What is that you really want in your life right now?
I suppose we all have a goal - that something that we
absolutely want right now. Whether it be a great relationship, more money, a
great job or just to be healthy again.
Wanting it is one thing. Getting it is quite another.
Most of us have been taught that to get what we really
Want, we have to think positive, set goals, work hard, be patient, and make
sacrifices - Right?
WRONG!
Surprised?
Tony Robbins, after spending a lifetime coaching some of
the most successful people on the planet, has a completely different view on
what it takes to get what you really want
Think back to one of those rare moments when you felt
On top of the world: Fearless and certain, with
limitless energy, incredible ability, amazing clarity of thought able to
conquer anything Vibrant with an aliveness impossible to describe.
Inspired bursting with creativity, brilliant ideas, and plans for exciting
things to do In total control,
optimistic, tasting a level of freedom that few ever find a golden moment in which your life was rich
with purpose, meaning, awe, and inner peace.
Then in a flash, it’s gone. You’re back to living half a
life, and doing things the hard way.
Now what?
How long do you wait for the moment to return? A week, a
month, a year, a lifetime?
Let me show you how you can enter this state, instantly
- at your command - unleashing an incredible power that transforms your life
and fulfils your every dream
Let me share a story to illustrate my point:
I was on a flight, sitting in first class, when shortly
after take-off I heard, Aren’t you the
power guy?I turned, and from across the aisle, I again heard, Anthony Robbins.
The power guy. Right? I smiled and nodded.
The well-dressed elderly man introduced himself, told me
the name of his company, and to impress me, mentioned the major league sports
team he owns. I’ll call him Mr. Big. He then introduced the man next to him,
his lawyer, who I’ll call Phil.
You promise unlimited power. Isn’t that your shtick? asked
Mr. Big.
He obviously thrives on confrontation. If he only knew
what was about to happen.
I’m intrigued, he continued without waiting for my
reply, I’ve watched your infomercial,
and I think it’s a lot of crap.
I listened politely.
The way I see it, everyone falls into one of two groups:
the powerful and the powerless. Ninety-nine percent are powerless and regardless of what you promise them, they’ll
stay powerless until the day they die.
You’re missing
the point, I said. Everyone has an
untapped power centre, and I show people how to unleash it and use it to fulfil
their dreams.
Bull****! You
want to see real power? Watch this.
Mr. Big picked up his drink and, without hesitation,
poured it slowly into Phil’s lap. Phil jumped up, blurted an obscenity, and
looked at Mr. Big in horror. Frantically, he brushed the ice onto the floor,
wiped his wet pants, forced a frozen smile, and said, That’s funny.
Mr. Big then turned to me and said, That, Mr. Robbins, is power.
Powerlessness condemns
people to a lifelong prison sentence
I’ve seen thousands of people like Phil - intelligent,
talented, well-educated, full of big dreams - who are prepared to work hard and
make sacrifices. They do everything right but in the end, they fall short of
their expectations.
Why?
Because they’re missing the key ingredient:
To make things happen, you first have to turn on your
power and enter your peak state.
If you don’t, it’s like putting a roast into a cold oven
and forgetting to turn on the heat. Nothing’s going to happen.
Without the power, people’s lives become a string of
good intentions - instead of the achievements, victories, fulfilment, and
results they desire. They spend their lives working too hard, for too long,
reaping few lifetime rewards, giving up often, and settling for less than they
want and deserve.
Phil could have it all. He just needed to know he had
the power and how to activate it. Until he finds the power, he’ll spend the
rest of his working life being a doormat to bullies like Mr. Big.
I couldn’t sit there and do nothing.
When Mr. Big went to the restroom, I asked Phil why he
put up with such abuse. He’s harmless.
He’s just having fun, Phil said. Then adding, But I have been thinking that I should drop
him as a client.
SHOULD!
It drives me crazy when I hear people say should.
Shoulds never
materialise. It’s a clear sign that Phil sees himself as powerless. At that moment,
I decided to share what I know with Phil.
I reached into my briefcase, removed my personal notes
from the three-and-a-half-day seminar I had just given, Unleash the Power Within , took out half a
dozen relevant pages and handed them to him and said, You MUST read this, now!
One of the first things I tell people at my Unleash the
Power Within seminar is to replace the word SHOULD with MUST.
