@@True38 I see where it shows that, but also I see the possibility of these people putting on a front because they’re cockiness is part of there character that I powers them, they probably know how to be cocky in the right time which make people admire them more than anything
Thank you for sharing this. This is important information, especially when Mr. Greene delves into the danger of trusting toxic people. "No one ever does anything once." "Don't try to change people." "Don't be naive." Very useful advice!
i know Im randomly asking but does someone know a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
This was BY FAR the best episode in my opinion. Robert Green is amazing. I could listen to him speak for hours! But... I'm truly grateful for your vulnerability in this episode, Lewis... more powerful than you can imagine.
"Instead of judging others, start to accept them...", isn't this the remedy to the majority of our current challenges in our society? Another wonderful and tremendously valuable conversation! Thanks Lewis😊
It's incredible how composed he is, for someone who has just suffered a stroke. The modern day Machiavelli, his name is already written in the history books - thank you for writing these masterpieces man!
@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt yes many,but not all. I've seen many in my line of work that got treatment early and still had deficits. A more accurate way to view it is that early treatment with tpa if it's not a hemorrhagic stroke, reduces the damage.
Feels great to see Robert is in better shape! I pre-ordered his book and I already went over half. It's the best book I ever read. Unbelievable research process behind it.
Yeah people really don't understand the importance of this author. He is incredible, one of the great authors of our time, and if you're a fan like me you've been waiting a while for his work. His book Mastery really shook me up and set me on a different course. I would say Mastery is his best work, but of course many will disagree, but it is so valuable in this time of social media and influencers...... Robert has a great skill of presenting deep, factual and relevant information, in other words - Truth.
Emotional intelligence is so important. And we will never get it if we keep away from connecting to other people! But I think it is also very important to work in different fields, collecting different perspectives and being able to understand each other. I realized that it is also a hard thing to make others understand your point of view if they focused only on one thing for their whole life.
@@MonicaSancio Some people have one job for their whole life, sometimes they come home, their family does everything else for them. I think this is a problem where people have been specialized and focusing on only on specific task in their job. The more different things you experienced in your life, different jobs, different people you speak to, the more perspectives you will collect and the more you can understand other people. I think it will change a lot more in the future and the next generations will have to learn continuously, because our world is changing much faster.
If you are talking about a family member of yours, then that is a whole different animal. The last person someone will let change their mind about something is a member of their own family. If you're talking about somebody else, then it should be easy since you already know exactly what's important to them and can express ideas in a framework built around that.
On point! Love how you articulated this point. A lot of people think in a linear way and not from a different perspective. Experience is the only to overcome this barrier.
In ONE word Robert’s new Book is PARAMOUNT! I say Robert you’re like Neil Armstrong, you’re landing us all into a new world of awareness that allows us to intimately CONNECT WITH OURSELVES!!! Thank you for your PARAMOUNT book, you’re an inspiration to us all and a wonderful human being. God’s speed in 2019 and please rest for a while because we’re going to need time to chew and digest your new life changing book 😎
I'm only a few hours into the Laws of Human Nature audiobook and I already can tell that it's Robert's most significant work yet. Great interview as always!
Robert Greene!!! I’m so happy he’s back with a new book. I’ve read everything he’s written, each book is packed with life-changing wisdom. Stoked to get the Laws of Human Nature ♥️
I pre-ordered this book on Kindle. I am amazed to see over 153 reviews on amazon already. Not because it is deserving of 5 stars. This is an EPIC book on human psychology, spirituality, self-improvement etc... While I glanced through the chapters, to understand the topics, this is NOT a book you just read. It's a book you live. You incorporate into your life piece by piece. You have to read it slowly because it is the human condition to forget. Just reading it through is a disservice. You must read it slowly. Contemplate each chapter. Because like most things, it is the human condition to forget. It's almost overwhelming if you just read it and hope to bring these things into you life. Having read so much spirituality, psychology, persuasion, books on peak potential, he has incorporated just about all the principles I've been reading and working with for more than 30 years. Honestly, taking a year to read this book and work with the principles might be an appropriate time period to work this material and the rest of your life to hone it. This is well beyond Tony Robbins, STephen Covey, Dale Carnegie, or the stuff that Scott Adams, and Robert Ciadini are putting out, as good as these things are. You'll find some of the principles on Laws of Attitude in more esoteric books. The way he weaves the principles with stories and illustrations is brilliant and will fufill his goal to make these principles accessible. I probably also buy a hard copy although I'm buying most of my purchases books are on kindle now. BRAVO Robert Greene! Simply BRAVO!! This book is an instant classic and will stand the test of time!!

