Mastery

Live by your own rules" - Robert Greene the 'modern Machiavelli' debunks the prevailing mythology of success and presents a radical new way to greatness. Around the globe people are facing the same problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our uniqueness expressed in our achievements we must first learn the rules - and then how to change them completely. Charles Darwin began as an underachieving schoolboy Leonardo da Vinci as an illegitimate outcast. The secret of their eventual greatness lies in a 'rigorous apprenticeship': by paying close and careful attention they learnt to master the 'hidden codes' which determine ultimate success or failure. Then they rewrote the rules as a reflection of their own
individuality blasting previous patterns of achievement open from within. Told through Robert Greene's signature blend of historical anecdote and psychological insight and drawing on interviews with world leaders "Mastery" builds on the strategies outlined in "The 48 Laws of Power" to provide a practical guide to greatness - and how to start living by your own rules."
