His videos and seminars have helped millions of people better their lives.

While it’s easy to see someone like Tony Robbins achieving at high levels, the real reason he’s changed so many lives is because of his own transformation. He’s been able to push through adversity, several times in his own life, which has helped shape his character.

Today, he works with presidents, athletes, and celebrities worldwide. But it all started very differently..

The Inspirational Story of Tony Robbins

Tony Robbins was born in downtown Los Angeles in 1960. During his childhood, he never had a true father figure as his mother married several times. He received physical and verbal abuse from his mother as she battled with drugs and alcohol.

At one point, things were so bad at home that they didn’t have any food to eat for Thanksgiving. But a generous stranger delivered a turkey and food to their doorstep. Tony answered the door and his life has never been the same since.

Tony took this event to mean that strangers care, yet his entire life his family had told him otherwise. At the same time, his current father felt that he had failed his family and stormed out of the house, never to be seen again.

Tony took this act of kindness from a complete stranger to mean something. At 17 years old, he started doing the same.

He delivered turkey dinners to people who couldn’t afford it. Each year, he doubled the number of people he could help.

It was this point, he realized that he wanted to be rich so he could help people in need. He made his first million at age 24 and found worldwide success two years later as his book, Unlimited Power, launched him to mainstream success.

Since then, he’s modeled his entire life to help others. Whether he’s speaking on stages, writing best-selling books or traveling the world, Tony always acts out of service to help others.

The Tony Robbins Foundation feeds more than four million people around the holidays each year. His foundation also runs programs to help the homeless, encourage youth leadership, and provides his work to prisoners.

Here are three keys to living a fulfilled and abundant life from Tony..

3 Keys to Success From Tony Robbins

1. Focus on Progress | Real Reason Tony Robbins

Whether you are $30,000 in debt or worth $1 million dollars, people want to feel like they are progressing in life. Think about the last time you were frustrated or upset with where your life was.. you probably felt “stuck” right?

That is totally natural. Human beings want to make progress, regardless of where you are in life. Try to do something every single day that helps you progress towards your goals.

Don’t let your happiness depend on others, instead strive to make progress on yourself and your goals. This will allow you to be better at work, with relationships, friends, and increase your overall happiness.

2. Use the 80/20 Rule For Success | Real Reason Tony Robbins

“Success in life is 80% psychology and 20% mechanics.” – Tony Robbins

If you’re unfamiliar with the 80/20 rule (known as the Pareto Principle), it basically says that for many events roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.

For example, 80% of your income is earned from 20% of the work that you actually do at work or in your business.

The same goes for success. Make sure that you focus on what moves the needle the most.

Often times it will be the most challenging but it will also give you the most benefits.

3. Grow So You Can Give | Real Reason Tony Robbins

“The secret to living is giving.” – Tony Robbins

Tony is a huge giver as someone once fed his family as a kid which changed his life forever. He now feeds millions of people each year through his foundations and other charitable efforts.

The biggest reason you should focus on growth is that once you grow, you can give back. The biggest philanthropists in the world are also the richest. Not only can you help contribute money but other resources and connections to help change more lives.

Remember, it doesn’t matter what you’ve gone through or where you came from. All that matters is that you keep going and focus on helping others as Tony did. You never know, you might help the next Tony Robbins with your act of kindness.

Tony Robbins 5 Rules for Success

The post Tony Robbins 5 Rules for Success appeared first on Fearless Motivation - Motivational Videos & Music.

Date with Destiny is attended by a variety of people, from CEO’s and multi-millionaires, to students and those with suicidal thoughts. Everyone looking for a major breakthrough in their life.
You can make your mind up, based on these reviews, if Date with Destiny is worth it for YOU.

It is my opinion any event could be highly valuable, to anyone, depending on how you CHOOSE to view that event (something you will learn at Date With Destiny). If you have not invested in any of Tony’s books or audio programs before, I do suggest you start with those, as the event is really just a live, extended version of these programs. I highly recommend: Unlimited Power – Book, and Personal Power Audio Program.

Here are some thoughts of those who have invested in the event:

How would you summarise Date with Destiny in 1 sentence?

Anthony Leong: An expensive, but worth it, life-changing experience, that was fun, exhausting and exhilarating.

Christie Jenkins: A personal development rock concert that can change your life forever.

Christina Wallace: Date with Destiny is what you do when you make a true decision to make real changes in your life, have massive breakthroughs, and step into your true authentic self!

What was your purpose for attending Date with Destiny?

Anthony Leong: To get my mojo back with regard to starting another business, after achieving all my previous goals overseas .Was there a main reason/breakthrough you wanted from the event?

Christie Jenkins: I’ve always been interested in sports psychology and the mental side of high performance so I went looking to learn more about that. But I left with much more than that.

Christina Wallace: My purpose for attending Date with Destiny was to gain clarity on my values and purpose in life. The most important breakthrough for me was to delete past limiting beliefs and establish clear values for my future; to unleash my personal power to create a compelling and fulfilling future.

What is was your greatest personal breakthrough moment or principle gained from Date with Destiny?

Anthony Leong: The conviction, which has lead to action, that putting my wife first is the most important thing I can do for my happiness.