Robert Greene has become one of my favorite human beings presently alive. He's earnest yet easy going and not too mention a hell of a hard worker. Huge inspiration. Thank you for this interview Lewis Howes. :)
Robert Greene, just listening to him, looking at him...so admirable, his insights are truly valuable and very deep. I have read the Art of Seduction so far and I find it fascinating! A book I would not want to part with. There are so many other contributions he has made with his extensive and introspective research into human nature...looking forward to discovering the rest of his works. You are a delight Robert Greene!.
I remember discovering the School of Greatness podcast back in 2013 when Robert was doing promotion for Mastery on episode #1! Happy to see it come back full circle 5 years later. Congratulations on your success Lewis! You earned it!
I love Robert Greene and his books are just amazing! I’m reading it half way. He saved my life. I’m so glad to meet him through his book and this video! Thanks Lewis for your amazing work! You are just amazing !
I just want to hug Mr. Robert Greene and Lewis Howes very tightly and say thank you !! This interview made me talk to my inner self..changed my thinking..I crossed my fingers that one day I will meet both of you.. ❤️✌🏻😊..thank you again..
The essence of a gentleman. Finally, refreshing, valuable, trustworthy, accurate. Truly amazing. Five years of self doubt, of research, of fear, of questioning, of health challenges on top of it. Funny how a towering yet humble, kind, human, nice, good man obviously never will finish last: rather, he rises to the top of modern writers, thinkers. Empathy, open mindedness, caring for others while seeking to know them; today a man stands to inspire us, make us better people, supposedly human.
Man, Lewis is a lot cooler then I thought. This interview with Robert Greene was great, but what really did it for me was when Lewis spoke personally about his self. I have trouble overcoming my past and hearing his story and seeing where he is now is a great inspiration. Look forward to seeing more.
Mr. Green tries to be fair and balanced in his assessments of himself and others. I love his common sense advice/wisdom. It takes someone very sensitive, intuitive, introspective to evaluate the complexities of human nature. I pray for his complete recovery. I'm wondering if he's a INFP? Mr. Howes is a great listener, displays interest and the right amount of participation and sharing of his own experiences. I enjoyed their talk, it was more like two friends sharing. I appreciate these men, they are down to earth in the way they open their hearts, makes them humble/likeable in my view. Thank you.
CONGRATS, Lewis, you are a such a Greatness Example, and absolutely a Master of Interviews... How Robert Greene congratulated you with no excess flattery: just TRUTH! THANK YOU for changing the world through your generosity, discipline and great kindness! 🙌🏼💜⭐️💪🏼☕️🤗 💖😘 🎉
Listing to Robert is like diving into topics and seeing things beyond mask. And Lewis is by far the best interviewers. He bring the best answers from best people.
I bought the book right away. Mr. Howes, I cried hearing about your life story. This is the first one I watched, of many interviews to come! Thank you for sharing it with us.
Nothing happens until we create the space for awareness to show up. I am going to toot your horn for you...ROBERT GREENE you are amazing. Just bought my audible copy and can't wait to get to it. I am so grateful that I found your work!! Take good care of yourself MR. GREENE. I want to take this opportunity to share another awesome book SIX PILLARS OF SELF ESTEEM by Nathanial Branden I think this book is a great foundational book that helps the reader understand and deconstruct the negative elements of our upbringing and provides meaningful ways to overcome them.
