personally experienced during my first meditation a NDE that was a mystical experience beyond this world. I am Left brain dominant but I'm also a physician and a surgeon. In addition, I have had mystical experiences since age 11 that I did not understand. In fact it was terrifying to me at this age. Now, I am aware of our true nature and very interested in the divine being accessible to some and not to others. It's as if doubt had flourished in the last few centuries... I RECOGNIZED the divine during my experience. It's a non rational experience and this makes it difficult to talk or write about. We all have the knowledge. We have however created and encouraged doubt. Your testimony is fascinating. Everything is relative indeed. I'm waiting for you to let that left brain heal by allowing it to BE. You are a wonderful man. Everything you do is sacred. You have been touched by Grace and it will be happening again, I promise, as soon as you are able to recognized that truth.
everyone wants a dad like Robert Greene
Robert Greene - One of the greatest minds. He really “cracked” the humanity and has such a clarity of understanding and ability of communicating these truths succinctly

I agree.
*”When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.” - Elon Musk*

Of course both of These we also dislike in a way but the linking has to be bigger than the disliking in Order for us to move... The Hunger must be big enough to get us Out of the cave even though Theres a Tiger outside...
So to us, subjectively what is important is always the things we think we need, and that could also be translated as liking... Because the moment we realize that what we lack has more value than what we have, we like it and then we move

Speaking as someone from Scotland, if you want the sublime, you might want to go for a walk in the Scottish Highlands. It won't be as dangerous as climbing Everest etc., but it will certainly give you a sense of your smallness in the vastness of the cosmos and put things into perspective. In the meantime, go for a walk to the highest hill nearest you and sit and look out over your hometown or the city in which you live and you can get the same experience.
Every scene more impossibly beautiful than the one before. It's almost too much beauty. Love the Highlands
Don’t let low confidence take your dreams and ambitions away! You will run into opportunities unexpectedly and your going to want to be prepared!
Robert Greene is one of the greatest authors of our time. I’ve read almost all of his books..
Thank you Tom for bringing him on
You don’t know how many lives you’re changing for good with Impact Theory. Bless up 🙏🏾👏🏽❤️
This is one of the best conversations with Robert Greene I've watched.
Thank you Tom, for bringing out these great concepts from Robert.
I admire both of you, respectively.
Yess, truly the best👏👏👏

This is my first time hearing about the idea of the sublime, but it reminded me of something pretty recent in my life(not nearly as grand as climbing everest). I was taking a walk towards the end of this winter about a mile away from my immediate neighborhood(suburbs) and I was went down this long street. It was cold, dry, and windy. It was uncomfortable but peaceful. And I turned the corner and was met with heavenly rays of sunlight reflecting off the grass and trees. The sky looked like a painting. The warmth of the sun and the cold wind was hitting my face all at once. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. The wind felt like it was cracking my skin but I felt this rush of peace and gratitude that I’ve felt only a few times. My facial muscles were seizing up from the cold but I was so happy to be alive and feel something. Maybe I’m being naive but maybe I had a little peek into the sublime.
I literally just went through an episode in my professional life...I clashed so much with a business manager but stopped and looked deeply inside...Lo and behold, I was projecting my own deeply embedded mistrust for authority and as a result was not giving out my Real self...I left the position for the sake of peace but learned so much in the process...🙏❤🌌😔😇

I'm leaving a job that didn't work out, and I really wanted it too. I feel the same way as I did in middle school when I almost fit in, but didn't quite fit into the clique. And my boomer self should know better. I should be saying, "Ok, next!" But I can't shake the old feeling that keeps creeping in. I keep reminding myself to set the reset button.
We love Robert Greene. Can’t wait until October. So excited. Tom is the BEST interviewer.
I think it's very important to note that he says he meditates about 40 minutes every morning and if he doesn't, he can easily fall into deep depression. I'm going to try meditation now. Also, I might add that consistent exercise seems to work that same way for many people including myself.
My mind is always blown hearing Robert Greene, reminding ourselves of our mortality is the best way to live a life of gratitude! His description of the sublime has shifted my perspective to how crazy/beautiful this world is we live in! Thank you Tom for having him back on and asking awesome questions!🙏
Absolutely 💯!!! I moved in with a business partner and he was just like my father!!! He began abusing me after lovebombing me.kept coming in my bedroom ar night calling me MA!!! He wouldn't let me go out...listen to music...have friends!!! Just like my father whose mother died in childbirth!! I finally turned my dark side & Drove him out of his mind.He assaulted me....went to jail & I got free!!!!!