Christie Jenkins: Tony makes a distinction between the ‘science of achievement’ and the ‘art of fulfilment’. Until DWD I’d never really understood how you could develop a sense of fulfilment without losing some of your edge on the achievement side of the equation. The exercises around values and primary question helped me reconcile this tension in my mind.

Christina Wallace: My greatest personal breakthrough happened on Transformation day, when I was able to release the little girl inside who had protected me from danger, abuse, and being left alone. I was able to express my gratitude, and let her go because she no longer served me. I was able to recognize that I am safe, loved, and protected by source, the universe, God. I am able to love all of me, forgive all my judgements, and let go of the parts that no longer serve me.

Is there anything at all you didn’t like about Date With Destiny?

Anthony Leong: The meditation did not seem different from other meditations.  It was built up a lot, but for me, didn’t deliver.

Christie Jenkins: As an athlete it was difficult for me to sit inside for so long – they certainly aren’t generous with breaks during the sometimes 15 hour days! That was a physical challenge for me. I also skipped out on Mike and his sales pitch as it felt very negative and not aligned with the energy of the rest of the event.

Christina Wallace: I would have enjoyed more team time, to get to know people more individually on our team, and have a team challenge. I would also like more information for Relationship day, the interventions were very long and some content on feminine and masculine energies was omitted.

Nearly 2 months on, have you been able to maintain the momentum gained from the DWD event?

Anthony Leong: Yes.  Still repeating my primary question and mission statement daily multiple times.  Still repeating my power virtues and noticing my away value of humiliation not affecting me as much as it used to.  Have more faith in the future and not feel I need to control everything for certainty or constantly prove myself for significance which is a huge weight off my shoulders.  I remember that I alone am responsible for the state that I am in.

Christie Jenkins: The week after the event I crashed hard catching up on sleep deprivation! I actually left DWD not with a need for more momentum, but a need to enjoy the moment more. I think it’s probably unsustainable to live your whole life at such a peak energy state. What I’ve tried to do is recalibrate my natural energy state to be slightly higher, and to know that DWD is the high-bar for a maximum energy state which I can go into on occasion.

Christina Wallace: YES! Because I had already hired a life coach, have been part of an amazing Master Mind from UPS San Jose, and have an accountability partner, I have been able to make amazing shifts and progress. I will also redo my poster to re-evaluate my values and goals with SMART goals, and measurable actions using RPM planning.

What, if any great results have you achieved which you would attribute to DWD and the principles gained there?

Anthony Leong: The above.  Also, moving toward love and contribution as my main human needs, I enjoy more the time with my wife and kids more, despite the challenges of raising two young kids, and I have increased my giving/lending to KIVA.

Christie Jenkins: I can’t point to one significant life change that has occurred after my time at DWD, more the accumulation of small changes. I was already doing what I wanted to do with my life before the event so I’ve made slight adjustments to the way I think about things and the energy I bring to things.

Christina Wallace: Learning my old values and top needs was huge. Now that I have assessed and created new towards and away values, I am so much happier and more fulfilled. My new top 3 towards goals are: 1) Health and vitality, 2) Love & connection, 3) Financial Freedom, which serve me in focusing my actions and allow me to feel successful daily! I also use RPM planning more effectively since DWD.

Would you recommend date with destiny to anyone? Why/Why not?

Anthony Leong: I would, if you plan to continue to use the tools in your life after, not just at the event.  In any case the interventions are a pleasure and privilege to witness live and the decisions and distinctions you make can be life changing.

Christie Jenkins: Most of the people in the room either have some interest in personal development, or are completely stuck and frustrated with a major area of their life. Having said that, I believe there is something in it for everyone. You get the performance of your body checked at the doctor every year, so why wouldn’t you also do the same for your thoughts and emotions.

Christina Wallace: YES! I have recommended DWD to many people already, however, I also recommend hiring a success coach first. My coach was able to help me clear a lot and set clear intentions before attending DWD, so I maximized my experience and outcomes.

In your opinion, what was the greatest thing about DWD?

Anthony Leong: The interventions (Intervention meaning Strategic Intervention, is where Tony dives deep into a 1 on 1 transformation with an individual, this is a big part of the event)

Christie Jenkins: I’m in awe of Tony’s ability as a speaker. He would hold the room completely captivated for hours and hours on end. People would be busting for the bathroom and not want to leave, and when they did finally succumb to their bladders they would sprint to the bathroom!

Christina Wallace: The greatest thing about DWD was the alignment of towards and away values, and learning about relationships regarding feminine and masculine energies. I also met the most amazing people, and had such support from my accountability partner!

What are your thoughts about the energy in the room every day? 

Anthony Leong: Powerful energy of love in the room

Christie Jenkins: It’s off the charts. Literally like being at a concert except no one judges you for your stupid dance moves at DWD.

Christina Wallace: The energy in the room was AMAZING!! I went to the Gold Coast, and fell in love with the Aussies! Tony, Scotty, and all the trainers & mentors were so awesome! The crew brought the energy up to a whole new level!!

During the event, you will likely hug more humans than you have in your life, and dance longer than you have in your life too. Tony does this to get you in a positive, powerful state.

Anthony Leong: It grows on you, then you get right into it.  I continue the dancing at home at times, to the amusement of my kids. Hugs are always great – easy way to feel good.

