Mastery

Get on that now.

He's wrote amazing, amazing books, including Mastery.

You've probably heard of that one.

Some of my personal favorite ones are The 50th Law, The 48 Laws of Power, and The Art of Seduction.

For number one, it's a great skill to have in a globalized world.

It's a great discipline.

I talk in Mastery about... training the mind to learn things.

And you might be an electrical engineer, and that's what your specialty is, but that's not to hold you back from, on your spare time, learning a musical instrument or a language or chess.

sort of being an

employee? Just like Robert Greene in his book, Mastery, he talked about the apprenticeship stage, that for every leader or for every owner you see, at some point, they were once apprentices as well, which is the employee stage.

So, especially in something like agriculture, it's not something you just jump into.

You have to go through the apprenticeship stage, but the goal at the end of the day is not just to be an employee, but to have this vision where you want to make impact in other people's lives and create something big.

I think for me, the progression of my YouTube channel was like probably 95% podcasts for the first 200.

I read this book once called The Mastery by Robert Greene, really famous book.

And it kind of drove how I structured.

So I was like, I'm going to take notes for a few years.

Robert Greene knows this.

Read his later books, particularly Mastery, which I'd argue is his best and most honest work.

There he moves away from the pure tactical framework of the 48 Laws toward a more complete picture.

The deepest form of power is mastery of your craft.

What are three things you'd recommend to get going?

Well, um, it's something I describe in my book, Mastery, and it really depends, first of all, on how old you are when you get stuck.

So if you're 21 and stuck, it's a little different than when you're 51 and stuck, right? It's a different set of problems.

But I'll go on the assumption that we're talking about the younger people who are stuck.
