  • @lessons8708
    the fact that someone would insist that they're too good to have a dark side is a form of narcissism
  • My favorite lesson is “don’t outshine the master”. This rule is applicable in a wide variety of situations, not just with the boss. A 2nd fav is that a mean person isn’t just mean or nasty once, they have a pattern of behavior, and it will show up over and over again.
  • Usually i listen to 50th law when i do my grocery shopping but this time i was listening to laws of human nature.. chapter 4 : the law of compulsive behavior.. I just came back from supermarket.. thank you so much for all your books.. Your mind is beautiful.. May god bless you with long life.. ❤
  • The point he made at 2.25 that actions are a language. It’s very true but he said a sign of lateness is a sign of passive aggression. I would argue it’s a sign of something internal going on but it doesn’t necessarily have to do with the people around. For me, I’ve had an issue of running late but now that I’m out of my toxic relationship and I’m healing, this pattern of lateness has stopped and I’m able to thing more clearly and take my responsibilities more seriously. For me, my lateness has nothing to do with anyone I was late meeting or late to work, etc but it had to do with not making myself or my responsibilities a priority because I was prioritizing a toxic relationship instead.
  • Rewiring the Brain is extremely important ❤️ Thanks Robert !! 👍🏻

    8:20 Don’t take things personally — Robert’s comments about when someone says something negative to you or otherwise insults you most of the time that is a reflection of their own issues or something negative going on in their lives and has very little or nothing to do with you is so true from my experience. Long story (hopefully) short: when I was 15 a friend of mine’s parents went through a very acrimonious divorce which deeply scared him. He became very bitter and angry and took out his hostilities on me in large measure because he was envious of the stable and loving home I lived in. I was too young to understand how his parents’ divorce affected him and his behavior towards me was very hurtful. So now as a senior citizen whenever someone seems hostile or angry I don’t take it personally and try, if appropriate, to understand what issues that person is dealing with that makes them behave in such a negative way.