Christina Wallace: Dancing was the BEST!

You will learn about the 6 human needs, and how your needs control your decisions.

What were your Top 2 human needs and how were they restricting you from the life you wanted?

Anthony Leong: Certainty and significance helped me be successful, but would not allow me to be happy as you can’t control the future, no matter how much you influence it, and there will always be a bigger fish for you to compare yourself to.

Christie Jenkins: Previously my top two needs were significance and growth. I was happy with growth and it remains one of my top two. While I still love achieving things, I can do it with a motivation that goes beyond simply chasing significance. Removing significance from my top two will also make it a lot easier to experience a meaningful relationships and deeper friendships.

Christina Wallace: My top 2 human needs used to be certainty and significance, they restricted me from the life I wanted because I was too concerned with how people would see me or what others thought. I was also too scared to take a real risk and go for it!

What are your top 2 human needs now, and how is your life better from this shift? 

Anthony Leong: Love and growth.  Love brings so much joy in my life so I now emphasise hugging and savouring my wife and kids (particularly when they are in a good mood   ).   I am putting my wife first, at least a lot more than I used to and it has improved our relationship.  Another thing that makes me happy is growth, which, regardless of whether others see it, feels good to me, as the small wins feel great and add up to something pretty awesome in any area of life.

Christie Jenkins: Growth is still there, and I chose love as my second one. It’s a huge shift for me and there are still plenty of times where I see significance thinking creeping back into my life. It’s led me to reframe how I think about achievement from a predominantly self-focused point of view, to considering how what I achieve might have a broader impact. For example, winning a sporting tournament gives you the profile to mentor and inspire young athletes and the power to influence the structure of the sport for the better.

Christina Wallace: My top needs now are love & connection, and Contribution! Growth is at the top as well, I am consistently growing with daily personal development, my mastermind tribe, reading, and learning daily.

1 full day at Date with Destiny is dedicated to Relationships:

What was your biggest takeaway from Relationship day?

Anthony Leong: To man up and realise that my wife becomes more masculine and bossy when she’s stressed or scared.  To make sure that there is polarity of masculine and feminine in the relationship, and always know that we have the best of intentions.  Putting her first and letting her know that has created more intimacy in the relationship.

Christie Jenkins: Relationship day was one ‘aha’ after another of ‘well now I know why I’m single’! The breakthrough for me was a transformation in my thinking around showing vulnerability and femininity. Prior to DWD I’d considered displaying these as a sign of weakness. I realized that it takes far more courage and strength to show your vulnerability than it does to maintain an outward appearance of strength.

Christina Wallace: My biggest takeaway was about the masks, that a real feminine core can be masked by a masculine and then masked by what she thinks is being feminine. That was so eye-opening!

Do you think the principles learned that day will enhance your relationship? (Or get you into a relationship if you weren’t in one) ((or END your relationship if it was an unhealthy one)

Anthony Leong: Yes, they have.

Christie Jenkins: I’ll have to put that to the test when I next find myself in a relationship. Gentlemen… feel free to ask me out and we can share our relationship visions

Christina Wallace: YES!! I learned so much that has already enhanced the relationship I have with myself, and will make my next relationship so much more amazing!

You will learn about living in a beautiful state, and how to get in a powerful state every day.

How has learning about the power of your STATE changed your life & what you do to get in state every day. 

Anthony Leong: I have realised that state is so much of the solution to most problems.  We are all better people in the right state, and can be awful in the wrong state.  I do gratitude exercises, listen to inspiring music, jump up and down or watch a short documentary called ‘Slomo’ on youtube that inspires me.

Christie Jenkins: I’ve used my incantations (usually while driving so if you see someone yelling at the top of their lungs it’s not road range, it’s me getting into a beautiful state). This has been an addition to the visualization that I do regularly to prepare myself to compete in my sport.

Christina Wallace: A grateful, centered, and joyous state is key to daily outcomes and enjoying the most of life. Living in the zone of fulfillment is dependent upon living in a beautiful empowering state. I do priming, meditation, exercise, and saying my definite major purpose statement every morning. I also live in a constant beautiful state of joyous expectancy.  I shake my ASS as much as possible!!

The importance of  “living in a beautiful state” – What does it mean to you? 

Anthony Leong: Before I used to rely on strategy and use my intellect which are great for business, but for happiness, living in a beautiful state and self managing it is key.

Christie Jenkins: A beautiful state means holding appreciation for your life and the present moment in your mind. To be in that state, be in the now (not thinking about the past or future) and find gratitude for something around you or within you.

Masculine and Feminine energies – your takeaway from these principles.

Anthony Leong: Polarity of the energies in a marriage is vital, otherwise we would just be friends/room mates.

Christie Jenkins: Masculine is not strong and feminine is not weak – each of these energies requires courage and commitment to live in.

Christina Wallace: My biggest takeaway is that a true masculine needs freedom and appreciation. And I need to nurture my feminine energy by being vulnerable, playful, and allowing my man to be my hero!

You will learn how to master MEANING, knowing that YOU control your reactions to every situation in your life.

How has the old story and your new story have changed your life?

Christie Jenkins: I’ve always believed strongly in taking personal accountability for you achievements and for your enjoyment of your life. You learn that pretty quickly through sport where winning and losing and the emotions that go with it are entirely your responsibility. So my story hasn’t really changed, I’ve just added a touch more gratitude for all the opportunities I’ve had.

