How do people become powerful? Can understanding power protect us from those who wield it too strongly?
When Robert Greene first set out to write about power, he didn’t have much of it. He worked odd jobs and was largely at the mercy of other people’s power. Now, his book “The 48 Laws of Power” has given him the power he wrote about. He sat down with me to share what he’s learned on both sides of that spectrum.
This… is a Bit of Optimism.
