The problem with lot of the self help books and videos also religion that forces ppl to look inside. Is that the the true hardcore narcs and envious ppl won't look at these videos or books or seek religions that force ppl to look in. For society to work properly we all have to look within and aim to improve.
Robert Greene is the homie. Thanks for being available for these contents and your books. I’m learning a lot and trying to put them into practice and it’s helping big time.
Thank you very much Robert. I’m excited to read your books. Thank god another sensible voice is flying around in this stormy existence. Very grateful for your thoughts and that you’re sharing them.
Robert Greene is one of the best authors of our time. I read and re-read all his books. The insights are life changing. I re-read his books all the time and find different angles and answers. Thank you for amazing interview 🙏
@@not-even-german4892 Childish and not needed But @jenn , That’s transparent of you and I admire you doing that. Ngl, I can get envious too. When it comes to social media, sometimes you can’t help but compare. And it really isn’t all what it seems,some people are paying for trips with credit cards, in debt, working basic jobs that they make seem to be high end, having parents help out with rent, depressed, so much more too.
Social media is a sewer for the mind. Spend a lot of time there and you start to stink and get sick. Leaving social media has been very beneficial for me also.
@@not-even-german4892Didn't she admit that? Envy is a universal human vice. It's not easy to conquer (and many people who think they've conquered it are self-deceived). Admitting she has envy and taking steps to mitigate it puts her far ahead of many of us.
VERY good suggestion. Ro ert Greene is one of the easiest Therapists to connect t to on video. He's compelling g and even keeled. I need to work on my listening skills 100% harder and just as consistently.
I got rid of methadone/amphetamines/lyrica/half a dozen psych meds/benzos/soda/social media and now porn and switched from smoking cigarettes to vaping (I plan to quit vaping eventually, too), and my life is immensely better as a result. A friend of mine told me yesterday that everybody in the recovery community in my area has been saying that I've been doing really well and they've all taken notice of it. Those joke comments "I was lazy and drank and the rest I wasted" is funny, but truly you do not want to live like that. Constant movement, exercise, with one day off from all of it to indulge in laziness per week, has been a good way for me to balance things. Today, I only drink caffeine, consume tech on my computer during my time off, vape and take 2 medications, and I'm doing so much better.
That's great. I would advise you to change your profile pic and username, because if you don't, you will continue to align yourself with that name and that will be your identity. Embrace what you want to become, not who you were. Good luck 🤞🏼
Thank you so much, dear Mr. Greene, for being so profoundly, humanly honest and sharing your cogent, valuable thoughts and especially vulnerability after the stroke. How edifying and inspiring. Kudos also to the generous interviewer, Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, for offering and modeling such deep, evocative listening and allowing Robert Greene to share in unimpeded, sweet flow, welcomed and uninterrupted by the interviewer's ideas and reactions. How brave and compassionate to yield to the speaker and not needing to evidence your own impressive experience, education and insights, which might feel unacknowledged, but we viewers can vibe with your high quality, sir.
Feeling the disconnect (social media) made to “connect yet it’s disconnected people. Everyone is walking with their phone through the grocery store, crossing the street, working out at the gym. What happened to looking up and saying something like “hello!?! Ridiculous.
Been working on all of this for the past 3 years... just beginning to fully grasp all my own issues and to apply and practice consistent conscience presence in my life . I appreciate the raw truth of this discussion.
I love that last piece of advice Robert gave: there’s so much in it & worth listening to a few times over & I am thankful to Rangan for not interrupting or rushing Robert through that golden nugget he delivered! ❤👏
the parts of the video as i saw them (if anyone needs a map to these 89 minutes) - narcissism and envy and other 'bad' qualities -> picking up cues from others and feeling them (nonverbal communication) -> how ? about his meditation practice - irrationality and emotions - (emotions aren't words), you can become addicted to emotions (even anxiety or depression) - perspective + law of shortsightedness - we're being affected by others - is he still fascinated by others? irrationality of people - tweet "everything that happens to you is a form of instruction to you, if you pay attention" - unhappy? make things hard for ourselves to change things and get the needed urgency
Every time you interview a person as this great man, and knowledgeable person, You amazed me with this extraordinary channel that you Dr. Chatterjee manage so well! You are transmitting a such powerful message to all us. I totally agree with your feelings, thoughts, knowledge as well. Great, Great!