Your old and new values: How have they changed and how has that improved your life?

Anthony Leong: They have made me feel happier and less fearful of rejection or humiliation.

Christie Jenkins: My old values were winning, freedom, making someone proud of me, growth and recognition. And my life definitely reflected that – I’m an athlete so winning is part of my job description. I also developed a lifestyle that saw me travel 8 months of the year overseas – plenty of freedom. My new values are growth, love, courage (because love takes courage!), audacity / boldness, impact and leadership. The change is to bring more a focus on fulfilment and relationships into my life, and to think about achievement from the perspective of making and impact and being a leader. Ask me again in a year and we will see some big changes I’m sure.

Your old and new primary question: How have they changed and how has that improved your life?

Anthony Leong: Allows me to focus on love and growth rather than frantically trying to get shit done, which I get done anyway.

Christie Jenkins:  My old question was ‘how can I win at this?’ My friends and family will tell you that I am extremely competitive and no wonder when I go around asking myself this question. My new question makes my brain appreciate the present moment and the people around me: ‘how can I celebrate and share even more of who I am, and who others are, in this moment?’

One sentence to describe yourself before the event and yourself after the event. “From…. to…”

Anthony Leong: From having an itch inside I couldn’t scratch to feeling the love

Christie Jenkins: From orange to yellow… you have to go and experience the event to understand my answer!

The post Tony Robbins Date With Destiny Review – Is It Really Worth It? appeared first on Fearless Motivation - Motivational Videos & Music.

Imagine you’re eighty years old. You have diligently worked all your life to pay the bills and take care of your family. And now, your days go by watching TV, taking medicines, and wondering why your grandchildren won’t get off the phone and talk to you.

You often catch yourself saying:

“Something is missing. How does my life matter? Is life really worth living?”.

You could have chosen to do the things you wanted. But that time will never come back. You have to make peace with the fact that, you played it safe and never sought to make your life worth living.

The Truth About Regret

We need to deal with the pain of regret or the pain of leaving our comfort zone. The latter is temporary, the former is permanent. Once you make a firm decision to work on yourself and stop taking life for granted, your life will become much more meaningful.

Ready?

Here are the 7 ways you make your life worth living, and avoid any regrets when your time comes:

1.  Take the Time to Know Yourself

Self-awareness is very important for happiness in every area of your life. When you know your emotions, desires, character, and goals, it is easier to move forward.

Ask yourself, have you taken the time to find your purpose? You don’t have to think too far ahead. Keep a journal to know what your values are and what really matters to you.

I Didn’t Come This Far To Only Come This Far (Motivational Video – THE JOURNEY):

2.  Work on Meaningful Goals

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, a Hungarian psychologist, believes that people don’t feel the happiest in their passive, sitting-back-and-eating-popcorn moments.

He answered the most pressing question of our times: What makes your life worth living?

According to him,

“ The best moments usually occur when a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.”

Once you know yourself, create a vision for your life, a vision that inspires you to get out of bed in the morning. Then work on daily goals that move you closer to that vision.

‘Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.’ – Albert Einstein

3. Give to Receive

“The quality of your life is the quality of your relationships.” – Tony Robbins

This quote by Tony Robbins shows that in order to enjoy life and feel alive, we need to nurture our relationships. You need people who accept you with all the imperfections. To have such relationships, start giving. Call your old friends, plan a meet-up, do something special for your best friend or spouse.

You can also give back to a greater cause. Psychologists have proved that volunteering for nonprofit organizations can make your life worth living. Every person can make a difference in others’ lives in some way or the other. The famous actor Denzel Washington said,

“It’s not how much you have, it’s what you do with what you have that makes the difference.” – Denzel Washington

4. Immerse Yourself in Everything You Do

Mihaly also mentions that the best moments of our lives are when we are in a state of flow. In flow, all of our attention is focused on a single task,

This leads to a remarkable insight.

If you want to have more meaning in your life, stop dabbling, and immerse yourself in everything you do. Treat your work like an art, and look at yourself as a craftsman.

Is there a word more passionate than passion? Obsession, total immersion, the feeling that everything else doesn’t matter. – Cynthia Ozick

When you’re with people, be genuinely interested in what’s going on in their lives and listen empathetically, not only the words but also the feelings. Most people just wait for their turn to speak. Being connected to people heart-to-heart makes your life worth living. 

5. Forgive Everyone You Hate

If you want to feel alive, you need to let go of that ugly weeds you planted a long time ago. Whether it is your boss (he still pays you!) or your college bully, you need to forgive everyone you feel intense hate towards.

Why? Because hate eats you alive one day at a time. It sucks you dry of enthusiasm. And you know that you don’t want to become hollow inside.

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.” – Mahatma Gandhi

As a matter of fact, seven days of forgiving your worst enemy is equal to practicing 40 years of meditation [1].

What the monks achieved in 40 years, you can have in 7 days. F***ing amazing, right?!

If this doesn’t make your life worth living, nothing else will.

The post 5 Ways to Add Meaning And Make Your Life Worth Living appeared first on Fearless Motivation - Motivational Videos & Music.

