Dear Robert Greene, Hello. You may not know me, but I know you. I learned of your books through word of mouth. When I started reading your book "Mastery", I could sense an entire part of my mind and my character being unlocked, a new "me", if you will. I just finished your book, and as a 16 year old, I feel like I've done myself a huge favour by reading a book that will dramatically influence my future decisions for the better. And for that, I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@mohammadsadeghlavaie5560]

As a 23 year old software engineer, in this day and age where the advances in my field of work is astronomical, the concept of mastery is extremely applicable and relatable to me. I appreciate your efforts and your books have had a huge impact on my life. I seem way more wiser and knowledgeable compared to other people in my age (and even older). Thank you.

[@CyberNancy]

I wish I had this sort of information and inspiration when I was your age.

[@ramsyrama]

[@mohammadsadeghlavaie5560]

@@iamAurel1us ‌ Hi. I believe so. Have you considered it as your future job? Because it's a kind of craft that requires patience, resilience and perseverance. If you don't have any experience, I think you should try it first and see how you feel about it. It's also an extremely vast industry, so many platforms, applications, devices etc. See what excites you the most.

I hadn’t read 48 laws until a few months ago and for good or bad I have practiced all of them naturally in my professional life. That prompted me to take a mach4 test and scored a 97.

All I can say in Two Words " Thanks Sir", moreover, your book " The 48 Laws of Power is Sparkling Gem 💎 like you , undoubtedly , our current society requires individuals reminiscent to you who can reveal brutal facts of human behaviors boldly , additionally, you also supply antidotes in overcoming challenging situations wittily as trusting someone wholeheartedly can generate emotional , financial , as well as physical harm most certainly. I am not sure if we can meet in person in this life time , hopefully we met via this online medium .

[@briandan0521]

Learning over money i think for me is key. That is a main focus. And then diligence over time is key. Finding a mentor for a specific field can be difficult. I need to reread that chapter in your book Mastery. Social inclination I feel i am getting better at, and it translates to your Law of Power, ‘Work on the Hearts and Minds of Others’ is a main thing I’m working on, though right now a majority of longer term tasks that need to be done right now I can get done on my own. Though I am practicing my social skills for the future. Fusing the intuitive with the rational is something I want to enact within fields, multiple. i feel that being open is key for that. A lot of life is just work rn so it’s all about enjoying the journey as it comes along. It’s all about work

[@CorvusTenebris]

The book is really great,but in my opinion there is not enough said about how to find your life purpose. Saying that we need to hear our inside voice is like saying nothing. I think it would be good to say how we can discover the purpose of our life, how we can hear our inside voice. How this process looks like? If anyone read this please write your opinion.

Ahhh Robert, I loved your work and I’ve just arrived to this point : maestro chuchillada. I’ve discovered that you are not the great author I thaught, just a smart person who pick up idea that interest you for the subject of your book and make it more clearly for the 21th century reader. The idea that you develop are always great quality ( sorry for my English, je vis dans la ville lumière), but you never developp your own ideas. I’m angry against you because I truly think that you can do a better work than your actual book, It’s not a lack of intelligence ( your smart), it’s just that you do not take the risk to his highest point. Jump in the greatness Robert, il ne vous reste plus qu’un pas ! We will all die ! I will die and you will die ! The only things that rest in history is greatness ! Robert don’t be the affraid boy that you were before your success, take the risk, the same risk that you took in my citie Paris, many years ago.
