Tony Robbins (born February 29, 1960) is a renowned American motivational speaker, personal development guru, author, and investor. He works with a wide variety of people ranging from normal everyday people at his popular live events to powerful businessmen, celebrities, and politicians. It’s no stretch to say that Robbins is likely the most successful motivational speaker in history. Apart from the lives he has changed, his net worth is estimated to be in excess of $500 million.
Robbins had a difficult upbringing, leaving home at age 17 and struggling to make ends meet. He turned his life around after meeting legendary motivational speaker, Jim Rohn. Robbins went to work with Rohn and eventually struck out on his own in the personal development and motivational speaking world. His career took off from there as he has organized countless in-person seminars/retreats, personal coaching, and television/documentary appearances.
In addition to his live events and personal coaching, Robbins is a successful author and has published a number of bestselling books on personal development, personal growth, and personal finance and investing. Robbins is also an active philanthropist. He founded the Anthony Robbins Foundation in 1991 to help the homeless, hungry, elderly, and imprisoned. He donated all profits from his 2014 book “Money: Master the Game” to Feeding America. He also works with organizations to provide fresh water to impoverished areas of the world, and organizations that fight against child trafficking.
Robbins stands for hope and inspiration, placing a high emphasis on empowering people to navigate the challenges in their lives and be their best selves. He provides actionable strategies for achieving peak performance, overcoming fear and emotion, delivering value, having confidence, and achieving one’s goals.
That Robbins has maintained his popularity over several decades is a testament to the value people get from his work and his message. There’s no doubt that he has helped perhaps millions of people in dealing with their struggles and there is great wisdom in much of his teachings and philosophy.