This conversation injects humanity with clarity, hope and wisdom. This is an amazing effort to truly unearth the mysterious forces that drive the human psyche.
The comments about people being roaring lions from behind the curtain reminded me of the scene in wizard of oz, when the wizard gets found out. If social media had transparency like we have in the street then it would possibly help people be more graceful. I think the curtain plus the written word being powerful is an underestimated power a lot of us don't use carefully enough.
I did the whole street preaching thing and used to be a hardcore christian but I still felt empty Inside. So I searched for God in Islam and Mormonism and Santeria/voodoo and drug's and alcohol but I became more Lost and was on the streets once. It wasn't until I hit Rock bottom and gave up on Life, and told God that if this is what God's wants for and if God wants me to suffer, I told him 'okay' and I surrendered and then and only then is when God spoke to me and touch me and my Life changed instantly!! God is nothing like how the religions claim. God is Bigger than religion and bigger than The Bible and Bigger than The Quran.
9:15 Robert finishes explaining how most people don’t listen during conversation. Host immediately responds with “yeah-“ and proceeds with his own tangent, proving Robert’s point.
I consider myself a good listener, but in a loooong conversation I can find myself spacing out at times and not able to tune in every second. This is normal. But congrats to finding "fault" with someone who in general is a great listener. Bravo👏👏👏
Great interview, thank you. I got into Soto Zen Buddhism in the early 1990s. I highly recommend reading Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind_ for anyone interested in starting a meditation practice. The first chapter or so instructs the basic technique (posture, breathing, etc.). If, like me, you can't sit in the full lotus position with both legs crossed, don't let that stop you. For that matter, don't let any physical issues hold you back. If you're breathing, the practice is possible; if you're not, well . . . Anyway, the book is a free PDF download or in print and on Audible.
I just want you to know, that through your podcast the knowledge you have given me has given me so much more belief in myself and therefore had such an impact on my children's life also... A big thank you from the bottom of my heart.... Noel 💙💯 Birkenhead.
Yes I did that today when my son was going nuts … I remained calm instead of being in his movie and reacting I am watching the movie and saying unaffected .
I totally agree but some of us are so self absorbed they don't have the time to be envious. I know I put myself where I am it's nobody's fault but mine.
Incredible and very timely chat as I’ve lost my Drive and motivation and cannot work out why, this has helped me; identify why I’ve been miserable, frustrated, angry, envy etc as well as off track with my fitness (no real goal) it’s because I’ve stopped Meditating many months ago restarted my 5Am Club Jan 1st 2022 and lasted 200days. Before having to get extra work (to pay the bills) and got very tired- and couldn’t maintain/sustain my routine. This interview has helped me recognise that I’m missing my 20 mediation (in my 5am club). So that’s me back (testing my 5am C tomorrow morning) prior to Jan 1 2023!!! I’m back- thank you both!! Also the last Question eg final words has connected to the urgency and high motivation- so a great end of Year interview. Roberts book is now on my wish list and my first book Dr C (new Book) has arrived for Xmas (half way through at the mo- fantastic) and thank you for the game and life changing podcasts and work it’s incredible 🙏 Si Surrey 🇬🇧
Isn’t that funny? Every time I’m off track, I can trace it back to abandoning my core routines that got me to the better place in the first place. Somehow life pops up (whether it be more work, family emergency, kids needing more from us, etc etc) and I tell myself I can skip parts of the morning routine or I deserve to rest rather than driving to the gym. Then, not long after that, I have abandoned all my routines and gained 20lbs. 😩 Now that I wholeheartedly accept that I MUST protect my core routines like i would protect my kids from a threat, I still don’t have *desire* to put one foot in front of the other … to get back on the proverbial wagon after this last 18 months of crushing blows. So your comment struck a cord with me 😅 I’m trying to adopt the belief that “I don’t need motivation or desire. I just need discipline.” But knowing that and DOING that are still different things. 😵💫 Just wanted to send my best wishes to you. 🎉❤
I was struck by Robert's observations about envy, and how no one will admit to it. Well, what I've noticed about myself is that my lack of envy is not normal, and not a good thing. Envy can be a powerful motivator. It isn't necessarily negative. Envy that causes a person to undermine someone else is poisonous, but envy that motivates people to become more excellent and outshine others is not a bad thing. Or at least I don't see why it should be.