Mr. Greene great to see you are in great spirits. Thank you for your obsession and sharing it with us through your books. The first book I ever bought with my own money was the 48 Laws of Power. I'm a big fan!
I never tire of listening to Robert Greene, I love him and his books 📚 If I can learn a fraction of his knowledge in my lifetime, I will be happy with that.
Sensational podcast. I got here because I'm a fan of Robert but now I'm staying on watching other videos because of your gorgeous vulnerability you revealed here...you have won a new fan.
Respect to Robert Greene, be yourself, you don't have to switch your voice to please other people or be little your culture to fit in with the dominant society you can be yourself and be successful. I hope we can unify as a nation and show love to one another. Peace love and happiness, thank you Robert Greene!!! Wish you all the best!
The interviewer made this an incredible interview. I can see why Lewis says his vulnerability and openness changed his life. I could listen to these two talk about this book for hours everyday.
I believe that Mr. Greene is one of the most brilliant writers in the modern times, he gave a lot of effort on this book. It is straightforward and hits your soul very hard. If I have read The 48 Laws of Power when I was younger, I think would have been looking at life in a better perspective. Yet, it is never too late
Finished LoHN yesterday. Has entered my all time ten favourite books. This is his best. If you read Mastery and this book, the sky above is yours to tame.
You must understand that Robert to me sounds like one of the most individualistic men of our century. You can tell he has dove further into himself and his mind than most people he comes into contact with. With this inner knowledge comes IMMENSE psychological challenges and problems that most would never even think of. The largest problems in life are never solved, they are simply grown out of. Whatever Robert is going through, we may never know or even if we did know, may never actually understand. Dealing with people who haven't experienced the depths of their own inner humanity can become stressful in communication. Robert seems changed beyond comprehension. You can tell reading his books, that the knowledge within him is almost incomprehensible. As he said, he discarded the first draft of the 50 book because it 'wasn't him'. Writing allows him a one on one journey uninhibited by others myopic remarks or distracting ideas.
Great interview. Robert greene is such a gentle soul and soo humble. I thank the gods that he wrote these books and was able to share his knowledge with the world.
Michael karanja your comment is perfect so beautifully said. Robert is truly such a beautiful spirit unbelievably full of light and love and I'm not sure if he even realizes it
YESSS!! Robert Greene was the first author and set of books that I Started to read. It led me to watching his interviews, which led me to Tom Bilyeu and you Lewis. Thanks for bringing Robert on the show! Amazing Interview!
This is better than a college education. Thank you , big respect to Mr Greene, im a bit fan of all his books. Thank you Lewis for having him and sharing with us!!!
@ 25:45 We protect how we feel about ourselves. Melee are masters of reading this, and mirror back the behaviour we expect. This is a real problem for, say women or ethnic minorities who have been raised by or surrounded by people who teach them that they are "less than". Also anyone who has been in an abusive relationship (also contributes to why is so difficult to get out). Trauma or extended mistreatment on anyone can set off a feedback loop that keeps them somehow stuck in a disadvantaged positions. Can be tricky and difficult to break past this. It's also why society that helps everyone improve, also help society. This can be a positive feedback loop for society and individuals alike. This positive feedback also adds stability counteracting little wrinkles of error. "Tipping points" (up or down) are related.
Honestly, this guy is amazing! His books are awesome, and really rewarding, I’m digesting the laws of seduction and boy what a read that is!! So I’m totally hyped about getting this book as I believe it will be even more relatable to me
Robert Greene’s explanation of my shadow side resembles mine. I need freedom and anything that restricts that grinds my gears (family guy. Reference ) lol. I love the honesty on how both men open up about their vulnerabilities.
Never heard of this man and gave it a go... was pleasantly surprised. He was so genuine and forthright about life and relationships. Really liked him a lot.
Such an amazing interview! Robert Greene is my most favorite writer and his work has been really influential in my life and I'm sure they have touched so many people around the world. Lewis, your interviewing skills are amazing, such great questions you asked him. I appreciate what you;re doing to help people.
