Summary
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.

Read more than once
Very few books are worth reading again to extract the maximum value from them. This is one. It does not matter how much expertise one might have acquired on the subject, anyone is bound to learn something from this book.

Mastery through case studies, but not a "how to".
Firstly, the recording was a little "harsh" with sibilance and could do with some "De-essing" as it was quite distracting and sometimes piercing!
As for the book, a wonderful collection of the stories and theories behind mastery but not much of a how to book.

Robert Greene is a Genius
Mastery is another masterpiece that only Robert Greene could have generated.
All the cases presented in the book are detailed and analysed from different points of view with the scope of underlying the power of the brain when put to work on achieving the Mastery.
The narrator Fred Sanders is one of the best voices I have ever listened to.
I am very happy to have finished this book and will definitely listen to it again.

A must-read by the master himself!
This book is for anyone who is looking to master not just a skill, but by extension life itself. Robert Greene is certainly a master of his time when it comes to writing self-development books and this book explains all the steps one must go through to achieve greatness. I recommend this book as well as the entire Robert Greene collection to anyone who is looking to understand themselves and the people around them.

Perspective changing
A book to listen and listen again. The strategies in this book are ones you will need throughout your life at EVERY STAGE. This is what self help books should strive to be. Every chapter I learned something new and it didn’t make me optimistic but equipped me with better perspectives to view life.

Insights backed up by science and history, inspiring!
Historical accounts of Masters and their lives. Insights that I truly feel did inspire me to my core. During the book I experienced an epipheny about my own life, which has helped me forge my own path forward. I loved the book and it kept me interested 99% of the time. The only thing I wish it had was a summary and conclusion as the actual end of the book, otherwise 10/10.
