THE SINGLE, MOST IMPORTANT PIECE OF ADVICE

According To Tony Robbins

Working with an experienced business coach is your ultimate tool to achieve results. Some of the most wildly successful companies and entrepreneurs on the planet rely on business coaching services to become talkably different from the competition.

But, in a fast-growing industry, with so many making coaches reaching celebrity status, there is one coach who has been standing tall for four decades; business coach behemoth, Tony Robbins. More than 50 million people have enjoyed the warmth, humor and transformational power of his business and personal development events. He’s America’s #1 life and business strategist, author of six internationally bestselling books and creator of the #1 personal and professional development program of all time.

So, what is it that keeps highpower executives, politicians, and celebrities saving Robbins to the top of their contact list?

Put simply, the 6’7” superhero-sized coach knows how to pull the magic out of his clients.

In the Netflix documentary, Tony Robbins: I Am Not Your Guru, Robbins shares what he calls the single most important piece of business advice he gives his clients;

“There are always two businesses you’ve got to manage.”

“There’s the business you’re in, and the business you’re becoming. If you just manage the business you’re in, you’re going to get knocked out by a new technology or new competition. But, if you’re constantly managing two businesses, you won’t have to quit or pivot, because you’re always doing something to innovate, or to change, or to improve.”

In other words, this man never stops. And, neither should you. If you want to thrive in business, according to Tony Robbins, you need two!

At just 17, Robbins attended a seminar by the motivational speaker Jim Rohn and began selling Rohn seminars until he realized his own professional calling. With a rough upbringing, a string of stepfathers, an alcoholic mother, and a period of homelessness, he still emotionally reaches with his audiences decades later.

His life today is a far cry from such humble beginnings. He has fine tuned a few rituals that bring out his best performance, including a routine morning dip in a 57-degree plunge pool and a pre-performance mini trampoline jumping session to charge up his batteries. Robbins believes in working on yourself first.

“I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach, who walk their talk.” —Tony Robbins

Another ritual he’s performed for 30 years: “I do a little shift in my body to get myself in a strong physical state, and then I say, ‘I now command my subconscious mind to direct me in helping as many people as possible today.’

“I’m always working on myself. I’m always willing to improve and grow.”

From Olympic athletes to business and political leaders, the best of the best have a coach. A coach isn’t just there to help you achieve your initial goals – your coach is with you along the way, continually pushing you and your team to achieve even greater results.

“I learn the patterns - Patterns of success or failure within each individual person. I am in the breakthrough business, I focus on figuring out their patterns, get inside their brains, figure out what limits them and break through the blockages,” Robbins told inc.com.

He says you can’t focus on money. Your driver has to be all about service and doing good.

“I’m really in the relationship business. My primary question is just, ‘How can I help?’ When you’re doing that on an ongoing basis, that builds a relationship, because you’re not asking for things. You’re giving all the time.”

“First, understand the needs of the people in the room. It cant be about you. You have to stop thinking about yourself. Your entire focus is how to serve them and how to get them where they need to go. Motive MATTERS. Truly serve. This is when your insights come into it.”

“When you play the game of life at a higher level, it helps you to raise your game in life.”

“As an employer, changing the life of your employers, really giving to them, makes you rare. This builds trust and opens up doors. Be authentic, ask what do they need and want and how can you best deliver this.”

Tony also says it’s vital to surround yourself with the best of the best. Whatever goals you have, spend more time with people who can elevate you toward it.
