Humans are incredibly powerful creatures, and we all want to portray our sense of power and never want to appear weak. Sometimes certain habits or insecurities can counteract this, but luckily today’s guest is an expert in what it takes to be truly powerful.
Robert Greene is an author and speaker known for his books on strategy, power, and seduction. Robert is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction, The 33 Strategies of War, The 50th Law, Mastery, The Laws of Human Nature, and most recently, The Daily Laws. Robert’s first book The 48 Laws of Power was released in 1998 and condensed 3 thousand years of the history of power into these very influential laws that are highly regarded by anyone seeking to unlock their true power.

Whether you are a business owner or feeling frustrated at your corporate job, Robert’s insight is highly valuable and will help you position yourself as someone of power. In today’s digital world with the ease of sharing anything we want online, it has become even more critical to understand what it takes to be powerful.

Love Mr. Greene's talks. It is not his problem if people are insecure. He mentioned that he is arrogant, maybe, but also proud. When some hear his intelligence they think he is outshinning them. Too much compliments to the Bosses, then, they would think you are a*s kissers. When you remain quiet, and do speak, it stands out! There is a cute, little dark mystery side to the writers mind when he speaks. He is very creative in his thoughts. I wonder, if this would be his last book. As the author, is still young, I'm sure he has great ideas for more books. love when an author, completes his or her book, or books earlier in life. So, there isn't that longing of his work you wish you read.

When I am weak… then I am strong. Humility is strength… Gentleness is power.

I've realized that oversharing with everyone is exhausting. Being open doesn't mean explaining everything to everyone. It's important to conserve energy and choose what to share