Throughout his life, Tony Robbins has taught people how to succeed in life. He has coached the most influential people we know – Nelson Mandela, Bill Clinton, Oprah, Serena Williams, Princess Diana and Mother Teresa.

He has trained Olympic athletes, CEOs and heads of States to perform at peak levels and he has saved people from committing suicide. Behind his great feats lie a deep understanding of what makes people tick.

He is truly a force of nature.

In Unlimited Power, he shows us how to succeed in life and career by mastering our own mind.

Here are the most important lessons from the book on how to succeed in life:

1. Communication is Power

Robbins says that communication is power. It determines how we experience the world and how the world experiences us. With great communication skills comes the power to influence others.

All great people including Martin Luther King, John. F. Kennedy, Franklin Roosevelt, and Mahatma Gandhi used their words to influence millions of people.

According to Robbins, communication is of two forms – external and internal.

External Communication

How we communicate with others determines our success in society. Think about it. From cracking job interviews to negotiating business deals, communication is an integral part of achieving success in life. Mutual trust and respect is the foundation of growth in all kinds of work.

Internal Communication

This one is generally overlooked. According to Robbins, how you feel – happy or sad, is because of how you communicate with yourself. If you master internal communication, you can change how you feel, act and live.

2. Ultimate Success Formula

Everyone wants to know how to succeed in life. The formula consists of four simple steps:

1. Define exactly what you want to achieve.
2. Create a strategy and take action.
3. Measure how successful your strategy was.
4. Tweak your strategy until you achieve your goal.

Life is like a river. It’s moving, and you can be at the mercy of the river if you don’t take deliberate, conscious action to steer yourself in a direction you have predetermined.”

3. Use Modelling to Succeed at Anything

Robbins gives us a smart answer to how to succeed in life. According to him, we don’t have to reinvent the wheel, we just need to model the behaviors and strategy of those who have already succeeded.

But how?

Use this to achieve anything

If you want to achieve any goal, there’s a simple process you can use to achieve the results they did.

The five-step modeling process that shows how to succeed in life:

1. Find a top performer and study their strategy and actions
2. Implement the same strategy and actions
3. Visualize the top performer at their peak performance producing outstanding work
4. Visualize again, making yourself as the top performer, doing the same things
5. Go get it. Take action.

To meet your needs on every level, first identify your values. Make a list of everything that matters to you, such as love, honesty, freedom, beauty and creativity.

4. Rule Your Mind To Nuke Negativity

To succeed in life, you need to rule your mind. If your mind rules you, you can never commit to action and achieve your goals.

Here’s where you learn how to master internal communication.

There are many ways you can do this:

A. Reframe Negative Events And Feel Positive Instantly

Did you ever fail at a game and felt really bad, I-want-to-die bad? It happens with everyone. But the truth is that any situation is as bad as you make it. If you lose a game, you can tell yourself, “Doesn’t matter. I had fun.”

The point is:

“You can choose what an event means to you, instead of accepting by default that it’s bad for you .”

So when you face a negative situation, reframe it as a positive one. Ask yourself, “What’s great about it?” or “If I go through this, I will become stronger.” Always remember, reality is what you perceive it is.

You will learn how to succeed in life only when you start seeing things positively.

B. Use Anchoring to Feel Happy and Get Things Done

Anchoring refers to creating a desirable response by using a particular stimulus. We always feel sad while listening to a sad song. And we always feel happy when we meet a beloved friend. In these examples, friend and song are stimuli, and how we feel is our response.  

Meaning?

When we experience a certain stimulus, we create a certain response in our mind. And we can use this simple anchoring mechanism to our advantage.

How to use this:

Suppose you love working out and it makes you feel strong and unstoppable. So, whenever you feel low, or too tired to do important work, you can do a quick ten-minute workout to make yourself feel strong and unstoppable.

C. Use Swish Pattern to Break Bad Habits

You can use the same anchoring mechanism to quit a bad habit. A swish pattern helps you build positive habits by changing the mental image you hold of your bad habits.  

To use a swish pattern:

1. First, visualize the habit you want to change. Make an internal representation. If it is smoking, visualize yourself smoking.
2. Now imagine how you will look and feel once you make that change. In the case of smoking, you may feel yourself feeling more energetic, your face glowing, etc.
3. Swish the two images, swapping the images mentally, making a “whoosh” sound loudly with excitement
4. Repeat the process many times.

We know this is crazy.

Here’s EXACTLY how to do the swish, as explained by Tony Robbins:

“Start by making a big bright picture of the behavior you want to change. Then, in the bottom right-hand corner of that picture, make a small dark picture of the way you want to be. Now take that small picture, and in less than one second, have it grow in size and brightness and literally burst through the picture of the behavior you no longer desire. As you do this process, say the sound “whoosh” with all the excitement and enthusiasm you can.”

How does this work?

Your brain forms a new neural pattern: See the old -> Whoosh -> Do the new

And as a result, you associate pleasure with the new habit instead of the old habit. You become stronger, smarter, and happier. As you build positive habits, you learn how to succeed in life and achieve your goals with full confidence.

5. Use Physiology to Feel Happy and Strong

Physiology is another way to get into a great mental state. Physiology here refers to your posture, your facial expressions, and how you use your physical body.

