Mastery entails the evolution of Robert Greene as a thinker and a writer. In my view, it the most positive work from the said author.
For Greene, the motive behind human endeavors remains the same, which is attaining power. However, here he opines that the means to achieve power are not deceit, treachery or self serving and narrow minded attitude, rather power is acquired by becoming a master in your field. Mastery, in turn, is gained through laborious efforts and by following in the footsteps of other masters from past & present. The special emphasis on apprenticeship phase on road to mastery is commendable. He has also laid much stress on the 10,000 hours rule, in fact he has has gone further by introducing the 20,000 hours rule.
He has also narrated the lives of some great masters as role models for those who aim to climb the ladder of mastery. In short, this is a well written, productive and practical self-help guide by Robert Greene.
