The most important book you should read today
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2018
Although I have always been impressed with Tony Robbins because of extraordinary philanthropic record, my respect for him skyrocketed when I read “Awaken the Giant Within.” This is certainly one those “change your life” books. Tony starts the book with the three steps to success, and then spends the rest of the book inspiring and guiding the reader to improve his life dramatically. The first of the three steps that Tony says is to raise your standards. By reading his approach to this fundamental concept of self-improvement, I realized that I was accepting so many things in my life that, if I would only raise my standards, would be so much improved. From the standpoint of running a business, I began to see how many more people I could help, and in my personal life, too, I realized that I certainly could increase the time I spent with my family and also pursue other personal goals as well. In fact, since I finished the book I have now gotten my spoken French to a much more fluent level and have even performed a short stand-up comedy bit to group of about fifty people.
One of the themes that Tony constantly teaches is that everything we do is for one of two reasons: increase pleasure or avoid pain. He often uses weight loss strategies as a way to help readers think of ways to use the pleasure/pain principal in their lives. I decided to apply that, and started on a weight loss program, too. Although I wasn’t suffering from being terribly overweight, I had certainly let a few too many pounds slip on over the years. Moreover, I had also moved towards a less healthy diet. By internalizing Tony’s approach, I have not only cut out all processed sugars from my diet (no cakes, cookies, candy) which will lower my chances to get diabetes one day, but I also was able drop about 15 pounds, bringing me almost to my ideal weight (where I expect to be within another month or two).
These are just a few examples of how reading “Awaken” has improved my life. There are many more, and I am just one of millions of people who’ve had their lives improved because of Tony Robbins. I strongly suggest this book to everyone.

happiness, health and the most important lesson was to ...
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2016
Tony Robbins exemplifies his life coach teaching styles in a way that empowers the reader to self fulfilment. This book forces you to conduct a reality check and take a hard look in the mirror. It helps you to realize your flaws and "TAKE ACTION" and do something about it. After reading this book I was able to get out of my depression and stop blaming others for my pitfalls. I went from a 6 figure job to unemployed and almost losing my home. I moved in with my parents and that is when I bought this book. Since then (2008) I have used the information towards my own benefit and accomplished things I never thought I could, money, happiness, health and the most important lesson was to slow down and enjoy everything I do. I hope you are able to grab the flame from this book and empower yourself with the use of wisdom Tony has put together.
Basic lesson is this: You are a reflection of all of your past thoughts and actions...but you are not your past...its all in your mind stuck leaving you in a rut and this book is the tow truck to help "you" get yourself out.

It's okay [understatement alert] :)
Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2017
I was slightly prejudiced about Tony simply because I didn't know anything about him, except he seemed to be a big loud American (all true and not a negative) and a bit too much like a religious preacher. In Ireland we're quicker to take someone down rather than build them up so people with those quick assessments will be avoided.
I've read all the top 40 and probably top 100 personal development books out there. Eventually I was running out of ones to read. And I would still come across recommendations for this book every now and then. So I read it. It's brilliant and I wish I read it a few years ago.
I am a willing open audience as I've previously read all the books and science information this is based on. Yet Tony brought more insight, different compelling articulation, and real world application beyond what I'd read before to have me raving about this book.
It's worth more than the money charged just for the chapter on "rules" and then again for the chapter on "emotions". It's a ridiculous bargain for what I've gained from it and I've since bought it as a Kindle gift for many friends.
It's a shame the Audible version is so abridged and unavailable in a full version. Maybe Tony feels it may take away from his audio products sales. I would love an unabridged Audible version and would buy it for many people as a gift.

I ended up with a list of 28 qualities I’d like to have in a partner
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2017
Life changing for me. It’s really helpful if you actually do what Tony suggests.
I jokingly made a list of qualities I wanted in a person as well as a list of things I would not tolerate in someone. Tony suggests a much shorter list. But I was determined to get what I really wanted! I ended up with a list of 28 qualities I’d like to have in a partner. I laughed as I continued to write and thought to myself, “No wonder I’m single!”
About one month later I met someone I really liked. By this time I had completely forgotten about the list. After dating for a couple of weeks, I remembered the list and I went back to read it. Not only was she was everything on the list, but I ended up adding 2 more things because of her.
There’s so much more in this book than a plan to find a great match. I plan on reading this book again!

This is my first book by Tony Robbins. WOW! This book is choked full of wisdom. I read 50 books a year and recommend only a couple. I PUT THIS BOOK ON MY LIST OF 10 BOOKS EVERYONE SHOULD READ. This is one of those books I wished I read when it came out in 1991. I will read this book again. Tony Robbins is a genius at getting to the core of your mental, physical and financial destiny in easy-to-understand language with lists and action items. I love that he encourages people to give back. Over 500 pages of the best advice I have ever read!

When reading this book, answer the questions, go through the exercise uses to understand why this book has received 5.5k positive reviews (on average).
Before reading this, I have been bouncing around book after book reading advice and while Awaken the Giant repeats a lot of stuff.
It does offer timeless principles that are useful for everyone, regardless of where you are and what you are doing in life.
Awaken the Giant to me is awakening your personal giant since all of us are different and we all have different desires.
For me, I have found what I need to do: Stay continuously focused on digital marketing, no more shiny object syndrome, watching random YouTube videos, just stay focused on one thing at a time and while experiencing new things is important be sure to cut the unnecessary from your life.
One good example Tony goes into is what do you define a friend, for some people they need to be with them on a daily basis, others you can go a month or two without even speaking to them. For me since I'm introverted , it is definitely someone I can have deep conversations with since anybody can talk about shallow topics (news, sports, TV, drama, whatever is trending on social media).
Point is, I'd you want to awaken the giant, do the exercises in the book and actually answer the questions.