Self development comes at any age and at different stages in ,, our lives,, reading my guru Robert Green at all times when I find a road block,,,enables me to clear the problem and get on in my journey, Glad Robert Green has come on my lifetime, Roll up your sleeves and hands on GENIUS
My house and everything tangibly familiar to me was lost July 5, 2021 in a house fire and I was seriously burned, but I have recovered. I even lost one of my precious dogs. I’ve reframed this is an opportunity to declutter and start over with gratitude for what truly matters in life, which is health which is the truest wealth. I live my life with purpose and by design. I turned 60 this year and what a blessing to start fresh going into my retirement years! Radical acceptance 🙂

He hit the nail on the head about dealing with a narcissistic mother. I have been dealing with this issue with women. I have no trust for women and I deal with abandonment issues. My mother was never there for me and I deal with those issues now.
I am dealing with the opposite issue. My mother is the type that so overbearing that I now have anger and social issues.
I feel you. It's hard and sad to say, but I didn't begin to; heal, love and Live; Until, My mother passed. She was an unmediated, Bipolar, Narcissist. I was with someone for 15 years total. HE IS A FULL SPECTRUM NARC! I kept going back thinking he would change. LMAO, 6 TIMES. Hello, That is the deficit of insanity. For Real.
I didn't even see the pattern of leaving relationships before people can "abandon" me.
It s taken me 7 years to be the me I am today now that she's gone.
Now that you know it's real, you ask yourself if the way your acting in a certain situation is rooted in reality, or driven by your relationship with your mother. Are you attracted to these women because it is real attraction, or are you trying to relive your relationship with your mother.
I had emotional abandonment from my mother. I acted out by having the mentality that I'm leaving my significant other before they leave me. After a year or so in a relationship I looked for any reason to leave her before she left me. As you can imagine I left a long trail of broken hearts and damaged a lot of women. I'm not proud of that. I changed when I almost died. I experienced the sublime that Robert is talking about.
I am dealing with opposite in the sense that my father wasn’t ever there for me. And as a woman I keep attracting narcissist men who just love to hurt/discard. It’s tiring but one day at a time :)
@ET Not judging, but you're choosing those men
My Emotions is a long term broken heart + broken soul... I ran from "violence's' , but even worse the mental belittling, Words that Even I today would never say to a 5,6,7,8,9,10 year old child. So I ran & lived on the streets @ 10yrs young... But hey just sharing in a positive outlook now... Stand tall... Thank you.
I can listen this man for hours.
Crashed my bike and had a NDE where I felt the sense of that place beyond sublime. My mindscape changed at that moment, nothing of this world mattered the way it had before. Despite the experience and ecerything that accompanied it, life reeled me back in chock full of all its feelings and emotions and mental conundrums.
“Memories without the emotional charge is wisdom.” Dr. Joe Dispenza.
Do not take for granted what you have now. Thank you Robert for reminding us
Robert Greene changing my life 9 years ago. Mastery is a great book. I even had an audible copy. So good.
The way this man pushes through everything, he is such an inspiration and he is a victory of the human spirit.
Agreed. He is so incredibly smart/wise.
Robert Greene is such a treasure. Thank you for doing this podcast Tom ☺️
I thought his “Art of Seduction” was a blot on his reputation. He advocated some ghastly strategies to nail women. It was appalling.
A few quotes:
“People want to be led astray, they yearn to be seduced. If they didn’t, seducers would not find so many willing victims. Get rid of any moralizing tendencies.”
“Never let your targets get too comfortable with you. They need to feel fear and anxiety. Show them some coldness, a flash of anger they did not expect. Be irrational if necessary.”
His 24 rules flirts with amorality. Women are described as targets or victims, to be drawn into temptation, and to achieve the seducer’s ends he should attempt to elicit fear in his quarry.
Nasty.
I love it when Robert says there’s no reason to be envious in the first place. I have learned this over the years. When we have an ego that is needy, that’s when we feel envy. I’ve run into people who are blatantly envious of things in me that I have no control over! Like my looks or how I think. Or my skills- and they’ve actually tried to knock me down because of that. And the crazy thing is that I seldom recognize it, someone points it out. I’ve learned now to recognize envy better and this has helped me avoid them before a hurt occurs to either of us. I’m not egocentric by saying this, it’s just that there are people who are innately or constantly envious. It starts by comparing yourself to others.
Don’t do that. Be happy with the miracle that you are- as Robert says.
