Awaken you sleeping giant... March 22, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
After years of being mesmerized, hypnotized, industrialized, robotic and socially ostracized, I found something that would get me back on my feet again. That was Unlimited Power. This book goes beyond Unlimited Power and once you get it about swooshing and skipping in the street, you GET IT. A similar technigue is used in a new kind of therapy that is teaching people to recognize body postures that keep people stuck in negative states and can trigger a failure mode. A person with confidence doesn't walk around with his shoulders slumped and his arms dragging the ground. Carolina Tarheel players were swooshing all evening yesterday. If you don't like swoosh, find another word.
I have Robbins's tapes as well, you want to improve your life, read this book and DO WHAT IT SAYS, you will get results.

This review is for the 2 Audio CD version of Awaken the Giant Within. While listening to the CD, I kept waiting for the Wow moment, as in when is he going to say something, I think "WOW!". Never happened. The material is good, but simplistic and very basic. It is a good introduction for someone who is becoming aware of self sabotage by their own thoughts and needs a primer to shift their focus. This is like the movie that ends and you know there's definetely going to be a Part 2, because there are too many unanswered questions. In other words this work is the hook, which gives you a taste, and then reels you in (if you allow it), to buy other products authored by Anthony Robbins. I also felt that his using what is plainly NLP methods is highly unethical, regardless of how you package it or rename it.
If you need motivation this one's for you. February 10, 2008

Everyone knows Tony Robbins. I'm sure we all have seen his late night commercials on TV at 2am in the morning. As someone who always would laugh at the commercials I was always intrigued with them at the same time and always found myself watching them til they were over. Well flash forward a few years and in desperate need of a "LIFE" change I came across this book by Anthony Robbins.
It is a book that I highly recommend. Not only is it filled with commen sense ideas but also is filled with examples of other peoples problems that they overcame. It motivated me to change my negative thinking and behaviors and start to live a more positive life. What Tony made me understand is that obstacles are not brick walls but small challenges that we can over come. Positive thinking is more than just thinking positive but "Living" positive.
I highly recommend this to anyone who needs a little motivation to change their life for the better. Even if you don't need this push in your life it's still a great read that gives you quite a lot of advice and hints that you can use in your life from the first page that you read. I think you won't be disipointed if you purchase this book and if you really follow his advice you will live a more fulfilling and enjoying life. Do yourself a favor and get one of tony robbins books today if not this one. So Awaken your giant within today.
personal tranformation takes effort and time - here is your coach February 9, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
This really is a great book - full of sound ideas and strategies to promote personal change. The key, though, is to work, to act - and Tony is great at motivating you to that.
My personal history - unable to work, socialise, and pain in movement due to physical illness. I listened to his tape every week and it pumped me up and kept me going as i got into a healthier, spiritual life and got better.
Coming back to the book (i read it before) i'm amazed what i missed first time reading it. There is so much advice here, and its pragmatic and practical. Aswell as energizing.
He has a conversational style, which fleshes out the book. But he gets to the point - getting the reader to take action.
The point is - this guy, this book ... incredible tools for personal growth. To be incredible, they must be used, consistently, over time. And there are tons of people who have done just that.
Buy it ... and good luck!!
