In Life there are those who are PLAYERS, there are those who are WATCHERS, there are CRITICS and there are ANALYSERS - To succeed in Life you have to be a PLAYER (like Tony Robbins is). Other players include Madonna, Elvis, Michael JAckson, the England football team, Shakespeare. When u r a Player you find the task Easy and u enjoy it all and u get into the flow - then people literally throw money at you !!!
Tony Robbins has taught millions of people how to overcome limiting beliefs and achieve a state of peak performance. Tony Robbins inspired me to create my motivational website "personal-development-tv (dot) com"
Music has amazing abilities totally agree.. Being a dj in a past life lol............. I will post a link to one that is pretty powerful in a trance shifting states see what you think..... It is done by ocean lab amazing work when the video is done..... It gives you a very nice feeling inside..... makes you feel better.....
In a way, a lot of what he's doing is giving each audience member a "test drive" of this "empowered life" vehicle and then plugs in (anchors) that buying his course will allow you to purchase that empowered life..etc. cool sales tactic/strategy!.
I'd like to point out another technique i've seen him use; he bombards the brain with information without pause, the brain has no time to process or question anything until the very end where he.........pauses, and slows down, where he inserts the essence or the main point of the speech. some question which the answer is always yes. the person will most likely so yes to the entire speech. oh and match the volume of your voice to the vid next time
I use to be into Tony, from 2000-2002 or 03. Went to UPW in 2002.
I look back on it...totally insane. He has some good concepts in his books, awaken the giant. He talks about how your mind works, questions you ask yourself, etc.
But some of it goes off into quackery...the q link pendant?!?
People don't need to "stand certain" when their investments are tanking or the economy goes down. He sells movements and energy, but people need information, knowledge, real things they can act on.
i think you're missing the point. he's not selling "movements & energy." he's selling perspective, behavior modification, and a system for personal improvement/change. while not everyone needs his system, his methods are undeniable by the 1,000's + of testimonials he receives on a monthly/yearly basis over the years. the feedback certainly gives some validity and sense of "certainty" to the value of his approach & system.
I also did personal power, lessons in mastery (which was very good). Some of it was really good.
UPW was pretty weird though...giving strangers back rubs, all kinds of stuff. Designed to "empower" you to go to another one of his seminars (mastery, dwd, at $5 or $10 k). Also, the forum on his website...some take action, many don't.
You can use whats good, But not worth so much hype.
... It is always an interesting conversation topic - Skeptics always say to me 'I've heard it all before' and I always respond 'Great, so what are you doing with what you heard' - The conversation usually goes silent at this point.
It is not the cost of the events but the Return On Investment - To get a return - You must act on what you hear.
One man's hype is another man's marketing ... It needs to be that way though to rise above all the noise & inferior copycats ...
responding to life challenges with extraordinary psychology defined as positive emotions is positive thinking. Tony Robbins tries to distance himself from positive thinking and motivation but that's exactly what he is selling and nothing more. What kind of organization sells hope, motivation and inspiration? Religions. Think about it.
Actually Tony believes in positive thinking when it leads to action, not positive thinking as a means in and of itself. His techniques are designed to put you in a state where you will act positively. Im not sure if his program works or not, but from reading his books I would say your comments are not correct.
Yes, positive thinking (extraordinary psychology) that may lead to action (responding to challenges) is what Tony is selling. But this is also what every other motivational speaker is selling and what Tony is trying to distance himself from. He knows positive thinking has a bad rep so he positions himself as a coach, a strategist, a psychology expert.
Fact is, life coach is a rediculous concept; he offers no strategy save bad investment advice (see Wade Cook and Beardstown Ladies), truisms dressed up with mumble jumble mixed with generous portions of hyperbole; the guy did not even go to college and do you think he qualifies as a psychology expert?
More than anything, I dislike the cultish nature of his organization. How is the Tony Robbins organization distinguishable from cults like Scientology except Tony hasn't filed to be a religion and get that tax exempt status? Quakery, pseudo-science, pyramid scheme, charismatic leader, fanatical followers, inner circle lingo, aggressive recruitment, ever more expensive seminars to sign up, etc. etc. You make the connection.

Interesting scrutiny of his work and you only strayed from pure analysis once ("'shoulds' to 'musts' is not always preferential" according to you)
But it was fascinating looking through the microscope at him.
I appreciate your efforts, and Tony's, to enlighten me! Nice work. Thank you.
