Tony Robbins: Unleash the Power Within

Last month I had the wonderful opportunity to attend one of Tony Robbins' live events. I have been a fan of Tony and heard about his work for a number of years. One day in the earlier part of last year, this man came to the office I was working at to fix our printer. After some small talk, we found that we both had a passion for personal development. I shared about events that I had attended, such as the Landmark Forum and other yoga and personal development workshops.

Long story short, he inspired me to buy my ticket for the event. His passion and excitement was contagious and decided, why not?!

I can definitely say it was one of the best decisions I have ever made! Tony teaches by immersion. meaning we experience the principles and philosophies rather than just talk about it. I spent four days jumping up and down, blasting through self-limiting beliefs and building new relationships. Oh and I WALKED ON FIRE! Really! I actually walked on hot coals barefoot and did not get burned. It was one of the most scary AND empowering 8 seconds of my life.

As I write this, I find it difficult to put into words what the experience did for me. It was moving in a way that I haven't experienced before. It was exciting. It was bonding and enlightening.

What I know for sure is that we can create any reality that we choose. It may seem difficult at times and we may seem trapped in circumstances and not see a way out. But I can say now from my own experience and the testimony of other people, that we are amazing creatures and more powerful than we typically admit.