Such an incredible interview. Love to see an intellect like Robert Greene just be blown away by your questioning. Really great work diving deeper into the mind of an incredible human being.
@@lewishowes I connected a lot with Robert on the understanding of the powers of manipulation and yet avoiding their usage to truly make strong connections with others. I read so many psychology and marketing books and yet I primarily use this knowledge for understanding rather than influential purposes. However, I also see the ability to make positive impact with this knowledge and try to do so sparingly as I know there's a dark side that can be utilized. I also enjoyed the talk on change and being open to it as being a positive attitude and being closed as a negative attitude. I see this so often and in these circumstances try to help other's open up. I also try to use this knowledge to see if maybe I am being the closed one. Will definitely have to pick up this book, but will have to wait until I finish my current bundle of books haha 😅
@@user-xedwsg I don't know I've been watching videos about his new book while reading it and I've seen it mentioned a few times. I don't really know the details but I hope he will be okay.
I brought this book yesterday. I was also traveling and listening to the Audio version on RUclips! For the ones that can't go out and purchase the book it's on RUclips!! Nice work.. Get well soon.
Lewis - can I just say that you've done a superb job interviewing Robert. Your questions (and your silence) are deep and dig deeper. Thank you and well done.
What makes Robert greens books so interesting is the fact it speaks directly to the soul. What I mean by this is there is no fluff or waffle, each message has been lived and thought about immensely, thus making for powerful life lessons which can literally hit you directly to the core waking you up from naivety. This style of brutal truths cutting straight through like a razor will appeal only to the strong, however - if you're naive, stubborn or deluded perhaps stick to books like ''the secret' XD
Greene is too pragmatic for Peterson, who is very obtuse and abstract at times. As seen from this video, Greene doesn't have the vocal presence to really dive deep with Peterson. I enjoyed Peterson's book, but Greene's work is on a whole other level of insight and depth. 5 years ago it would have been interesting but Peterson has fallen for the seduction of fame and power and is more pundit/rhetorician than professor right now.
This is the best interview with Robert Greene I have yet to hear, and I'm a HUGE fan! Fantastic job Lewis! Looking forward to listening again tomorrow.
What I like about Robert Greene is that he is not just talking out of his ass, but actually researches all his books so thoroughly! there are way too many people in personal development out there who just write about what they feel and how they would like the world to be. I want my own work to be like Robert Greene's: based on research and facts.🙂
Uhhh, that's the basic concept behind science... don't interpret the world as you want it to be, interpret it as it presents itself. Nothing new or novel here, and R.G. seems to have struck it rich selling common sense to idiots.
I am amazed that after all you have gone through (at 57.21), you have never given up.... and now you are helping others to not give up...Loving the episode :)
It has been said - The key to success and happiness is knowing what to overlook . I overlook the vast majority of human input and have become Very wealthy and happy .

Lewis Howes is the best interviewer ever... look how he made Robert Greene sip his tea at 5:14 with that question that contradicted him... I also remember when he made grant cardon gasp on air when he said flip 90 grand to 900,000 million through 10x. Lewis Howes is the Greatest!
I love Robert Greene . His work should be required reading for humanity. The enlightenment he shares even to the harming of his own body is true sacrifice. Thank you Mr. Greene. I am truly humbled by your humility and dedication. Thank you Lewis & staff for your genuine compassion for your listeners. I feel like I should pay for what you offer and the fact that you do this willingly speaks volumes about your character
For a man who knows everything about the laws of power, he is an incredibly humble man.
thats one of his 48 laws of power

Nothing happens until we create the space for awareness to show up. I am going to toot your horn for you...ROBERT GREENE you are amazing. Just bought my audible copy and can't wait to get to it. I am so grateful that I found your work!! Take good care of yourself MR. GREENE. I want to take this opportunity to share another awesome book SIX PILLARS OF SELF ESTEEM by Nathanial Branden I think this book is a great foundational book that helps the reader understand and deconstruct the negative elements of our upbringing and provides meaningful ways to overcome them.
