Awaken the Giant Within: How to Take Immediate Control of Your Mental, Emotional, Physical and Financial Destiny!

by Tony Robbins

Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards.

If you raise your standards but don’t really believe you can meet them, you’ve already sabotaged yourself.

find a role-model, someone who’s already getting the results you want, and then tap into their knowledge.

“Man is not the creature of circumstances; circumstances are the creatures of men.”

If you don’t set a baseline standard for what you’ll accept in your life, you’ll find it’s easy to slip into behaviors and attitudes or a quality of life that’s far below what you deserve.

that repetition is the mother of skill.

Remember: Success truly is the result of good judgment. Good judgment is the result of experience, and experience is often the result of bad judgment!

Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.

it’s your decisions, and not your conditions, that determine your destiny.

PAIN and PLEASURE! Everything you and I do, we do either out of our need to avoid pain or our desire to gain pleasure.

We’re not driven by the reality, but by our perception of reality.
