  When Rob talked about how we can get our creativity back at any age i thought of the Dylan lyrics "I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now"

  I wish Greene would write a book on limitations as the essence of life, creativity and mastery, with real stories of people who were able to achieve greatness using their limitations as stepping stones.

  Social intelligence is about reading people to discern who truly wants to invest in you and those who just want to use you - so true the more you swing away from the lowest common denominator. You have to pay attention. Excellent interview Navid!

  One of my teachers often repeated that "95% of talent and 5% of work will bring you nothing, but 95% of work and 5% of talent is a granted success". According to this formula more talented people will achieve more (because they will be able to do more), but still the biggest task is to find the domain where you are talented at and only the start to invest your time (collect those 10k of hours of practice). You can't neglect the fact that people are born different and NOT equal. Some are better at math things, others are better at sport. But the natural talent usually stays untouched due to external factors - maybe parents will push you to study arts when you are a genius in driving a car and something like that. Sure you can train your brain into being creative, but if it's not in your genes, you still will be just a mediocre wanabe. So genetics are essential here.

  I really really believe in that ideia from the law 4th in the 33 Strategies of War: Burn the Ships. When you decide what you really wanna do, your ideas, your projects. Put yourself in a position that you`ll need to use all of your criativity and focus to reach your goal. But becareful, you need to decide what you want before to Burn the Ships.

  I have watched Robert Greene in many interviews but this is one of the best. Very insightful, positive and genuine interview and help me understand deeper and closer.<br>You let Robert talk openly and personally but not all about your opinions like some other interviewer. &nbsp;Much love and respect !!!

  What a great interview! Very intriguing and great content; lots to learn, definitely. We people, subconsciously, assumed once we mastered one thing, particularly. we felt we&apos;ve known better than others, yet we only have known a portion of it. Thanks for this video, will definitely come back sporadically.
