Published: Nov. 8, 2022, noon

On Today's Episode: Settling for your day to day routine is one of the best ways to ensure a boring unfulfilled life. When you feel unfulfilled and like everyday is filled with going through the motions, it becomes easy to turn to unhealthy, self-destructive habits. Without understanding why you feel this way, affairs, drugs, and other unhealthy addictions have the opportunity to creep in.\nRobert Greene is well known for books that have shaped culture, challenged beliefs and p*ssed quite a few people off. The Daily Laws, Mastery and The 48 Laws of Power are just a few of his bestselling books.\nRobert joins Tom in this epic conversation about how to look inward and uncover the root cause of the boredom that leaves you feeling like your just wasting life away. Fulfillment is key if you really want to change your life around. The path to fulfillment involves mastery and Robert breaks down our need for stress in order to get there.\n\nNative Son by Richard Wright: https://www.amazon.com/Native-Son-Richard-Wright/dp/0061148504\n\nSHOW NOTES:\n0:00 | Introduction to Robert Greene\n0:25 | Why Your Life Is So Boring\n10:03 | Can\u2019t Handle Change\n23:40 | Admit You\u2019re Out of Control\n35:12 | Everyone Is Seeking Power\n44:42 | This Is The Goal of Mastery\n55:01 | Self-Absorption Kills Fulfillment\n1:06:51 | Competing Ideas Can Both Be True\n1:14:05 | Pain of Challenged Viewpoints\n1:20:40 | This Will Transform Your Skills\n\nFollow Robert Greene:\nWebsite: https://powerseductionandwar.com/\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-greene-0294962/...\n\nToday's Sponsor:\nThis show is sponsored by BetterHelp.