For example, in a depressed state, a person would be looking down, shoulders dropped, breathing shallow and voice weak.

The best part:

You can create ecstasy at will by changing your physiology.

To create ecstasy, simply laugh, sing, or dance. You need to act as if you were ecstatic and you will be ecstatic.

We’ve actually shown how Tony Robbins uses this tactic to overcome negativity.

Physiology is very important because it leads to a strong or weak mental state which further leads to strong or weak results. Your task is to make your physiology work for you, not against you. Go for a run, workout, take a cold shower – and quickly change your state from sad to happy and energetic.

So now that you know how to succeed in life, implement the lessons and see your life change – one goal at a time.

Every year the poor get poorer and the rich get richer.

They both seem to be caught up in a spiral. The rich spiral upwards toward success, hope, certainty, abundance, and fulfillment. The poor spiral downwards toward failure, poverty, anxiety, scarcity, and frustration.

What if we told you achieving greatness is a choice?

Today you’ll learn the EXACT principle that drives success and failure. You’ll learn how one can turn their life around by overcoming their mental barriers.

We’ll show you some real life examples so that you can break your own mental barriers.

The core principle that shows how to achieve greatness is:

How Certainty Helps You Move Forward Quickly

When you’re absolutely certain about something, you perceive it as an opportunity worth pursuing and you take massive action to achieve it. But when you’re not certain, you take less action, face disappointment and give up.

Here’s a real life example:

Roger Bannister is an English athlete who ran the first four-minute mile. Before him, no runner ever believed that they break the 4-minute mile. But after his success, 37 people overcame their mental barriers.

This leads to a remarkable observation:

“People find certainty in the outside world. If they can create it within, they can achieve anything and become unstoppable.”

Believe – The Most Important Motivational Video by Fearless Motivation – WATCH FREE:

If anyone of the 37 people had created certainty by themselves, they could have broken the record earlier.

So our strategy should be to create certainty inside us by ourselves.

But how?  

First, let’s understand the full mechanism of how success or failure spirals work and how to achieve greatness using this knowledge.

1. Potential

You have learned how certainty drives us to take action. We think an opportunity is worth pursuing if we see the potential in it. If we aren’t certain, we don’t see the potential.

2. Action

Once we see the potential, we feel ready to take action. The more certain we are, the more action we take. If we don’t see the potential, we won’t take any action.

3. Results

When we take massive action, we create great results. When we don’t take action, we don’t generate results.

4. Belief

When we create great results, this confirms our belief that we have great potential. Similarly, if we don’t create results, it further strengthens our belief that we have little potential.

So the belief again connects to potential, making it a spiral. We all spiral in this pattern, downwards or upwards, in major areas of our lives such as career, relationships etc.

So, if we can somehow hack the core link, which is certainty, we can become the masters of our own destiny.

As Tony Robbins says:

The core difference in people is how do you produce certainty when the world isn’t giving it to you?

How to Achieve Greatness: Create Certainty Yourself

So how do you create certainty? If the external world tells you that you can’t do it and you don’t have any past records of success, how do you create absolute certainty?

The answer is, by using your imagination.

If your external reality cannot give you certainty, it has to come from your own mind. This is where visualization kicks in. You can create certainty for yourself if you see yourself achieving your goals in your mind.

It is exciting to see yourself succeeding, isn’t it? This shows achieving greatness is a choice. You can use this strategy for achieving greatness in business, relationships and every other area of life.

The more detailed your visualization, the better. How will it feel? What kind of things you’d do? How will your social circle look like? What kind of hobbies and passions will you have?  

Why visualization works so well?

Because our subconscious mind cannot tell the difference between reality and imagination. And it is our subconscious mind that controls most of our actions. By visualizing in your mind, you are asking your subconscious and the universe to provide you with all the resources needed to achieve that goal.

As Abraham Hicks said,

If you have the ability to imagine it, or even to think about it, this Universe has the ability and the resources to deliver it fully unto you.

You have to practice visualization on a regular basis to achieve your goals. It’s not a one-time thing.

And once you reach your goals – in relationships, in career, in fitness – the rewards will be worth every second of effort.

It is fairly easy to predict the future. How? Just look at your habits. If you’re a hard worker and have a hunger for learning and growth, you’ll become the top earner in your field.

If you don’t like what you do, don’t work hard, avoid risks, you’ll end up as average – never realizing your full potential.

Your habits are good indicators of your future, your character, and your legacy, or the lack of it, that you will leave when your time comes.

Here is how you can use habits to transform your life:

Tony Robbins

Tony Robbins talks about how success is often painted as this elusive ideal, a pinnacle that exists far in time. But the truth is that success is a process, a habit. You can use habits to transform your life.

In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently. It’s a process

You want to know the biggest illusion about success? That it’s like a pinnacle to be climbed, a thing to be possessed, or a static result to be achieved. If you want to succeed, if you want to achieve all of your outcomes, you have to think of success as a process, a way of life, a habit of mind, a strategy for life.

Taking action, even though you’re afraid, is how you become courageous—because courage, like fear, is a habit. The more you do it, the more you do it, and this habit—of stepping up, of taking action—more than anything else, will move you in a different direction.

I can look at your body and I can guess your rituals. Some of you, your ritual is to work out five times a week I can see it clearly..it’s obvious. Your life comes from your rituals. If you don’t develop the rituals, you’re kidding yourself.