Ok Dr. Chatterjee... I love you as a doctor and as a person. The fact that you meet your patience and walk with them to the examination room is so special. You work is helping so many people , me included. Thank you.
I really enjoined the interview. One of the best I have listen. Especially the advice at the end, honest , real and ''tough love'' kind like. Thank you Robert Greene.
That’s how I am right now, missing that energie to reinvent myself. I am very aware of bouth terms.the need of become a new person, and the need to have all the energie is needed to do that.😔
If anything I have payed too much attention to people,having moved so much finally ending up in Philadelphia 8 years ago. Which has turned out to be an extremely insular large city and like many cities an evergrowing mega college town full of self-centered 20 somethings. Did my great deeds for my neighbors in New York for decades which in that same spirit fell on deaf ears with all of my efforts in Philadelphia just the same. Great conversation by the way.
I have attempted to meditate many times in my life and prior to this CD the only success I've experienced is with live guided meditation. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq This is the first CD I've used that cuts through my unmedicated ADHD and enables me to truly relax and experience a quiet and energizing interval. The instructors voice is very soothing and pleasant to listen to. I am easily able to sit successfully through the entire CD, and for quite some time after. I cannot adequately express how tremendously helpful this CD has been on my spiritual journey!! Two thumbs up and 10 stars!
Truly inspiring! The message starting at 1:24:00 is so powerful. Dr. Chaterjee is an amazing interviewer; listens carefully, knows huge amount of Robert’s work, asks excellent questions. Thank you so much for this interview.
I just love this man - wished I have the opportunity to learn from him when I was twenties (back in China) - The cutures countries are different, but the principles and human natures are the same.
No you are not a neuroscientist, but as a consciousness writer who has had a stroke you certainly have unique bonafides. Thank you for this content and the gift of you experience.
You have to unlearn what you have learned to find yourself and not to be what you are teached through life.... Learn to be alone, if it is possible at all in your life :) Good hunt finding yourself....
I started my journey fueled with passion to achieve goals (career) that i desired in my life more than 1 year ago. Lately, the previous 2 weeks was the end of that journey as i was exposed to many things in life that are so contradicted with my belief and goals I'd set before. Now I accidentally find this podcast that seems to be a possibility to help me with my depression i'm having right now. Hope it can solve it.
I am aware of my dark side had to go into it because I was a victim of being involved with a cult unknowingly, was guided by a close partner. His mom tongue kissed me unwilling and sucked my life, after that I was broken mentally. They never thought I would prevail. but God spoke to me that I would overcome. He is putting me on a mission to speak about My Life.
This was an interesting conversation. Unusually I noticed I was a little annoyed with the flow of the interview, like Dr Chatterjee was often not responding to what Mr Greene had said but moving onto another point. This lead me to wonder what it was in my own life that it was triggering. Maybe an inability to fully listen and respond to people because I am distracted with my thoughts? Thank you both for an interesting video.
If this video helps you, it's prolly all you need, but don't listen to people, when you have been listening to people all the time and it never helped! At some point you know if you tried hard enought to fit into a certain pattern or expectations of society. At some point you got to say "F it", I know what's good for me and I am going to do it for myself and not for expectations or society! Don't listen to me also, this comment is also an influence that doesn't have to be true for you! WE are DIFFERENT, eventhough we are all human!
Most of us live lifestyles that objectively require exploitation of resources, other people, and the ecosystem for our expected level of lifestyle and consumption. We are objectively destroying the world for our children. We must deny this reality to ourselves to avoid despair, but the cost of this lie is the loss of our empathy. If we had empathy enough to see this insanity, we would surely go insane.
It's really an insightful conversation .got to learn lot about human nature .human nature is really fascinating ...thnk you dr.ranjan and Dr .green for this wonderful conversation
dude, it ain't hard for me to admit i'm envious of certain things. i'm envious of beautiful people, i'm envious of rich people, i'm envious of brilliant people, i'm envious of funny people. but i don't let it eat me alive, and i don't let it dominate my thoughts. but it's def there. seems crazy immature to me for someone to exclaim they *aren't* envious of anyone or anything.
Hi. I live in Russia. I really like your channel, but Russia does not understand what you are talking about on the channel. Can I translate your videos and post them on the UA-cam channel. So that many people who speak Russian can become a little more human than they are now?
I thought envy was about wanting to be like another - that could be seen as a quality in that it inspires. Jealousy is wanting what another has, taking it from them. That seems to be what’s being described here. Jealousy is where the suffering lies imo
No envy is more evil. Jealousy is when you simply wish or want what someone else has. Envy is not only do you want what they have, you also want them not to have it. You wish something bad would happen to them
This really tells me how he thinks. I certainly work with a lot of good people who are selfless and clearly not envious and push other ahead to succeed. I'd hate to live in his world. 😢
I've frequently been frustrated with this - with "normal" conversation where it goes so fast and no one seems to REALLY listen. Inspirting-I'm going to work on my listening skills, listening deeply. I know with clients I can do this deeply, but I want to improve on listening to my partner.
32:07 key!!! I had a talk therapy psychiatrist who would ALWAYS walk in front of me and this was afterhours so the office was empty and that made it more uncomfortable and uncomfortable
Being self absorbed is not the definition of a narcissist and NPD, or narcissistic personality disorder, is really complicated because it happens in childhood when the ego fails to adequately develop. Then the narcissist creates a false grandiose or victim persona that he/she uses to draw energy off other people. The person who has NPD is never happy or content. It's a truly empty and miserable state of existence and extremely difficult (although not impossible for the expert) to cure or even treat.
Thank you got this wonderful conversation. I really enjoyed it.
The problem with lot of the self help books and videos also religion that forces ppl to look inside. Is that the the true hardcore narcs and envious ppl won't look at these videos or books or seek religions that force ppl to look in. For society to work properly we all have to look within and aim to improve.
Thank you both! I really enjoy listening to your wisdom Robert!
I wish more men were so aware 😆

I got rid of FB due to my envy. I feel much better without it. It's toxic and not even real representations of life. A bragging and argument forum
U have a problem 😮😮😮

But @jenn ,
That’s transparent of you and I admire you doing that. Ngl, I can get envious too. When it comes to social media, sometimes you can’t help but compare. And it really isn’t all what it seems,some people are paying for trips with credit cards, in debt, working basic jobs that they make seem to be high end, having parents help out with rent, depressed, so much more too.

What a wonderful stellar interview. Robert Greene is an transparent, eloquent, incredible human being
Thank you so much, dear Mr. Greene, for being so profoundly, humanly honest and sharing your cogent, valuable thoughts and especially vulnerability after the stroke. How edifying and inspiring.
Kudos also to the generous interviewer, Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, for offering and modeling such deep, evocative listening and allowing Robert Greene to share in unimpeded, sweet flow, welcomed and uninterrupted by the interviewer's ideas and reactions. How brave and compassionate to yield to the speaker and not needing to evidence your own impressive experience, education and insights, which might feel unacknowledged, but we viewers can vibe with your high quality, sir.