Mr. Greene great to see you are in great spirits. Thank you for your obsession and sharing it with us through your books. The first book I ever bought with my own money was the 48 Laws of Power. I'm a big fan!
I never tire of listening to Robert Greene, I love him and his books 📚 If I can learn a fraction of his knowledge in my lifetime, I will be happy with that.
Sensational podcast. I got here because I'm a fan of Robert but now I'm staying on watching other videos because of your gorgeous vulnerability you revealed here...you have won a new fan.
Respect to Robert Greene, be yourself, you don't have to switch your voice to please other people or be little your culture to fit in with the dominant society you can be yourself and be successful. I hope we can unify as a nation and show love to one another. Peace love and happiness, thank you Robert Greene!!! Wish you all the best!
Robert Greene one of Favorites Authors. I didn’t know he had a stroke. Salute for keeping it going 💯💪🏿
The interviewer made this an incredible interview. I can see why Lewis says his vulnerability and openness changed his life. I could listen to these two talk about this book for hours everyday.
Thank you Robert Greene and Lewis Howes for this interview. It was great. So many thought provoking questions to think about and to answer for myself.
I believe that Mr. Greene is one of the most brilliant writers in the modern times, he gave a lot of effort on this book. It is straightforward and hits your soul very hard. If I have read The 48 Laws of Power when I was younger, I think would have been looking at life in a better perspective. Yet, it is never too late
The best book I ever read. It’s already change my way of viewing the world. I can’t wait your next book.
Robert Greene’s sincerity is what is so moving about him.
He cares and that is clear.
🙏
Robert Greene I am well read in three languages, I think u are a great thinker and the top writer in our time .
Or you're one of the bottom intellects of our time.
Bizarre that people are fascinated by common sense.
@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt you certainly behave like you belong to this bottom group
Finished LoHN yesterday. Has entered my all time ten favourite books. This is his best. If you read Mastery and this book, the sky above is yours to tame.
oh really looking for the next book to read, I'm rereading LOHN incase i missed anything 😇😇😇
Robert just so you know all.your books have had an impact on my life, thanks
You must understand that Robert to me sounds like one of the most individualistic men of our century. You can tell he has dove further into himself and his mind than most people he comes into contact with. With this inner knowledge comes IMMENSE psychological challenges and problems that most would never even think of. The largest problems in life are never solved, they are simply grown out of. Whatever Robert is going through, we may never know or even if we did know, may never actually understand. Dealing with people who haven't experienced the depths of their own inner humanity can become stressful in communication. Robert seems changed beyond comprehension. You can tell reading his books, that the knowledge within him is almost incomprehensible. As he said, he discarded the first draft of the 50 book because it 'wasn't him'. Writing allows him a one on one journey uninhibited by others myopic remarks or distracting ideas.
That was an amazing interview because I feel I can expand my limits after listening to Author Robert Green. Thanks
Man, I hope to meet ROBERT GREENE one day. It would mean the world to me. His books are changing my life for the better.
Robert Greene's books will red pill the sht out of anyone at the cellular level.
I've known this stuff instinctually, since I was a child
Comment of the decade.

@@narutovskiba88 can I squish your nose?
WHICH BOOK SPECIIFCALLY WOULD YOOU SAY IS THE BEST AND MOST APPLICABLE TO DAILY LIFE
Robert Greene has truly changed my life 🙌🏻
Great interview. Robert greene is such a gentle soul and soo humble. I thank the gods that he wrote these books and was able to share his knowledge with the world.
Michael karanja your comment is perfect so beautifully said. Robert is truly such a beautiful spirit unbelievably full of light and love and I'm not sure if he even realizes it
Karanja kenyan Bro you are absolutely right
I've watched several interviews for Robert Greene. This one by far is the best one
YESSS!! Robert Greene was the first author and set of books that I Started to read. It led me to watching his interviews, which led me to Tom Bilyeu and you Lewis. Thanks for bringing Robert on the show! Amazing Interview!
