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.

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.

Such a GEM of a conversation. Thank you so much guys, for sharing this with us!

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.

I'm still learning a lot from Me. Greene, thank you for this interview.

What a wonderful stellar interview. Robert Greene is an transparent, eloquent, incredible human being

This interview is so incredibly helpful! Will listen to this so many times! ❤

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.

Thank you one of my favorite videos for trying to improve my day to day. And of course, the pillow of Jacques🙏🏽

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.

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! ❤👏

Great conversation. The last part is really awesome and can help many people 🙏🏼

This is truly fantastic, I have read many of Robert's books and for me this is his best interview yet. Thank you.

Refreshing

Love this interview 🎉🎉❤

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!

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.

So interesting!

He's right. I'm half listening to Robert right now.

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 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.

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.

Behaviour patterns Important skill

@Ryan Holiday I have been listening to your podcasts and have started reading your books. I’m not a traditional philosopher, but I enjoy listening and reading a variety of topics that allow insight into the human condition and consciousness. This specific podcast made me think of another book I’ve recently read called The Places That Scare You by Pema Chodron. The term for the practices of a level of stoicism and self awareness but which offers empathy and compassion is called “bodhichitta” in this book. This is a warrior practice in Buddhism. I hope this adds to the conversation here.

One of the best videos I have seen in a long time

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

Robert is pure genius! I’m obsessed with him! Brilliant men

Always love listening to Robert Greene and Dr. Chatterjee is an amazing interviewer! Thank you both for bringing this insightful talk to us!

I found out when I was a teenager that if I paid close enough attention to foreigners who were speaking to each other in their own language, I could decipher what they were talking about. I never studied other languages, so I found that fascinating. And it puzzled them, too, when I could help them out with directions to places they were trying to find. I did this often with the foreign exchange students who came to the US.

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.

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.

Let all the forces of this earth and universe bless us human beings to live

I find my issue is ,I have too much self awareness. Not sure if that's more negative than positive..

So insightful 👌👌👌👌

I can't imagine who these people think they are, deciding that any life is less worthy than others. There is no single formula for living. People are social animals except those who are not. People need a sense of purpose except those who don't. It's not helpful to listen to people when one isn't interested in the particular person. It may be more useful for some people to more honest and let others know they are not interested and would rather think about themselves at the moment. Humans are a complicated species with a range of experiences and drives. It only makes people feel sad and displaced to keep harping on about how to fit in. Not everyone needs to feel good or to change. For some people there's a huge benefit in honouring every feeling as it arises and sticking with it through a deep process. Proselytizing that something is wrong with someone can be demoralizing and lead to persistent anxiety. There is nothing wrong with anyone and reinforcing their sense that they are defective doesn't help. Fair enough to respond to people who ask for help. But, does it help to join them in feeling they are defective?

Mr. Greene is so insightful. I love his talks!

I have a lot of narcissist traits not proud of it but I notice them and need to work on becoming better

Can you speak more on the pond life you spoke ok in your last book on love

Good looking dude

The meeting of two great minds. wow this was so helpful to understand what is going on in these modern times. Thanks for posting!

Robert’s point at the end where he says that when you’re young you should keep in mind that you don’t have time, and as a result you won’t get comfortable and complacent, is correct, and it’s something I follow. However, I have to point out that it does create anxiety within me, where if I feel I’m stagnating, I get obsessed with thinking of my next steps to move forward and then ultimately take action. I think Robert would agree with that if pointed out, as he said in the interview that he himself faces a lot of anxiety. This isn’t a criticism of his point, but I feel it’s an important byproduct of that mindset to point out

Chase Hughes is a superb expert to start with developing body language analysis and how to master this. He is also on the Behaviour Channel.

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.
