BLOG 147 TONY ROBBINS
After hearing about all the lives he has helped, touched,
and improved, I had to know more about him. Netflix released a 2 hour
documentary called, “Tony Robbins: I Am Not Your Guru”. He wasn’t your typical
life coach that I was anticipating to find. In fact, his approach was shocking,
yet powerful for those he worked with.
Okay so I don’t know if I’m the only person who didn’t know
that Tony Robbins uses the “F” word freely. He is in your face, and seeks an
arousal. The “F” word provokes people and is taboo word so there an energy that
comes with it causing a reaction. Probably shouldn’t use this on your kids at
home, but under Tony’s circumstances it seemed to work.
Obviously, this entrepreneur is doing something right. He
has written 6 best selling books, owns 30 companies worth nearly $5 billion
visits 12 countries per year performing his seminars. These seminars hold over
200,000 people each at rate of $4995, which is for 6 days each 12 hours long. A
typical day is form 11am to 11pm all with Tony. Netflix covered his seminar
“Date With Destiny” focusing on reclaiming who you are. He has helped big names
like Aerosmith, Green Day, Pitbull, and Usher. He has a team of life coaches
that work for him.
His purpose is to help you make changes. It isn’t about just
solving your problems but really narrowing down the source of them. You have to
decide what you want, not just what you will tolerate in life.
The best advice I received from him was regarding blame. We
can blame our parents or other people for certain issues we have, but we can
also blame them for the good too. Meaning just because I lost my mother to
alcoholism and grew up with the associated situations of that, doesn’t mean she’s
at fault for all that goes wrong in my life. My mother is actually to blame for
my drive and determination to be the best. She is to blame for my work ethic
and perfectionist traits. For that, I thank her, which aided with my closure.
On your fitness journey, we know it isn’t just all about
working out and eating right. We have to get our minds right too. A life coach like Tony Robbins may just be
the additional help you need. No hurt in doing a little research to better
yourself because that’s the end goal…. to become the best version of YOU!!!!