Feeling the disconnect (social media) made to “connect yet it’s disconnected people. Everyone is walking with their phone through the grocery store, crossing the street, working out at the gym. What happened to looking up and saying something like “hello!?! Ridiculous.
The worst thing is parents ignoring their children - faces on phones instead of interacting with the children/babies.
I also feel like it has disconnected me from myself… I have developed an avoidant personality.
Been working on all of this for the past 3 years... just beginning to fully grasp all my own issues and to apply and practice consistent conscience presence in my life . I appreciate the raw truth of this discussion.
I really like Robert Greene, what a lovely, genuine man who has so much to teach us all. Thanks for this great video! Appreciated.

the parts of the video as i saw them (if anyone needs a map to these 89 minutes)
- narcissism and envy and other 'bad' qualities -> picking up cues from others and feeling them (nonverbal communication) -> how ? about his meditation practice
- irrationality and emotions - (emotions aren't words), you can become addicted to emotions (even anxiety or depression)
- perspective + law of shortsightedness
- we're being affected by others
- is he still fascinated by others? irrationality of people
- tweet "everything that happens to you is a form of instruction to you, if you pay attention"
- unhappy? make things hard for ourselves to change things and get the needed urgency
Thank you

The Medium is the Massage, is a great book that hits a lot of points talked about here. Incredible this book was written in the 70's.
Two amazing practitioners in there own right. Emence respect for both their work followed both for years. 🙏
I find my issue is ,I have too much self awareness. Not sure if that's more negative than positive..
Robert hugs, DrRangan hugs great sit down pow wow thank you!
8:20 that makes total sense people would be wired to be self-absorbed when stressed.
reminds me of b salzmans passive listening
The part on the sublime, and finding it in the ordinary was quite profound, especially in the way it came to Robert.
Robert hits the nail on the head.
I just love this man - wished I have the opportunity to learn from him when I was twenties (back in China) - The cutures countries are different, but the principles and human natures are the same.
25 years young here and I’m very grateful to have the awareness to listen to people like him and eckhart tolle, Jordan Peterson, Carl Jung, etc.

No you are not a neuroscientist, but as a consciousness writer who has had a stroke you certainly have unique bonafides. Thank you for this content and the gift of you experience.
Behaviour patterns
Important skill
You have to unlearn what you have learned to find yourself and not to be what you are teached through life.... Learn to be alone, if it is possible at all in your life :) Good hunt finding yourself....
It’s really inspiring me knowing there are some philosophical videos books waiting for me to explore. Thank u!
“Bad thing are the best education that could ever happen to you” 💯
I started my journey fueled with passion to achieve goals (career) that i desired in my life more than 1 year ago. Lately, the previous 2 weeks was the end of that journey as i was exposed to many things in life that are so contradicted with my belief and goals I'd set before. Now I accidentally find this podcast that seems to be a possibility to help me with my depression i'm having right now. Hope it can solve it.
It's not the medium, it's the people who use it.
Or are being used by it.
Robert is such a sincerely good human who genuinely gives what he has learned to others. I will always support him by purchasing his books. ❤❤❤
Kidding me????! No and no. Open eyes.
I love the way he teaches. Without judgment. Absolutely no hate in his soul.
I am aware of my dark side had to go into it because I was a victim of being involved with a cult unknowingly, was guided by a close partner. His mom tongue kissed me unwilling and sucked my life, after that I was broken mentally. They never thought I would prevail. but God spoke to me that I would overcome. He is putting me on a mission to speak about My Life.
The formation of the ego is all about separation so here is the evidence that every human is a narcissist
This was an interesting conversation. Unusually I noticed I was a little annoyed with the flow of the interview, like Dr Chatterjee was often not responding to what Mr Greene had said but moving onto another point. This lead me to wonder what it was in my own life that it was triggering. Maybe an inability to fully listen and respond to people because I am distracted with my thoughts?
