Robert Greene: How to Achieve Total Mastery

[@joeloclemente]

“The value that you get is much greater than the pain.” Greene

[@tumishomagagula2.035]

That's a quote derived from the Bible

[@MS113MS]

Exactly! 👍

[@ExpandOurAwareness]

Incredible interview and insight. I watched the opening question and answer multiple times and I love Robert's response, that "if you want a shortcut you are not very well suited to becoming a master" to "master anything you need patience" "embrace the pain" . However, reading, studying, watching KZbin Informational/Mentor Videos, and other available ways to learn should speed up or slow down the process of becoming a master depending on the value of the information. Of course the awareness of the individual learning is paramount.

[@user-zx6dg5vx2e]

He shares imperative, diversified content that he brings into oneness breaks it into a whole

[@manjunathsl24]

I like the phrase, Embrace the Pain, it's great, good for us.

[@Mrfoo2002]

One of the best books I’ve ever read

[@BradCarr_]

agreed!

[@niruvision]

As naval would say; It isn’t 10,000 hours that creates outliers, it’s 10,000 iterations. Reflection vs experience….

[@Nimastory]

I agree. 10.000 hours can look immensely different

[@238BibleStudies]

Ahh...great interview! Very helpful & useful. Thanks for sharing, James

[@BradCarr_]

Glad it was helpful!

[@musabalakolo8761]

Wow, hope this interview is recent, Roberts looking great! Wish you good health Sir.

[@robertogringa1521]

Mr. Greene spitting out epic wisdom as usual 🔥👍

[@MasteryOrder]

If you want to pursue mastery and masculinity, I invite you to explore the videos on the Mastery Order Channel. Challenge yourself with some ideas about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire. We can only chase excellence together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and share your own opinions and criticism so that we can all grow stronger and wiser. All the best to you!

To achieve mastery, Roberts' insight is a good bet. It's always refreshing to listen to this genius

[@HenryGhost-dx9gb]

😂he isn’t a genius according to him , he has mastered what he does

[@bacharkerroubasse5966]

Very good

[@livinginPantopia]

You basically need at least 5 years to 10 years to blossom. But it takes up to 30 years to bring the sweetest fruits. An other measure is in terms of age, while practicing wholeheartedly of course. Reaching 50 is major milestone for mastery. Sorry you young, gorgeous people. You can't have everything. Enjoy the ride!

​@@C4rneeI agree with you. Most of the crucial discoveries for science, mathematics technologies were done by people under 40, at most 45. Like 90% of the biggest breakthroughs. even maybe 95% or more.

Usted maestro, pues para que escribiera las leyes de la naturaleza humana leyó cerca de 300 libros y tardo cerca de cinco años y todavía tuvo un problema de salud. Lo admiro profundamente Maestro ROBERT GREENE.

[@Hwaigon]

I'm like, gonna read all his books, I gues???

[@user-pm4ck3pr6p]

You are an incredible teacha. I just love your teaching methods

[@wearethefruitoftheuniverse]

Mastery, the time taken to internalize the outside world functions into your subconscious through repetition

[@bjsfdxlichen]

Hello, thanks for this great video. In the conversation, Robert mentioned there is a great study investigating the 10000 hour rules for being a master. Do you know the name of the research study or book? Thanks!

Another more modern book on this topic is "Talent is Overrated" What Really Separates World Class Performers from Everybody Else" by Geoffrey Colvin.

[@paulwavamuno4617]

Knowledge is power, reading is the execise of brain

[@Nhurgle]

Having a mentor is not a shortcut, it's not a crutch either, it's just working smart imo.

[@TT-nt1yr]

Working smart which creates a shortcut

[@owlnyc666]

This must have been done before his stroke. "Embrace pain." I have many mentors. Napoleon the Mozart of warfare. Master organizer. Frustration is good for you. Nobody learns from winning. 😎🦉

[@BradCarr_]

yes, it was just a few day before Robert's stroke

[@YG1989Natty]

That’s irrelevant, he would still say the same.

Is he good now tho

[@kevirulezz]

Vaxxed?

[@proverbalizer]

The 10,000hour rule is not really a rule, just an estimate. 2 people who put the same amount of time into something aren't gonna get the same results. Talent is a shortcut, passion is a shortcut, focus is a shortcut....if you're just going through the motions your hours are not the same as someone doing it with intense focus. Also practicing with the right technique and the right strategy is a shortcut instead of randomly messing around with poor technique and poor planning of your practice time. You're learning also depends on other factors like sleep and nutrition I can easily spend 10,000 hours playing basketball and never achieve the mastery of Hakeem Olajuwan even though I started playing obsessively in elementary school and he didn't start playing until his late teens.