This is better than a college education. Thank you , big respect to Mr Greene, im a bit fan of all his books. Thank you Lewis for having him and sharing with us!!!
@ 25:45 We protect how we feel about ourselves. Melee are masters of reading this, and mirror back the behaviour we expect.
This is a real problem for, say women or ethnic minorities who have been raised by or surrounded by people who teach them that they are "less than". Also anyone who has been in an abusive relationship (also contributes to why is so difficult to get out). Trauma or extended mistreatment on anyone can set off a feedback loop that keeps them somehow stuck in a disadvantaged positions. Can be tricky and difficult to break past this.
It's also why society that helps everyone improve, also help society.
This can be a positive feedback loop for society and individuals alike. This positive feedback also adds stability counteracting little wrinkles of error.
"Tipping points" (up or down) are related.
Thank you again for bringing Robert Greene, one of the best thinkers to date. His books are truly applicable in our daily lives.
Honestly, this guy is amazing! His books are awesome, and really rewarding, I’m digesting the laws of seduction and boy what a read that is!! So I’m totally hyped about getting this book as I believe it will be even more relatable to me
Listening to Robert Greene always make me wanna clear my throat.
Robert Greene’s explanation of my shadow side resembles mine. I need freedom and anything that restricts that grinds my gears (family guy. Reference ) lol. I love the honesty on how both men open up about their vulnerabilities.
Never heard of this man and gave it a go... was pleasantly surprised. He was so genuine and forthright about life and relationships. Really liked him a lot.
I hope Mr. Greene is healthy :(
Hopefully he stays healthy and gets stronger!
@@mcq31mc I pray too because I love Greene
Robert Greene is a legend , please continue to write books , we need it. Take care
Such an amazing interview! Robert Greene is my most favorite writer and his work has been really influential in my life and I'm sure they have touched so many people around the world. Lewis, your interviewing skills are amazing, such great questions you asked him. I appreciate what you;re doing to help people.
Such an incredible interview. Love to see an intellect like Robert Greene just be blown away by your questioning. Really great work diving deeper into the mind of an incredible human being.
@@lewishowes I connected a lot with Robert on the understanding of the powers of manipulation and yet avoiding their usage to truly make strong connections with others. I read so many psychology and marketing books and yet I primarily use this knowledge for understanding rather than influential purposes. However, I also see the ability to make positive impact with this knowledge and try to do so sparingly as I know there's a dark side that can be utilized.
I also enjoyed the talk on change and being open to it as being a positive attitude and being closed as a negative attitude. I see this so often and in these circumstances try to help other's open up. I also try to use this knowledge to see if maybe I am being the closed one. Will definitely have to pick up this book, but will have to wait until I finish my current bundle of books haha 😅
Its been 6 years since his last books... CHEERS for his ongoing recovery!
what happened to him?
@@user-xedwsg He had a stroke
@@propanedaddy5577 wow. when?!
@@user-xedwsg I don't know I've been watching videos about his new book while reading it and I've seen it mentioned a few times. I don't really know the details but I hope he will be okay.
I brought this book yesterday. I was also traveling and listening to the Audio version on RUclips! For the ones that can't go out and purchase the book it's on RUclips!! Nice work.. Get well soon.
My order of the book will arrive tomorrow, so excited to read it, i left my Routine wide open to finish it in one reading
It's 2 months later. How was the book?
Lewis - can I just say that you've done a superb job interviewing Robert. Your questions (and your silence) are deep and dig deeper. Thank you and well done.
This is the BEST interview on RG I’ve ever seen!
