 Pomp, pretense, and superfluity August 9, 2010
S. Kalish (Concrete Jungle)
0 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book, along with the entire body of Mr. Robbins products and services, is little more than grandiose promises of self actualization which will completely fail the individual who buys into them. Tony robbins is no different from the Church of Scientology, Landmark Education, or any of the other numerous vendors on the market who sell personal fulfillment at exorbitant prices. Make no mistake, the purpose of this book is to catch your attention so that you attend his seminars ad infinitum, which can be as expensive at $10,000 each.
There is absolutely nothing of substance to be found in the "Giant Within", other than lies authored by a pimp who believes his own lies. Mr. Robbins' trademarked series of exercises, which he terms "neuroassociative conditioning," are self hypnosis tactics of dubious validity. This is to say that they either do not work in any capacity at all, or that they will only exacerbate one's confusion and despair, leading to a further investment in Mr. Robbin's more expensive products and seiminars.
There is no magic, quick fix solution to the tribulations of one's life situation. There is no single book or seminar which can lead to the rapid transformation of character. The most we as individuals can do is go deep within, find the sacred alter of our own spirit, and pray. This is what all of the great prophets throughout history have repeated time and time again. Perhaps we should listen to their sacred words before we give power crazed liars like Tony Robbins our money.
 Fantastic Motivational Audio Book August 5, 2010
MELODY J. LEMESURIER (Perris CA)
This is a Fantastic Motivational Audio Book, I have listened to it several times while driving to and from work.
It, amoung several others, is helping me grow the business I started 10 months ago. [...] Just believe in yourself and keep learning every day and you can acomplish your goals and make your dreams come true.
Make sure you listen to it when you can stop and write down your goals when Anthony Robbins asks you to!
It is very important to participate and not just listen. Best wishes for everyones success in life.
Self Discovery, Self Control, Self Actualization August 1, 2010
Edward J. Barton (Mill Creek, WA)
Awaken the Giant Within is a 500+ page journey of self-discovery with Tony Robbins. While most of these "self-help" type books are very similar in approach, and Tony is no exception, the similarity is because they are effective. The book itself is broken into 4 parts - which broadly speaking are focused on:
Self Evaluation and Discovery
Development of Focus and Discipline
A 7-Day Kick-start Rapid Change and Focused Action Plan
Discovering Our Destiny and Making a Difference
If you just do a fraction of the activities in the book, you will come away with a clearer understanding of yourself and your values. Couple that with a bias to action, and your life will improve. Most of us have a fear of action and a fear of the mirror. Tony will help take those two things away - and that alone is worth the 500 page read.
Take Action Book June 25, 2010
A Customer
I enjoyed Awaken the Giant Within. The book is pretty hefty, but is well worth the read. It is a "take action" kind of book and the author tries several different ways to get you away from the book and work on the things he teaches. The book starts off with getting you ready for what he calls, "unleash your power" inside. That is done through decision making and understanding how they affect us. And you are taught how to control that "power" and let it shape your life.
It can take some time practicing his principles, but after all, why else get a book on self improvement unless we intend to improve ourselves. That is what I liked about the book. It's not just to gain some knowledge on a certain topic, but to actually improve your life in some way; and the principles are legitimate too. No quick fixes, but the real thing. The book also keeps your attention, which is needed for a book this size. He does it by clever cartoons here and there, questions he asks you to write down and actual exercises that can be applied just about wherever you are. It's not perfect by any means, but if you have the time and you seriously want to improve what you have or don't have, this book is for you.
Move This Book to the Top of Your Reading List May 17, 2010

This book has just been added to my Top 5 recommended list. While the author provides incredible detail and analysis on our actions, decisions, behaviors, etc, he also provides practical exercises and guidance to get started making changes today. He discusses the difference between decisions and preferences, the 5 steps to make important changes now, and his patented Neuro-Associative Conditioning. There are the 10 Action signals, which remind you to do something different right away. There are several exercises on goal-setting and understanding your own rules. He concludes the book with a lengthy discussion on healthy eating and exercising--after all, if you don't take proper care of yourself, little else matters! Overall, this is a well-rounded approach to getting a real handle on where you have come from, where you are, and pointing to where you want to be. Invest the time to read this now!
