    Oh, I clicked on this article because I thought Tim Robbins (Susan Sarandon’s ex) was hosting a reality show. Guess I was wrong.

    Reading these comments by losers making fun of a successful man, it seems like you guys are the ones who need Tony Robbins the most!

  • Mandy

    Joe- Awesome! Couldn’t have said it better myself. Classic! You go Joe!

  • Tony listener since 1990

    I can’t wait to watch Tony in action again. I attended his seminar back in 1992 and did not know that after 5 hours we were expected to do the fire walk.

    I did not believe I could do it because years ago I had suffered 3rd degree burns on my feet. I was a baton twirler in high school and was rehearsing with the band during the summer. I had flip flops on and one of them busted while marching on the boiling hot pavement.

    This is the kind of pain you NEVER forget.

    There were approximately 1000 of us at the Hilton Hotel @ LAX and he told us to take off our shoes & socks and walk up to the roof of the Hotel where 12 lines of fire coals were waiting. I went through the motions fearing I would quit just before walking over the red hot coals and just hoped for a miracle.

    I was one of the lucky ones. Tony was at the front of my line and when it was my turn to walk, he asked me: “Are you ready?” (how can you tell Tony no?). He said “Just repeat: COOL MOSS…COOL MOSS”.

    Well, the drumbeats synchronized with my heart and I looked up to the starry sky and DID IT!!

    After they threw cold water at my feet, I ran to the back of the line again to do it again because I didn’t believe I had done it.

    Tony said: “Always remember that if were able to walk on fire today, you can achieve anything you set your heart out to do.”

    He was RIGHT!! Thank you Tony.

    HE’S BAAAAACK !!! Like Osama Bin Laden, he surfaces once in awhile for air, then disappears into thin air never to be seen again.

    Guess it’s time to make some $$$$$ off of all us saps in order to support himself in the life to which he has become accustomed.

    Maybe needs a new Lamborghini trying to keep up with Justin Bieber.

    I could use a session with Mr. Robbins.. I think this Inspiration is so great in our funk of time! I really like his humor and lightness and the way he deals with peoples pain..
