About the Author
A Millionaire by the age of twenty-four, Anthony Robbins is an entrepreneur -- the founder of nine companies -- and the best-selling author of Unlimited Power, a book now published in thirteen languages around the world. Considered the nation's leader in human development training, he is the founder and chairman of the board of Robbins Research International, Inc., the research and marketing arm of his personal development businesses.

Deeply committed to contribution and making a difference, he has established The Anthony Robbins Foundation as a philanthropic organization dedicated to assisting those individuals who would not otherwise be reached. By enabling our nation's youth, elderly, homeless, and prison population to tap their inner resources, the Foundation empowers these often-forgotten members of our society to become valuable contributors as well.

Since 1984, millions of people have enjoyed the warmth, humor, and dynamic presentation style of Mr. Robbins's corporate, sales, and personal development seminars. He has been a peak performance consultant to the executives of such organizations as IBM, AT&T, American Express, McDonnell-Douglas, and the United States Army, as well as professional sports teams, such as the Los Angeles Dodgers, Seattle Mariners, and gold medal-winning Olympic athletes.

Mr. Robbins is thirty-two years old and lives in Del Mar, California, with his wife and children.

Awaken by the Numbers
Obviously Tony Robbins is a very committed and intense individual. That is worth 3 stars. But, a self-help book should be just that: a book that enables you to help yourself, so you don't need to use Tony or his seminars or tapes for constant reinforcement.

The book is applicable to everyday life situations, but the practicality is questionable. Everything he writes has been said before, and could be distilled down to a few lines that you could concentrate on, as has been done by other Spiritualists. Instead, you need to remember 6 NAC steps, 5 problem solving questions, 10 emotions of power, 6 steps to emotional mastery, 10 Action signals, 6 Master steps to change, and the list goes on. Whew! You need a briefcase just to carry all that around with you.

The bottom line is no one is going to remember all those steps. So what do you do then?

Who can Argue with Success?
Awaken the Giant Within encourages taking control of ones life to promote positive change. Robbins has read extensively on human development and has rolled many worthwhile concepts into his book. He explores topics including belief systems, how to change, positive decision making, destroying blocks to success and more. This book gives a good overview of how to take better control of one's like.

The reading is quick, but he could have been somewhat less verbose and get the same points across. Then again, it is a relatively minor point if this is what is needed to motivate people to take control of their lives.

Although interesting, Robbin's book did not change me significantly. Almost all of his concepts can be found in other sources. However, Robbins work has helped many people a great deal. Thus, it would be unwise to argue with this success!