You should read this book FIRST.
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2021
Most of the personal development books that are being released today are obviously just ripping off Awaken The Giant Within. This book is golden and it was written before social media so it is a million times better than all the others. It’s written with intelligence as a focus rather than attention spans.
Read Awaken The Giant Within and take lots of notes and then not only will your outlook on life drastically improve, but you’ll save thousands of dollars on buying books because you’ll be able to spot all the knock offs of this one.
I highly recommend Awaken The Giant Within. You cannot live your life without reading this.

I like Tony Robbins which is not some commercial for him, only that the content of this book is solid and helpful.

Give this book a second chance - I did
Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2019
Years ago, I felt that Tony Robbins was too mainstream - too loud, opinionated and 'in your face' to offer anything to someone like me. His personality seemed over the top, and his voice just irritated me. After watching a Netflix documentary about him ("I Am Not Your Guru") I have to admit that I have had a shift in how I now view the Tony Robbins 'brand' - he's really a hard-working guy who seems truly invested in helping other people. Granted, he's loud and slightly intimidating, but what he has to say - at its core - is common sense. I returned to his book to give him a second chance, and I'm learning to take responsibility for things that have happened in my life. Useful and wise.

If you have doubts, just read it. Make up your own mind, don't worry with reviews good or bad. There's so much covered in this book, I can promise that something will hit home and speak to you. I honestly think this should be a text book and covered in early schooling prior to college. While the frontal lobe is developing and impressionable, young adults should be learning focus, positive thinking, self confidence, fundamental psychology and behavior like this during these crucial years. Just my opinion and I already told you, you should ignore my opinion! Just give it a read!

To be honest, I resisted looking into anything Tony Robbins for years. What turned me around was a warning he gave on YouTube about the looming financial crisis in the USA. I never expected that from him. Made me view him favorably. If the guy could be truthful about a bad situation, and not gloss over it with a bunch of Positive Mental Attitude crap, maybe he was an authentic person. So I bought this book. I read Think and Grow Rich and Psychocybernetics years ago and loved them both and reread them both. I have found every other author to merely regurgiate their concepts. This books does that too, but also offers concrete tools for setting your mind to think at the 50,000 foot level as far as goals go. He shares the methodology he used to arrive at decisions, the self-talk he had with himself, the adjustments he made along the way. I found it to be a very personal book. I may or may not read another Tony Robbins book, but I found this book to be as comprehensive as humanly possible. If you only want to buy one Robbins book, you will be satisfied with this one.

First Class Self-Help & NLP For Everyone
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2006
Tony Robbins' second book, 'Awaken the Giant Within', is one of the best self-help titles available today. It is an excellent companion to his first book, 'Unlimited Power', and while I agree with other reviewers that 'Giant' is not as brief, still, it is not to be missed for it's excellent content. I also recommend any of his CD programs or personal seminars.
One of Robbins' greatest gift is his ability to simplify the sometimes overly complex terminology and methodology of NLP into a series of straightforward processes easily understood by anyone. As a result, he has managed to make a very powerful technology for personal growth and change accessible to the masses without watering it down.
Richard Bandler, one of the co-founder's of NLP, dedicates his book 'Time For A Change' to Robbins and refers to him as 'one of the few geniuses of our time'. Robbins received training directly from Bandler, and he is to be commended for being one of a handful of individuals who have paid considerable licensing fees for use of Bandler's material.
I am a certified NLP master practitioner and clinical hypnotherapist and the content of 'Giant' is exceptional. In fact, it was this book that inspired me to explore NLP in the first place.
If you're looking for solid success coaching 'in print' and a powerful set of practical tools and techniques for improving your life in virtually any area, personal or professional, this is a great place to start.
As a professional life and career coach, I use many of the tools and techniques described in this book on a daily basis with my clients with fantastic results. Simply check the testimonials page on my Peak Performance Group website and see for yourself.
But don't believe me, buy the book, and learn and practice the material until you experience the results for yourself!

For the past 7 years I have "studied" Robbins, as part of a 25 year long quest, like many of you, trying to improve my life as well as understand the "whys" of what we do as individuals. I have read most of the "alternative authors" suggested in previous reveiws.
Initially, I was not positive on Robbins based on his hype, selling style, etc. Yet, I still came back to his material (tapes) because they provided some great ideas and Robbins has had the opportunity to study, learn from and interact with an amazing number of successful people. Finally, about 6 months ago in reading about Robbins and his "eureka" moment when he was exposed to NLP, I realized that it was the material that was the value to me, regardless of the messenger.
This book was in my library for 8 years and I finally read it recently based on my interest in learning about how Robbins himself became successful. This book is one of the best compliations of material on "why" we are the way we are, and some great ideas on how to change. (References, modeling, pain/pleasure, beliefs, CANI!, etc) It is a fantastic summary of Robbins material through 1992. I look forward to his book due in the fall to see what he has been up to since.
And, btw, I now like the "messenger". Ebay is a great source for his tapes at a reasonable price.
