For more than 30 years Tony Robbins' passion has been helping people BREAK THROUGH and take their lives to another level -- no matter how successful they already are -- in the areas that matter most: their business, personal finance, intimate relationships, families, careers and health.

Tony Robbins has helped more than 50 million people from more than 100 countries transform their lives and their businesses through his books, audio programs, health products, live events and personal coaching. He's been fortunate enough to work with everyone from presidents of countries to some of the true legends of entertainment, sports and the business world. But his work is not limited to Fortune 500 CEOs and athletes. He has a special passion for small-business owners, parents and students.

Being the Chairman of seven privately held companies and five holding companies in diverse industries keeps him busy. Many of his companies have become brands that are leaders in their category - from the award winning Namale Resort & Spa in the Fiji Islands, to Twinlab and Metabolife in the sports nutrition field, to the Anthony Robbins brand in personal and professional improvement.

Most of Tony's core strategies for creating breakthroughs have come from his work with some of the biggest names in the business world: He's had the privilege of modeling and distilling the strategies of leaders in some of the fastest-growing companies in the world. He's used these distinctions to help optimize and grow enterprises to new and more profitable levels.

One of the things Tony is most proud of is his humanitarian work through the non-profit Anthony Robbins Foundation. He's always believed that if we're blessed enough to have insight and economic opportunities, then we're also blessed enough to be able to give back. To those who much has been given, much is expected. Tony Robbins is extremely blessed to be able to feed more than two million people in 56 countries every year through his International Basket Brigade.

Chapter 1: He was the janitor and ten years later he was in a chopper above. Said in many ways over and over again.

Chapter 2: A mind numbing list of pointless questions. And how he was ten years before.

Sorry, but the Giant should be more obvious, even from a distance. I also fail to see what is the connection between Poland's opposition to the Soviet Union influence and the flying janitor asking rhetorical questions.

من أفضل الكتب التي قرأتها هذه السنه. ينبغي قراءته بعقليه متفتحه مستعده للتقبل لان الكاتب يعرض مبادىء اساسية وهامه في اسلوب الحياة. كذلك، هو ليس من الكتب التي تقرأ مرة واحدة ومن ثم تزين المكتبه! شعرت اني ارغب في العودة اليه بين فترة والآخرى. من يبحث عن طريقة سريعه للتغيير او كتاب للتسليه فهذا الكتاب ليس له. هناك الكثير من التمارين / التفكير مرتبط بقراءة الكتاب.
لدي تحفظ على اسلوب الترجمة كان من الممكن ان يتكب بطريقة افضل. بشكل عام كتاب رائع يدعو للتفكر.

I enjoyed the abridged version of the audiobook, because it eliminated all of the fluff and got right to the point.

Anthony Robbins work is spectacular. He has motivated and inspired both the wealthy celebrities as well as the every day person. He has a way of putting our issues where they need to be. On the back burner. And puts what we can do to become better, and more, on the forefront.

I have turned to this book as a reference so many times since I first read it. Awaken the Giant within is for both those that are already well on their way to success, as well as those of us on our journey.

I highly recommend this book.

I believe that “Awaken the Giant Within” by Tony Robbins contains some helpful tips to life solutions and some fanciful solutions to life problems.

A few good things:

It states “the desire for gain must exceed the fear of failure” in order to accomplish something.

The book explains that what gives us pleasure we pursue and what give us pain we avoid. So the trick is to change the unpleasant situations into pleasurable ones. This is easier said than done, in my opinion.

However, a good tip given is to spend 10% of your time on your problem and 90% of your time on the solution. “Persistence overshadows talent” is another Tony Robbins’ maxim.

He lists dozen of questions that you are supposed to answer about yourself. One example is:

1.tWhat have I given today?
2.tWhat have I learned today?
3.tHow has my day added to the quality of my life?

He also lists a dozen or so charitable organizations, with phone numbers, where you can donate your services.

I will admit that I admire Tony Robbins because he talks about how he values every single person and how he would like to be each person’s friend. And then concludes his book with his phone number and says to give him a call. That is very impressive in my book.

Anthony Robbins is one of the most well known self-improvement and motivational speakers. Even though his first book 'Awaken the Giant Within' was published more than a decade ago, it still holds immense relevance in today's world. This is a book packed with plenty of strategies on how to take charge of your emotions, health, relationships and finances. It is a holistic book that offers timeless philosophies that can help you reach your true goals and discover your passion in life.

I have read several self-help books and while most were helpful, I find 'Awaken the Giant Within' a very well thought-out book. Self-help books tend to lean too much on the advice, but offer little in the way of execution. This book seems to be more of a practical, strategic guide than a book of superficial hope, which is a good thing. I would completely recommend it to anyone looking to bypass the fluff, hype or superficial positive thinking literature for a more substantial read.

I would recommend to read it a couple of times in order to understand and implement the underlying philosophies. Robbins' literature is heavily influenced by Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP), which might at times be a bit complex to get the hang of.