If you're alive then you have the power to change your life for the better. Pretty much everything Robert talks about here is a learnable skill. Things like presence, acceptance, self esteem etc, are all learnable skills anyone can aquire.
So many different people come up with the same observations & ideas. Success really seems to follow universal laws
I love how deep this Robert Green is. He’s the kind of guy I wish I had more of in my friend circle. People are so shallow or concerned with the minutiae of culture, even intellectual culture. I want people who like to talk about why we are here, how crazy the universe is, all that jazz.
If everyone tell themselves “it’s my fault”. Then it’s everybody’s fault, which is the cold hard truth. We all suck. It’s ancient wisdom “As Thou dost forgive us our trespasses, so may we forgive others who trespass against us. Shew upon us Thy goodness, that to others we may shew the same.”
Robert is awesome! We need to carve out time everyday to reflect -think about who I am, what I want out my life, and what I came to this world for.
A very Calming video on, How your reality is controlled by your thoughts and you dont even know it ua-cam.com/video/RAw8OxEj-Rg/v-deo.html
Interview impacted me greatly. I was a relatively healthy fit and active 35 year old woman. Then I got extremely sick sicker than I've been in my entire life after that it turned into post viral syndrome after that a couple of autoimmune diseases surfaced. Then I was consequently also diagnosed with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia I know those last are a bit of an issue for the Skeptics but my neurologist and rheumatologist verify they are legitimate medical disorders, stigma aside, I went from healthy to barely being able to hold down a part-time job and care for myself. I am exhausted and in pain all the time sleep doesn't help I am feeble it's like I went from 30 to 80 overnight and I could absolutely relate when you asked how he copes with his limitations. Every word he said about dealing with his situation struck a major chord for me. You really do have to figure out an entirely different way to approach life and thinking and being when your health and or a vital aspect of your body is taken away from you. Thank you for asking him that personal question
I love Robert since he's so honest with his feelings. I think everyone can relate to everything he says.
I didn’t realize he had had a stroke. I always wondered why he talked in the fashion that he does. I am inspired. Robert Greene,
And thank you Tom, for digging deeper, for the interview.
You know it’s a good podcast when you pause, rewind, replay and ponder every few minutes! Lol one of the best eps I’ve seen. I’ve been devouring Robert Greens work since I heard his first interview. He’s brilliant and I can’t wait to read his new book. Definitely have him on again, I could listen for hours
I have totally made peace with the fact that someone I admire might not admire me, and I’ve let go of the need to be smarter than anyone else. It’s all good. I am enough, you are enough, there is enough!
I love Robert Greene!! I deeply connected with him on so many levels, he is philosophical without the smoke and mirrors, he is down to earth with spot on advice. A lot of people think "The 48 Laws of Power" is a morality book on how to be but it's not, it's a book on what reality IS. It's not idealistic and altruistic of what should be, it's literally what people are doing and you should try to understand those people MORE because they are often those in power or feening for power. Robert is my unofficial mentor. I also just picked up his new book-- going to have a Robert Greene marathon. Thank you Tom for having him on!
I had a near death experience when I was 19. I left my body in the ER and went with what some would call a spirit and I went around all existence with the spirit and I saw the macro and micro of creation and the essences of creation. I was never the same after that and felt homesick for the spiritual realities
Robert is a personal hero of mine, and this podcast is a clear and obvious example of his brilliance, his fortitude and the positive impact and inspiration he has generously and humbly given to me and to the world. Thank you Tom and Robert!
My favorite author... thank you Tom for interviewing Robert. He is truly a gift to humanity. Love his book "Mastery". Its life transforming.
These interviews with Robert Green are Gold for everybody!
We should not idolize people like Musk or Jobs. Live your own life. Love your own fate.
They are 2 jerks.
I'm so excited about this interview! I love his books. The 48 Laws of Power and Mastery are my favorites of his work. He knows how to convey a complex message through storytelling.
is this book on audible?
@@melissamayer9983 I don't have audible so I'm not too sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if these titles were available on audible. These books were national bestsellers.

Completely agree.
Robert Greene is an amazing author. When I first saw his interview in the Roommates, I bought his book 48 laws of power. The book totally changed my outlook in life and helped me with introspection and how to deal with people.
░⤴⤴
Thank you both. Robert, I love that you are able to share some of your struggle to recover. I struggle with autoimmune issues which take up a much of my days. My arms, my voice, my hands, my legs at times, and often my brain do not work as well as I know I could be capable of. I encourage us all to appreciate what we do have, what we can do, and to realize we will all have to learn to cope with losses, and to not take what you have now for granted. This is all temporary. Much Love!
