Robert Greene: Daily Meditations to Transform Your Life

"If you go deeper into yourself, you'll find below the surface four or five things, other emotions, other things going on at the same time. Perhaps things from your childhood, things that are unconscious. You're not even aware of what's truly motivating your behavior. You're kind of sleepwalking. You think that you do things for reason A, but actually, there's B, C, D, E, and F below the surface. So you're a mystery to yourself." - Robert Greene Robert Greene is a six-time New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and strategist known for his works on mastery, power, and seduction.
