Robert Greene

But one man seems to have bitterly resented a mere actor presuming to call himself an author.

This was Robert Greene, who died September 3rd, 1592, after a long career of playwriting and pamphleteering.

He died a disappointed man and wrote a farewell tract published after his death, which includes a warning to his fellow authors and an undoubted attack upon Shakespeare under the thin disguise of Shake Scene.

It is to be considered that Shakespeare had by this time been five years in London, that he had proved himself singularly adaptable and had finally, on March 3rd, 1592, attained his first popular success in the production of the newly opened Rose Theatre on Bankside, Southwark, third London Playhouse, opened February 19th, 1592, of Henry VI.

Let them go where they're going to go.

And one of my favorite books is The 50th Law by Robert Greene.

One of the chapters of that book is becoming comfortable with boredom.

And the concept is about mastery.

And that chapter of that book was a precursor to the book that Robert Greene wrote.

I believe it might have been his next book.

And he wrote a book literally called Mastery, which is all about how people become masters and experts at what they do and how it's a lifelong process.

Event for, you know, basically... volunteer for events.

Even like you look at Ryan Holiday, how he volunteered and was the intern for Robert Greene, doing a lot of his grunt work, like transcribing and all that kind of stuff.

And then you look at Ryan Holiday now and he's written some 14 bestselling books and has a huge kind of media company.

But he leaned in with service and again, without any expectations and, you know, led him to kind of where he is.

I'm Marcus Aurelius Anderson, and my guest today truly embodies that phrase.

Robert Greene is one of the most influential and prolific authors of our time.

He's written New York Time bestsellers, The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction, The 33 Strategies of War, The 50th Law, Mastery, and The Laws of Human Nature.

The Daily Laws is his most current book, and he's working on a new one right now, and I'm sure that we'll talk about it.

This man's work has been a significant impact in my life for my recovery and my rediscovery of purpose.

Robert Greene, thank you for having the time to be on today.

You're an incredible author, and thank you for listening to what we have to say and being present with us today.

Well, thank you for inviting me, Marcus.

That's what it is.

That's when you use extroverted intuition as part of your gateway for a sexual strategy when it's actually the same thing as coquetry as taught by Robert Greene in his book, Art of Seduction.

So what these looks maxers are actually doing is that they're acting like women.

They're actually using female sexual strategies because they're so afraid of rejection.