I suffer from bad autoimune illness.I almost died in january this year and was given max. Couple months to live.11 months later i changed my job moved,to another city and I am in best shape of my live.When i was in hospital bed facing death i realized how much time and energy i spent being small,weak and scared person.All problems I had all worrys i had were small speck of dust.So now i started to live again at 41 years old.So be the strongest and bravest you can be,time goes so fast,and even smallest step makes a huge difference.Sorry if my english is not so good.I wish you all the best,hope you will get better,never never give up.
Have you heard of Dr Gabor Mate?
He explains Autoimmune disease how it's self induced through suppression of pain trauma circulating through our bodies
His books are Amazing
Robert, I don't know if you'll see this but I completely hear you on the frustrations of just trying to get your body to do basic things again. Nerve related injuries take just SO LONG to heal. Lots of f words. 2.5 years for me and my foot is still healing. Neuro physio help is amazing.
Thank you Tom for your brutal and audacious honesty. You've publicly affirmed flaws about yourself that are difficult for me to accept in silence. I truly admire Robert Greene and love listening to him, but I've gained a tremendous respect for you after watching this. I am a very late bloomer and feel more empowered to pursue my goals after watching this video...
Late bloomer,in my opinion,would make a more empathetic partner compared to a player with gameThey have had time to reflect on themselves and crave a real bond..choose wisely and good luck.
“Deal with the world the way it actually is and not the way you wish it were.”

Robert Greene is one of my authors of all time. I have 5 of his books. I love that they're Classics. I can reread them from time to time and always get more enjoyment. This was an important video to see the inside version of Robert to see him open himself up to us in a way that I could not have imagined. He's a brave man and I admire him immensely!
Robert, I wish you the best this life has to offer. I hope you get to heal and finally enjoy your most sublime life. You are a treasure, sir! Thanks, Tom, for such a great interview!
As a Wholistic Life Coach, I specialize in CBT, Cognitive Behavioral Training/techniques. And REBT, Rational Emotive Behavioral Training/techniques. Love the way Greene puts the truth out there from his perspective of knowledge, self-awareness, and spirituality. Good Stuff, Tom Bilyeu.
Robert Greene is spectacularly intelligent. I love him🥰
at my current life stage with the sufficient amount of self awareness, listening to greene speak is so therapeutic and healing.
Watched a lot of Robert Greene interviews.....this one with Tom is the best. Thanks Tom
This is the exact conversation I needed to hear literally right now . I’m so grateful this was uploaded at the perfect time . I definitely needed this and will apply this to my life . I’m ready to for a drastic change 🙏🏽
😊
I feel bad that Robert is suffering from this sickness. I hope God visit him and help him.
He is even fighting to make it, to get more out to the world, before it all ends 🥺
Robert i never would stop studying you im 22 you made life much easier ❤
At 18:36 in the video; when conscious control of good self esteem (feeling good about yourself) is talked about, I realized I have a very nice anti fragile thought structure that you can attach to this feeling at its base and maintain it in perpitudee as a way to regard yourself and its universally applicable to others too, so I felt I must share it!
It is simply as follows:
Hold Life as Sacred.
My use of Sacred is defined as: entitled to reverence and respect. Also: unassailable, inviolable, and Holy(if you will).
So when something is Sacred it is worthy of your respect in your mind. it is likely you will value and nurture it, protect it, promote it, and be more forgiving of shortcomings in this inviolable thing; for it is just that!
That which is Sacred IS antifragile to the tarnishing effects of negative truths, it is cherished, preserved at all costs, and its dishwasher safe*
So apply Sacred to being alive.
It's a Simple criteria and easily decernable;
Now, with the idea that life is Sacred that Sacred tenacity and allowance should extend to every representation of life; i.e. Living things like people, yourself, pets, and animals ect.
So while the ego in you throws shade into the spotlight of your self esteem. Said shade cannot cast a shadow of doubt on its shine as we remind ourselves of its living status and thereby setting boundaries for the minimum value of the standard its treated To..
If life is sacred and I am alive I represent a facet of what I hold sacred and will always be of value if not simply in that regard.
A bonus is that this is also true within others!
so from a life is Sacred frame of reference Respect as a concept and practice is inherent within any interactions with other living things, so none of that hater ass rudeness upon meeting till you earn clout shit. Just respect up front cause your alive.
