My guest today, Robert Greene, knows all about human nature. His most recent work The Laws of Human Nature covers a wide range of human characteristics that are important to understand if we want to obtain success. We can tap into these characteristics to better understand people and ourselves.

Robert Greene studied at U.C. Berkley, and he received a degree in classical studies from the University of Wisconsin at Madison. 

Robert published his first book The 48 Laws of Power at the age of 36 and has since become one of our generation’s most influential writers. He’s responsible for several inventive successes, including The 33 Strategies of War, The 50th Law, Mastery, The Art of Seduction, and his most recent work The Laws of Human Nature. 

In this episode you will learn,

• How our insecurities can motivate us.
• How to determine the quality of a person’s character
• The power of believing in your own success.
• How to be persuasive.
• The importance of finding your true purpose.

Robert Greene (@RobertGreene) is the author of multiple New York Times bestsellers on power and strategy. His latest book is The Daily Laws: 366 Meditations on Power, Seduction, Mastery, Strategy, and Human Nature. [This is part two of a two-part episode. Make sure to catch part one here!]

What We Discuss with Robert Greene:

• The benefits of cultivating profound dissatisfaction with your own work while it's still in the process of being created.
• Why the attitude you have of the world has a feedback effect on the way the world sees you (and how you can change that attitude if it doesn't serve you).
• The emotional self thrives on ignorance: how focusing on the rational instead of succumbing to your feelings deprives those who prey on your emotions of their power.
• How you can balance the need to be rational, cautious, and skeptical with the benefits of being curious and open-minded to new ideas.
• What you can do to train yourself to see past the front that people put on and discover the signs of their true character.
• And much more...

What We Discuss with Robert Greene:

• The one simple reason why Robert Greene's work resonates among the hip-hop community's most accomplished artists.
• How seeing the world through a lens of radical realism allows you to be prepared for the worst life can throw your way.
• What we can do to uncover a career path that aligns with what has brought us joy in the past (hopefully before working 80 jobs we hate like Robert did prior to writing his first bestseller).
• Why we shouldn't fret if we haven't found our calling early in life -- the experiences we've had and lessons we've learned along the way combine to give us a unique edge when we finally do find it.
• Always stick to what makes you strange and weird. What made you a "weird" kid makes you an interesting adult.
• And much more...

Robert Greene (@RobertGreene) is the author of five New York Times Best Sellers. His highly anticipated sixth book, The Laws of Human Nature, is out now.

What We Discuss with Robert Greene:

• Why you can't monumentally improve your life by modifying your behavior if you don't understand what causes such behavior.
• Why it's liberating to understand that the reason other people react to you in whatever way they do has more to do with them and their own baggage than you and yours.
• How oversimplifying the impression you have of someone robs you of the ability to relate to them beyond a surface level -- and what you can do to change the game.
• Why your lower nature seems to be the default you'll fall into without effort and what it takes to tap into the potential of your higher nature.
• The difference between active and passive envy, where envy comes from, why it's so often destructive, and how you can flip envy to your benefit.
• And much more...