What makes Robert greens books so interesting is the fact it speaks directly to the soul. What I mean by this is there is no fluff or waffle, each message has been lived and thought about immensely, thus making for powerful life lessons which can literally hit you directly to the core waking you up from naivety. This style of brutal truths cutting straight through like a razor will appeal only to the strong, however - if you're naive, stubborn or deluded perhaps stick to books like ''the secret' XD
Great attitude by Robert Greene
My mother had a stroke I have to get her this book 📖 🙏🏼
Flagshipphotos Lou Jr - I truly hope your mother recovers, life is precious.
The book isn't about stroke treatments.
It would probably be much more useful if it were.
I am happy to see Mr Robert Healthy. May Allah protect You Mr Robert We LOVE YOU SO MUCH
Came for Robert Greene, Stayed for Lewis Howe’s! Great interview? I subscribed!
I find this man sobering, he calms me down...a powerful effect he has on people
Great visionary...
👍
I want to see Jordan Peterson and Robert Greene together
That would be one awesome
Mind Bending.
Greenterson idea
Greene is too pragmatic for Peterson, who is very obtuse and abstract at times. As seen from this video, Greene doesn't have the vocal presence to really dive deep with Peterson. I enjoyed Peterson's book, but Greene's work is on a whole other level of insight and depth. 5 years ago it would have been interesting but Peterson has fallen for the seduction of fame and power and is more pundit/rhetorician than professor right now.
Jordan Peterson is not in this guys league
This is the best interview with Robert Greene I have yet to hear, and I'm a HUGE fan! Fantastic job Lewis! Looking forward to listening again tomorrow.
What I like about Robert Greene is that he is not just talking out of his ass, but actually researches all his books so thoroughly! there are way too many people in personal development out there who just write about what they feel and how they would like the world to be.
I want my own work to be like Robert Greene's: based on research and facts.🙂
^^malcolm gladwell
Great man. You just nailed it.
100% AGREE!!!
Unlike Ryan Holiday the little wannabe
Uhhh, that's the basic concept behind science... don't interpret the world as you want it to be, interpret it as it presents itself.
Nothing new or novel here, and R.G. seems to have struck it rich selling common sense to idiots.
I am amazed that after all you have gone through (at 57.21), you have never given up.... and now you are helping others to not give up...Loving the episode :)
"The key to success in life is people."
That is utterly horrifying.
I don’t like people except in small, controlled doses.
The real key to success is the mind and memory, something God sends out to see what is going on in the world every day. Hugin and Munin.
It has been said - The key to success and happiness is knowing what to overlook . I overlook the vast majority of human input and have become Very wealthy and happy .
its not what you know, its who you know. I know Jesus.
@SamisWay john 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
I love theJewish people!! They are the only people who share their superior intelligence to the world, not keeping it among themselves fearing that other races would become more successful than them,,,,a huge applaud...really underrated.. Love from India.. Namaste
Who else wishes Robert Greene was their uncle 💯💯🔥
Really r
yup...
Yup. Certainly wish i read his book earlier.
He would get boring after awhile. I'm like him lol, I get boring
hell yah me
Lewis Howes is the best interviewer ever... look how he made Robert Greene sip his tea at 5:14 with that question that contradicted him... I also remember when he made grant cardon gasp on air when he said flip 90 grand to 900,000 million through 10x. Lewis Howes is the Greatest!
I love Robert Greene and Grant Cardone by the way but u have give it up to Lewis Howes
Thank u MR.Greene for your intellect !
Thank you gentlemen. This kind of generosity makes me grateful to be alive.
Amazing! Robert Greene is back ! #schoolofgreatness
@Book Worm933 thank you so much
I love Robert Greene . His work should be required reading for humanity. The enlightenment he shares even to the harming of his own body is true sacrifice. Thank you Mr. Greene. I am truly humbled by your humility and dedication. Thank you Lewis & staff for your genuine compassion for your listeners. I feel like I should pay for what you offer and the fact that you do this willingly speaks volumes about your
character
"That was great, thank you"
Truly. Excellent interview questions, fascinating discussion. Masterful
Robert is so humble, kind and real! What an incredible interview! I already have the book and started reading it a few days ago. #thelawsofhumannature