Instead of saying, I should find a better job, I should
start my own business, I should lose weight, I should quit smoking, I should
spend more time with my kids say MUST.
Say, I must find a better job, I must start my own
business, I must lose weight, I must quit smoking, I must spend more time with
my kids and you’ll notice an immediate change.
Achieving what you want is easy when you know how to unleash the power within.
Mr. Big returned from the restroom, took his seat, and
grabbed a magazine. Phil was studying the pages I handed him. About 20 minutes
later, Phil stopped reading, placed the papers on his pullout table, and stared
directly ahead into space.
Phil, Mr. Big
said. Phil didn’t answer. He just kept staring. Phil, what time are we going to land?
Looking straight ahead, barely moving a muscle, Phil
replied, 3:55.
Jim’s going to
meet us at the airport, right?
Yeah.
You know how we’re
going to play this, right?
Yeah.
I don’t want any
screw-ups.
No screw-ups.
Phil sat there, staring straight ahead, appearing to be
somewhere else, lost in thought. But actually, something quite different was
taking place inside Phil. I could see it. I’ve seen it thousands of times in
other people as it happened to them.
I’ve seen the same look in people who attend my seminar
as they step onto a bed of red-hot coals - glowing at 1,500 degrees - walk
across, smiling and relaxed, without burning their feet.
I’ve seen the same look in people who accomplish amazing
feats that few can do.
How did they do it? They entered their Peak State
Phil was there at this moment, and I watched with the
same pride that parents have as they watch their child perform in a school
play. I just sat and waited to see what he would do with it.
Suddenly, Phil called the flight attendant and asked if
there was an empty seat back in coach.
Plenty, he said.
Good. I’d like
one, please.
Mr. Big looked startled, What’s going on, Phil?
Phil got up, grabbed his laptop computer, turned to Mr.
Big and calmly said, You’ll have to find
another lawyer.
Sit down, Phil! he
said.
Phil just smiled as he grabbed his things from overhead.
If you don’t sit
down right now, I’ll
You’ll do what?
I’ll I’ll
Still smiling, Phil turned, winked at me, mouthed, Thanks , and walked to the rear of the plane.
Mr. Big’s face was red. He turned to me and said, Do you see the kind of idiots I have to deal
with? Then after a pause, I’ll bet you
50 bucks that he’ll be back he’ll be
back before this plane touches down he’ll
be crawling back to me.
Phil stayed in coach, enjoyed the flight, and made plans
for a new life.
The key ingredient to transforming your life is tapping
into your inner power
What happened to Phil?
Well, two things.
First, he discovered something that few people know. And
of those who know, only a handful understand how it works:
He learned that inside each of us is a power centre -
the source of that powerful, driving force that, once unleashed, makes any
vision, dream, or desire a reality.
The second thing he discovered is the most beneficial of
all:
A simple way to unleash that power.
But here’s the interesting part
As you unleash that power, you’re entering your peak state and are capable of achieving
whatever you desire, with surprisingly little effort.
Your physical abilities multiply. Your mental abilities
multiply. Your talents multiply. Your skills multiply. Everything you do, you
will do that much better. Obstacles, the unknown, and doubt disappear. You
perform the most difficult task, effortlessly.
Operate from your peak state, and you’ll have more confidence,
more self-esteem, more passion, and more enthusiasm. You’ll be at the top of
your game, as they say.
Enter your peak
state and answers are instant and insightful. You see the higher purpose for
your life. Old patterns and limiting beliefs vanish. For the first time in your
life, you know what it means to be FREE! I mean Really Free!
In your peak
state you communicate distinctly. You look different. People perceive you as
taller. Better looking. You glow.
Hope and chance are replaced with by design. You know where you’re going, how
you’re going to get there, and nothing can stop you.
Everyone doubts it works until they try it.
Something doesn’t
sound right, people argue. Are you
saying that once you unleash the power inside you, you can accomplish anything?
Yes, anything! And without force. Without willpower.
Without positive thinking. Without repetition of affirmations. Enter your peak state and nothing will stand in your way.
I invite you to experience my live weekend event, Unleash the Power Within , where you’ll
discover how to identify what it is you really want, permanently break through
any barriers that might be holding you back, dramatically increase your
physical energy and mental clarity, and infuse passion into your daily life.
Learn how that can happen for here.
