On Today’s Episode:
That feeling you grapple with every day of wanting to change, but struggling to change because 30 minutes into the day you’ve already caved and did what you said you wouldn’t do, is more than paralyzing. It makes you frustrated and angry with yourself. That habit loop of disappointment leads many people to depression and living a mundane life filled with unfulfilling things you don’t even value.
Tony Robbins is a legend that needs no introduction. His work has been changing lives at scale for decades and continues to grow more powerful and more impactful every year.
Tony’s Date with Destiny program was shown in a controlled study by Stanford University researchers to improve the state of mind of clinically depressed participants without the use of drugs, even well after program completion. The power of what you focus on, good or bad impacts the life you experience. As Tony emphasizes in this conversation, a compelling future that allows you to focus on something more than yourself, something meaningful is required to start living your best life.

QUOTES:
“We can all deal with a difficult today if we have a compelling tomorrow.”
“You don’t experience life, you experience the life you focus on.”
“People have habits of what they focus on and those habits become your biochemical habits as well.”
“Identity is, who are you beyond the problem.”
“We’re drawing in information and we’re starving for wisdom.”
“A belief is a poor substitute for experience. You can tell somebody something and they can nod their head and cognitively understand it, but that’s quite different from the visceral experience of getting it in your body.”
“Most people think that hypnosis is something that people do to them, but most people are living in a hypnotized state.”
“Self-esteem is earned by yourself for yourself. It comes from doing something incredibly difficult and no one else knows it, you know it that’s why you have esteem for yourself.”
“It’s really what you link pain and pleasure to that creates lasting change.”
“The biggest drug on the planet is problems because everyone has a deep fear.”
“Leverage is what makes change a must not a should.”
“We can get beyond any pain that we’ve been through if there’s something we want to serve more than ourselves.”

This is an impactful read. I read a parallel book that gave me a fresh perspective. "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze
this is some true love form the highest power guiding us towards healthy way of thinking
My life got transformed in ways unimaginable once I STOPPED doing everything Tony Robbins suggests we do and started doing things that really matter to create real change in one's life. I am not here to condemn Tony , I am well aware of the fact that he is just the product of the multi billion dollar self-help industry that was created to fill the gap due to poor parenting . However, most of what they teach leads to nothing but a great illusion. Since you can not really measure "self-progress " it is easy to allure people into seminars and self-help books and get them hooked on the journey that eventually leads to nowhere.. If you also want to transform your life in ways unimaginable my suggestion is to first stop doing what they teach in these seminars or self-help books and start focusing and channeling your time and energy on what really matters such as building strong principles , habits, working on your biology and focusing on your behavior instead of wasting your precious energy and time on motivation, will-power , positive thinking, affirmations , values and visualization.
Motivation is garbage as how many times we come up with New Year's resolutions only to wither and give up by end of February or early March..Positive thinking leads you to no where , only creates a big illusion that make you feel like you are making progress but you are just delaying doing the real work and just diluting yourself..Affirmations never work because now matter how many times you get in front of the mirror and tell yourself you are the best and you are very confident only to find yourself devastated and upset the moment small adversity comes your way.. Values are vague and can change over time as your circumstances could chance so focusing on creating better values will just create confusion as it will also delay doing the real work..Working on your will-power is an futile attempt as you are a human being with feelings, emotions and certain impulses. Trying to create a strong will-power will only result in disappointment the moment you are put through a real life test where your impulses will take over and will-power will be thrown out the window.. Visualization is also another form of delusion without the real work behind it , if it is not supported by concrete evidence that you are on the right path , it will just add more misery to your life down the road..
Instead of going from seminar to seminar, buying one self-help book after another , get real yourself and start looking inwards ..Start looking at real places where the answers will eventually come from , that is your own mind..Start building strong principles and once in your life make the effort to become a person that lives by these principles.. Start building good habits that will make you a healthier , better person with a clear mind..Get rid of your bad habits that are destroying your life slowly.. Start cultivating a mindset that helps you stop doing things that are not in your best interest..Start working on your biology, we are , after all, a living creature with certain hormones .Find ways to make your biology better , because human mind and human body are all connected , once you start better taking care of your biology you will see a tremendous shift in your own mind and start getting that clarity that will help you reach your goals.. Start doing OMAD ..Instead of wasting your time and energy on these useless tools that they teach you in these seminars, start spending time and energy on how to train your body to eat LESS and eventually find out how your body will THRIVE with very little food in your system .. Use the time and energy to work on making your body better and healthier through a daily exercise..
For once in your life, STOP doing what you have been doing all along, and do SOMETHING ELSE…You might be surprised by who you become…