Thank you both for an interesting video.
If this video helps you, it's prolly all you need, but don't listen to people, when you have been listening to people all the time and it never helped! At some point you know if you tried hard enought to fit into a certain pattern or expectations of society. At some point you got to say "F it", I know what's good for me and I am going to do it for myself and not for expectations or society!
Don't listen to me also, this comment is also an influence that doesn't have to be true for you! WE are DIFFERENT, eventhough we are all human!
Brilliant conversation with a brilliant man.
You learn a whole lot about people by the way they drive.
?
Drive a vehicle? lol
@@ErickeverRB duh..yeah..you do, don't ya?
Thank you one of my favorite videos for trying to improve my day to day. And of course, the pillow of Jacques🙏🏽
Deep. Loved this. Thanks both

Let all the forces of this earth and universe bless us human beings to live
Most of us live lifestyles that objectively require exploitation of resources, other people, and the ecosystem for our expected level of lifestyle and consumption. We are objectively destroying the world for our children. We must deny this reality to ourselves to avoid despair, but the cost of this lie is the loss of our empathy. If we had empathy enough to see this insanity, we would surely go insane.
Thank you both. Very informative 👏 👌
Feels like it's impossible watch UA-cam these days without someone saying Donald Trump.
Excellent! ❤️ Thank you 🙏
Conclusion: We all are human but don't know exactly what being a human is about.
What a fantastic conversation!!! And hank you!
This dude smart asl
It's really an insightful conversation .got to learn lot about human nature .human nature is really fascinating ...thnk you dr.ranjan and Dr .green for this wonderful conversation
dude, it ain't hard for me to admit i'm envious of certain things. i'm envious of beautiful people, i'm envious of rich people, i'm envious of brilliant people, i'm envious of funny people.
but i don't let it eat me alive, and i don't let it dominate my thoughts. but it's def there. seems crazy immature to me for someone to exclaim they *aren't* envious of anyone or anything.
Hi. I live in Russia. I really like your channel, but Russia does not understand what you are talking about on the channel. Can I translate your videos and post them on the UA-cam channel. So that many people who speak Russian can become a little more human than they are now?
Facebook dating kicked me off their dating site. Oh oh my bad!
Wonderful! Exactly what I needed to hear right now. Thank you
I thought envy was about wanting to be like another - that could be seen as a quality in that it inspires. Jealousy is wanting what another has, taking it from them. That seems to be what’s being described here. Jealousy is where the suffering lies imo
Yeah fair point.
No envy is more evil. Jealousy is when you simply wish or want what someone else has. Envy is not only do you want what they have, you also want them not to have it. You wish something bad would happen to them
Oh no I admit I have envy!! I use it as inspiration!! I also cheer for others!!
This really tells me how he thinks. I certainly work with a lot of good people who are selfless and clearly not envious and push other ahead to succeed. I'd hate to live in his world. 😢
I've frequently been frustrated with this - with "normal" conversation where it goes so fast and no one seems to REALLY listen. Inspirting-I'm going to work on my listening skills, listening deeply. I know with clients I can do this deeply, but I want to improve on listening to my partner.
Sounds like where I've been trapped and blocked from getting out of!
Starving children with food envy. Grown men talking and saying interesting. Heroes.
32:07 key!!! I had a talk therapy psychiatrist who would ALWAYS walk in front of me and this was afterhours so the office was empty and that made it more uncomfortable and uncomfortable
Being self absorbed is not the definition of a narcissist and NPD, or narcissistic personality disorder, is really complicated because it happens in childhood when the ego fails to adequately develop. Then the narcissist creates a false grandiose or victim persona that he/she uses to draw energy off other people. The person who has NPD is never happy or content. It's a truly empty and miserable state of existence and extremely difficult (although not impossible for the expert) to cure or even treat.
