Live an Extraordinary Life by Anthony/Tony Robbins
http://www.TonyRobbins.com
Anthony Robbins or Tony Robbins (born February 29,
1960) is an American self-help writer and
professional speaker. He became well known through
the use of firewalking in his seminars. He
initially studied Neuro-Linguistic Programming but
went on to develop his own methods.
Robbins was born Anthony J. Mahavorick in North
Hollywood, California. He was raised in Azusa,
California, and he attended Glendora High School.
His parents divorced when he was seven years old,
and his mother later remarried twice. Tony took on
the surname of Jim Robbins, his second stepfather.
In 1994, a routine medical check revealed a tumor
in Robbins' pituitary gland. Robbins explains in
Personal Power that the tumor was actually an
adenoma that had infarcted several years earlier.
Due to the pressure of the adenoma on his
pituitary gland, he had circulating levels of
growth hormone several times higher than what
would be normal for an adult his age. This had
resulted in a subclinical manifestation of the
disease known as acromegaly, which doctors told
Robbins was responsible for his remarkable growth
spurts as a teenager, as well as his large hands
and feet. (He is 6 feet 7 inches tall, or 201 cm).
After consulting with multiple physicians, Robbins
decided not to have the adenoma resected, as it
was not causing any clinical manifestations.
In a CNN interview in 2001, Robbins said it was
difficult to end his 15-year marriage to Becky
Robbins, saying it was the toughest decision of
his life. He said that he also knew if he stayed
with her, he'd be ruining her life and his.[2]
Robbins reiterates similar comments about his
previous relationship in his recent Ultimate
Relationship Program.
In the same year he married Bonnie Humphrey (now
Sage Robbins), who was 22 years younger than his
former wife.[3]
Robbins started his career promoting seminars for
Jim Rohn, and then started teaching
neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) after learning
it from NLP co-founder John Grinder.
Grinder encouraged Robbins to look into the
firewalking experience. In 1983, Robbins located
Tolly Burkan and learned how to firewalk from
him.[4] Robbins then added firewalking to his
seminars, which enabled him to gain media coverage
and launch his celebrity status. Robbins later
began to teach Neuro-Associative Conditioning
(NAC) and "Human Needs Psychology".
In his Personal Power program, he says that the
difference between NAC and NLP lies in the use of
the word 'conditioning' instead of the word
'programming'. The word 'conditioning' implies
that the subject has greater responsibility for
his or her own change, as opposed to being
programmed by someone else.
Anthony Robbins calls himself a peak performance
coach rather than a motivational speaker. He tries
to find out what people do when they are at their
peak and then help them access that peak state
whenever necessary. He believes what he does is
more effective than providing temporary
motivation.