[@csantana1]

greene is a hack

[@TheCsePower]

No I think you would. At least mentally. Robert isn't talking about the physical aspect. Also remember it's 10000 hours of challenging and mind breaking work. Not I play around with my friends for fun kinda work. Otherwise we would all be experts at speaking english because we do it effortlessly all the time.

[@Nimastory]

I can't entirely agree with the ten thousand hours. If you practice something for ten thousand hours with feedback loops and expert help, surely it must be a HUGE difference than to practice 10.000 hours alone. Robert says that the difference is slightly better, but indeed 2000 super effective hours where you learned from the best and been at your best beats 10.000 lazy hours alone where you're not really learning. But overall, a great video with a lot of good points.

[@boyfanplaceswift1886]

How to shortcut ? Have a mentor

[@taopaille-paille4992]

Not always the case. Depends what you study. Learning something technical and scientific doesn't require a mentor. Better even not have one. Books and resources are sufficient, and painfully making your way into a good understanding of the topic will be more efficient than asking questions to expert. However, learning something artistic such as music or theatre most often requires a mentor.

[@marktapley7571]

Greene’s analysis of Napoleon is peculiar I think. While some of his campaigns were very well executed, some such as Egypt and his fiasco in Russia were disastrous. Lots of Napoleon’s success can really be attributed to his second in command and to his cavalry commander. Neither one were at his last campaign against Blucher, causing serious blunders to be made that resulted in Napoleon’s defeat 4 days later at Waterloo, with the arrival of the Austrians that bled Napoleon’s resources too much. Napoleon failed due mainly to three factors. First, this venal thug’s ego got the best of him. Second, his physical health deteriorated as he got older so that he could not stay up for days, covering every critical detail as he had done when younger, so he relied more on others and finally his opponents adopted many of his tactics and began to do a better job. A much better general (and much better moral character) was Robert E. Lee who was called in to take over after the wounding of Johnson when it appeared that the south was on the verge of defeat by the much bigger and better equipped northern forces. Most military analysts expected the agrarian south with very limited resources and manpower, to last only three months. More than anything else, because of Robert E.Lee’s brilliant tactics, the south lasted over four years and would have won the pivotal battle of Gettysburg (rolling the north back to Washington) if not for failure of Lee’s subordinate officers.

I want to write in books but I can’t write in them because I want to go back and read them.

[@jabo_o]

04:40 Almost never in my life I have put that in a lot of work and then felt that the inherent reward was worth it. The two exceptions are avoiding negative consequence and inflicting violence onto someone annoying. This gets you punished and then it's not worth it anymore. So fuck me but I won't master shit.

[@giulias.5104]

Would love to have Robert's date, time, and place of birth to see his natal chart. Quite sure he has Saturn/Mars conjuction or haevy aspect. Would be interesting to know where (I can relate a lot to his life and I have the same combo). Saw that he born in L.A. on May 14th 1959, time is unknown. If anybody can ask him would be awesome. 🤐😉

[@Yogis406]

Me too! I study astrology as well 😊

[@Yogis406]

I looked up JP’s chart after thinking to myself he has a Mercury Pluto aspect and I was right. I also thought Anthony Hopkins was a Capricorn and I was right about that too. 😊

[@justCommando]

I did not like Robert Greene. This video played while I was driving and I couldn’t change it, but I have changed my mind about Robert Greene.

[@keithrobert5117]

Mr Greene is such a clever guy because he understands that human nature is unchanging. And that simple fact is the antidote to liberalism and the Revolution. He also explains how to do well in life, through the application of some simple rules.

[@adriansidor4725]

Haha, I love how he annihilated him and his mindset and approach straight away

So basically you need at least 2 years of experience

2 years if you're practicing 12+ hours a day sure, but most people can't do that. It takes a lot longer than that for most people. It often takes more than double that.

Well, not to be too critical, but "Mastery" is a book I am regretting buying. It simply did not deliver, in my opinion. It basically is a thick book with tons of stories of the lives of successful and famous people. Sure, it can surely be interesting as a collection of stories, but it does not do any real attempt of explaining or giving advice on how achive "mastery". I guess the idea is if enough stories are spammed, the reader will learn from the examples somehow. Maybe some people can do that, but I constantly read one chapter, then the next and so on and after each chapter my only though was "Yes, ok, so what? Will there not be any attempt by the author to make some analysis and reflections?"

So, are you saying you have mastered the ability to discern who has mastery and who does not, over the subjects on which they write? I would really be interested in reading your book, article, monograph, editorial, etc., on how you were able to arrive at such a sweeping conclusion with such complete and utter confidence. References? Pure genius, sir.