Habits can MAKE you, but they can also BREAK you – WATCH FREE on YouTube:

Brian Tracy

Brian Tracy shows how important it is to take responsibility for your own actions. Whatever you are experiencing in your life is created by you. If you change your habits, you can attract the things you desire. 

Successful people are simply those with successful habits.

Winners make a habit of manufacturing their own positive expectations in advance of the event. Form good habits and make them your masters rather than allowing bad habits to form. Good habits are hard to form and easy to live with. Bad habits are easy to form and hard to live with. 

You can develop any habit or thought or behavior that you consider desirable or necessary.

You are where you are and what you are because of yourself. Everything you are today, or ever will be in the future, is up to you. Your life today is the sum total result of your choices, decisions, and actions up to this point. You can create your own future by changing your behaviors. You can make new choices and decisions that are more consistent with the person you want to be and the things you want to accomplish with your life.

Zig Ziglar

Ziglar talks about how your character is built from your habits. It’s not what you say, but what you do that really defines who you are. You can use habits to transform your life. 

Motivation gets you going and habit gets you there. Make motivation a habit and you will get there more quickly and have more fun on the trip.

You are free to choose, but the choices you make today will determine what you have, be, and do in the tomorrow of your life.

We build our character from the bricks of habit we pile up day by day.

Jim Rohn

Jim Rohn makes a good remark that you must deal with pain – either with the pain of regret or with the pain of discipline. As human beings, we want to run away from pain. Choose to face a little pain now so that your whole life doesn’t become a tragedy filled with pain.

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.

Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.

Either you run the day, or the day runs you.

We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment.

Eric Thomas

Eric Thomas has eaten from trash cans and risen to the top with sheer grind. He talks how consistency – working on your goals every single day, continuously over the years – is necessary to realize your dreams.

Some days are harder than others to get up early and grind. But I’d much rather suffer a little today than struggle the rest of my life.

I’m talking about being consistent! I’m talking about regularity! Listen to me! I’m talking about consistency. I’m talking about rituals, habits!

Bob Proctor

Bob Proctor has examined the nuances of life for more than 50 years. There’s a lot you will learn from this man.

Have you ever wondered why you get the same results over and over again? I have spent the 55 years doing nothing but ask these questions.

Today, just do a little more. Turn going the extra mile into a habit. It is what lifts the most successful people above the crowd.

Vince Lombardi

Vince Lombardi was a football player and coach and knew what separates greatness from mediocrity.

Winning is not a sometime thing; it’s an all the time thing. You don’t win once in a while… you don’t do things right once in a while… you do them right all the time. Winning is habit.

Stephen Covey

Stephen Covery, the author of 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, talks about cause and effect. What you sow today, you will reap tomorrow.

There’s no better way to inform and expand your mind on a regular basis than to get into the habit of reading good literature.

But until a person can say deeply and honestly, “I am what I am today because of the choices I made yesterday,” that person cannot say, “I choose otherwise”.

Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.

Eckhart Tolle

If you are trapped in fear, Eckhart Tolle has got some advice for you. It is your ego, your habitual thinking processes and behaviors that are limiting you from becoming who you are.

If you are in the habit of creating suffering for yourself, then you are probably creating suffering for others too.

The ego is habitual and compulsive thought processes that go through your mind continuously. It’s about being trapped in thought and in mental noise.

Oprah

Oprah became a billionaire in a time when she had to prove herself on two huge paradigms. One, that a woman can rise higher than a man and is worth much more than her timid, domesticized identity. Two, that having an oppressed past, with millions of people hating you because of your skin color, cannot dictate your future.

Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.

With every experience you alone are painting your own canvas, thought by thought, choice by choice.

Wayne Dyer

Wayne Dyer, author of twenty-one New York Times bestselling books, shows how you must align your habits with your desires and dreams.

You release old habits behind by starting out with the thought, “I release the need for this in my life”.

One of the huge imbalances in life is the disparity between your daily existence, with its routines and habits, and the dream you have within yourself of some extraordinarily satisfying way of living.

The more you see yourself as what you’d like to become, and act as if what you want is already there, the more you’ll activate those dormant forces that will collaborate to transform your dream into your reality.

Now that you know how to use habits to transform your life, go write a new life story.

“People who fail to plan are planning to fail.”

Everyone dreams of a better future – a better lifestyle, bigger vacations and more importantly, a greater level of fulfilment. But why is it that only 1% of people hoard 99% of the wealth[1]? What is their secret? They understand that they need goals in life to succeed.

In this post, you learn why you need goals in life directly from the legends – Tony Robbins, Bob Proctor, Jim Rohn, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar and the great actor, Denzel Washington.

Tony Robbins

From invisible to visible

Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.

Goals have power
Many times, people tell me things like “Well Tony, you are successful in your life because after all, you’re so motivated. I’m just lazy.” I just tell people you’re not lazy, you have impotent goals. What we wanna do is get some goals that will drive you. Some goals that’ve got some power behind them. And the way to do that is to realize that right now you are about to create a real future, you’re not writing down words on a page.

Bob Proctor

Realize your vision

Your purpose explains what you are doing with your life. Your vision explains how you are living your purpose. Your goals enable you to realize your vision.

