Robert Greenes new book

[SeldomSeen]

I just started reading Roberts new book "the 33 Strategies of War " and while its not really a book pertaining to intimate relationships (atleast not what from what Im reading so far) there is something in the preface that stood out to me; he says and I quote: "...the greatest battle of all is with yourself-your weaknesses, your emotions, your lack of resolution in seeing things through to the end. You must declare unceasing war on yourself. As a warrior in life, you welcome combat and conflict as ways to prove yourself, to better your skills, to gain courage, confidence and experience. Instead of repressing your doubts and fears you must face them down, do battle with them. You want more challenges..."

I'm looking forward to picking up his new book. I didn't know Robert had a new one out besides his previous two. Sweet!

All his books are very entertaining reads. I picked this one up as well, but haven't had much time to read through it since i have 4 or 5 other books i'm reading through concurrently.

Bought it today at barnes & noble. It already looks like it's going to be a great read. Just the strategy titles give them power and crediblity that can be used as powerful affirmations...

This one really caught my eye:

Strategy #28: GIVE YOUR RIVALS ENOUGH ROPE TO HANG THEMSELVES: THE ONE-UPMANSHIP STRATEGY

Life's greatest dangers often come not from external enemies but from our supposed colleagues and friends who pretend to work for the common cause while scheming to sabotage us. Work to instill doubts and insecurities in such rivals, getting them to think too much and act defensively. Make them hang themselves through their own self-destructive tendencies, leaving you blameless and clean.

Sounds to me like AMOGn'. :yes:
