Awaken the Giant Within: How to Take Immediate Control of Your Mental, Emotional, Physical & Financial Destiny! by Tony Robbins
4.0
Loved the method of how he recommends going through your values and beliefs. I've heard many of these things before in other books or in therapy, but hearing it put together in this order was a great reminder and a nice way of putting the pieces together.
Did not love how much he humble brags. Did not love that how much he spoke in absolute terms about certain ideas. Thought he got long-winded. Felt a little bit like he was pushing certain ideas of how one should live their life. In today's lens, sometimes felt a bit like mansplaining.
And hilarious/disturbing to see what was en vogue in the early '90s. Included references to Donald Trump, OJ, and Bill Cosby before we found out they were horrible people. What he says about them still stands, as it pertains to their professional accomplishments (and missteps in DJT). Just unfortunate in light of what we know today. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