Goals should scare you

Set a goal to achieve something that is so big, so exhilarating that it excites you and scares you at the same time.If you do not get the chills when you set your goal you’re not setting big enough goals.

Do it right

Most people are not going after what they want. Even some of the most serious goal seekers and goal setters, they’re going after what they think they can get.

Jim Rohn

Dreams into goals

Long-range goals are your dreams. You’ve got to keep dreaming. There is a Bible phrase that says, “Without dreams and visions, people perish.” You’ve got something to go for that inspires the heart and the soul. Don’t lose your dreams, for yourself, for your future, the dreams of love and enterprise, travel, doing things, becoming something unique on your journey here. Short-range goals are for the immediate future. We call these the confidence builders.

Written Goals

People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine.

Control your life

Goals allow you to control the direction of change in your favor.

Know Your Exact Goals

At the age of 20, I had an incredible epiphany, that everything that was going to happen in my life is up to me. It doesn’t matter where you were, all that really matters is where you’re going. The starting point of success is to decide exactly what you want in life, EXACTLY what you want. Do it this way, if you could wave a magic wand and have anything you want in life, what would it be?

Zig Ziglar

Goals Break Old Limits

When you set goals, something inside of you starts saying, “Let’s go, let’s go”, and ceilings start to move up.

Can’t Hit a Target?

Famous archer, Howard Hill won all of the 267 archery contests he entered. He could hit a bullseye at 50 feet, then split first arrow with the second. Would t be possible for you to shoot better than him? Yes, if he were blindfolded! How can you hit a target you can’t see? Even worse, how can you hit a target you don’t even have!? You need to have goals in life.

Plan Your Life

You need a plan to build a house. To build a life, it is even more important to have a plan or goal.

Denzel Washington

Goals Are Necessary

True desire in the heart for anything good is God’s proof to you, sent beforehand, that it’s yours already. You already have it. Understand this also, dreams without goals remain dreams, and ultimately fuel disappoint. Goals on the road to achievement cannot be achieved without discipline and consistency.

So now that you know why you need goals in life, go get them!

“The only problem we really have is we think we’re not supposed to have problems! Problems call us to a higher level- – face & solve them now!” – Tony Robbins

We all deal with stress in our day-to-day lives. Sometimes it’s the boss, sometimes it’s our friends and sometimes it’s our own brain that just won’t shut up.

But don’t fret. There are powerful ways to cut this out.

How do we get sad?
Tony Robbins gives a wonderful solution to nuke negativity. He says that our self-defeating thoughts are not based on who we are but on our emotional states. Learn how Robbins handles negativity in life and you’ll make your own life better.

For example, if you feel low after waking up, your mind will make up gloomy stories about your life. But if you go for a quick run and come back, your mind will make up a happy story. A low emotional state will lead to low stories. This is why exercise works better than antidepressants for people who suffer from depression. 

How to not get sad?
The key here is to change your biochemistry to get rid of negative thinking. All that negative self-talk would vanish if you just “prime” your state. You can prime your state by any intense physical activity such as push-ups, running, breath of fire and so on.

Mastering Emotions

Tony Robbins handles negativity in life by following the State-Story-Strategy principle. If you’re in a sad emotional state, you’ll hear a sad story from your mind and your strategy will be equally bad. Tony says that you must first prime your state, that is, fix your biochemistry, by physical exercise.

Hence, priming is important because sometimes we don’t need to solve our problems but fix the emotional states that create those problems.

Tim Ferriss, a huge fan of this principle, says that “Sometimes, you think you have to figure out your life’s purpose, but you really just need some macadamia nuts and a cold f-ing shower.”

Tony Robbins’ Priming Routine

Tony Robbins handles negativity in life by priming his emotional state every morning.  Here’s what his morning routine looks like.

1. Cold-water Plunge

The first thing Tony does after waking up is jumping in the cold shower. Cold shower naturally wakes you up and charges you up for the day.

2. Rapid Breathing exercise

This is similar to the yogic “Breath of fire”. Yogis claim that breath of fire is the key to accessing higher consciousness. Robbins does 3 sets of 30 breaths every day.

• • To do this exercise, sit with your back erect, hands placed on your knees and eyes closed.
  • Now push your navel inwards, towards the spine during the exhale and release it on the exhale. Your mouth will remain closed on inhale as well as exhale. Imitate a panting dog to know the rhythmic pattern, but keep your mouth closed.
  • You can speed up the inhales and exhales, but make sure they’re rhythmic and of equal length. 2-3 cycles per second with no pause is a good rate of breathing.

3. Expressing gratitude

Expressing gratitude is a simple habit which often gives huge returns. Tony says that you cannot be grateful and angry, or grateful and fearful at the same time. So gratitude can detoxify your mind of negativity.

To express gratitude, just count a few things you feel thankful for. These things could include a lunch date with an old friend, a new creative idea for work, your friends who always lift you up and so on.

4. Prayer

You don’t need to believe in God to pray. Robbins spends three minutes to seek strength and wish goodness to his loved ones. So just tune into your heart, ask for strength and wish everyone good luck.

When you can control your emotions, you can harness their power to succeed in life. So now that you know how Tony Robbins handles negativity in life, try it and see how it feels.