Not to say a person can't loose my respect, but when It is lost there is a line still, one ensuring safety on some level from actions which would take away or decide life's corse for someone or something else *
Because you can " not respect " someone till your blue in the face but you should respect yourself by maintaining that (their life) which is Sacred to you.
And with that you can weild this thought structure through the trials of addressing the depths of truth that amalgamated to form you, and with your self esteem ensured solution for dudes quandary is found!
*just kidding but it is organic!
This is by far the most beautiful and relatable interview I’ve ever seen and heard. Tom I have been following you for several years, and I do because I am drawn to your authenticity. Thank you from my core for this interview. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great interview, I love when Robert gets all raw and gritty
Robert is a hero to the cynical yet curious among us.
Holy Crap! That was just absolutely mind opening!
Thank you thank you thank you!
The things i have for granted, that is a point i have to remember (and i am training Judo, which i find hard to get from the mind to the body). And also this one: I battle this feeling of inferiority, i am 47 and think i am slow in thinking, that i am no smart enough, that many are faster than me in comprehension terms, that my "best years" are behind, and discovering that, yes there are many better than me, but also that all my experiences begin to cristallize exactly at this age, and with some thought i can get some benefits and advantages for me. I can get on with life. Thank you, Tom and Robert.
So simple yet so complex. I can totally relate I always listen to my intuition. Never fails and it turns on at a very very young stage in being.
I’m so obsessed with Robert Greene
Had learn long hard way about people- but feeling I’m mastering it as time goes by. Listened to R.Greens books! TY!🙏
Takes practice and perseverance.
As a woman and been on my own- had become very aware of people. Learn to mediate and trust intuition. So many toxic and opportunist people who will take advantage and exploit you. People you would never even imagine. But also you have take responsibility to discern and cannot blame the external. My depression was bad for long time and had face a lot within and reality.
This was magical Tom. “Mastery” is my #1 favorite book of all time. Keep up the great work.
'Detach....detach yourself from situations'. That's really great I remember these things are said in Bhagvadgeeta world's oldest scriptures.
Enlightening! Thank you Robert Green
I highly i enjoyed listening to Robert Green! Such a brain 🧠 keep it coming Tom 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👌🏽♥️
I took away so much from this fabulous talk , looking forward to reading your book and doing the daily meditations you mention. Gratitude is so important and to remember that things change
This is the most amazing interview where Robert Green has an emotional moment in describing us the present time of our existence with such a clarity that one can almost touch it
Tom, I’ve related with so much of your content over the years, that said this one has hit the nail on the head for me. At 18 I was in an accident with a foodlion semi. And had 24 surgeries on the left side of my body from head to toe. So I can relate a lot with his frame of mind. Only I’ve accepted that I have limitations so I very seldom get frustrated I just always work to push past those limitations and love live a more normal life. Although my person that I look to and think man I’ll never be that guy is you. If I could be doing anything with my life it would look very similar to yours. I have a a deep reverence for life, tho I live for sharing those deep thought connections with other souls the way you are able to achieve that in just about all your interviews in such a natural progression as tho no one’s watching while we get to be a fly on the wall… It is quite amazing, thank you for all you do, your content has helped me so much over the years! 🙏🏻
Kind Regards,
Spencer Isaacs
This is a great talk that is at least 3 distinct talks in one. On the point of being a late bloomer, envy, comparison and people who are great at what they do. Such an honest talk that was so refreshing to hear. At some point in my life I hit the place where I both realized that I probably was not going to achieve mastery in a lot of things I always had some level of interest in. At the same time, I found myself being really moved by greatness in just about any field. Watching someone who found their thing whether it was in science, sports, the arts, cooking, I mean literally anything really chokes me up. It is like utter amazement at what human beings can do. The conversation of the first half was also excellent and I sent it to my 20-something son as he in the process of deciding who he is going to be.
It makes me feel calm and settled to listen and watch this. Such chaos of life structured and worked out with years. Respect ✊
I had a neardeath experience and it changed my life completely…. I m grateful for that
Robert Greene.. The Prophet of our time.. who preached rationally and bestow vision to visionless people
Rethinking! Thanks you Robert and Tom. This interview is very helpful and so genuine.
I loved this and my book "The Laws of Human Nature" came today and it's amazing! Thank you Tom for always having impactful humans including yourself!
robert greenee is soo master.
belief is not enough..knowing whats right and believing what you should be may not be enough to bring you to your path of happiness.Its really knowing deeper and detaching yourself and heal it first.We humans are not perfect
