Tony Robbins is a great inspiration, and operates his body/mind/soul with an infectious zeal. He makes no secret that the purpose of his life is to collect, absorb, test, and retail wisdom. The material he presents is valuable and marketable -- he markets it.

In terms of critique, the proof is in the alumni who have taken his "courses". Many have made successes of their lives by finally "hearing" this wisdom because of Tony's ability to communicate it. The only sad part is that he is so caught up in the illusion of "individual entrepreneurship" that he misses the Collective power of organized specialization. The Project is filled with negative aspersions about "Government", missing both the point and the hope of good governance in a participatory representative Republic. Politically, Tony veers into a personality cult. To his credit, he really does model the wisdom he preaches. He fails to understand or teach the social economic discovery of Adam Smith and the benefit of a democratic Republic as a form of governance owned by its citizens. He ends up preaching hatred of "our" Government, which is self-hatred.

Ultimately, "free enterprise" is only unleashed if capitalist/monopolist impulses are regulated by just laws enforced fairly with judicial recourse for violations and breaches. Humans have understood this since Aristotle studied Politics. Greed and corruption have always interrupted our implementations. Ultimately all "self-improvement" movements fail and fall in the face of those interruptions. Tony never challenges the Greed kill.

Tony teaches Unlimited Power by grasping the potential of the human brain. He locked on to Neuro-linguistic Programming, psychological triggers, and couples techniques with business acumen and marketing. Steps include building a ready-State for the mind/body/soul, with physiological body-training and emotionally resonant compassion. "Turn your mess into message" by labelling your own Identity, telling and rewriting your Story, and unfolding your Self. Unlocking your emotional drivers and "secrets" to create breakthroughs. All directed to taking action. "Happiness is a habit," and "Success leaves clues".

He teaches the power of Relationships -- "the greatest evolutionary advantage is Love" -- although he restricts his lessons to the short plays, to intimacy and private partnerships, not the Great Game of polity and Governance. One beautiful contribution is his explicit example of the power of apology, paying restitution, forgiveness, and finding honor in making amends. He uses the healing concept of Hoʻoponopono.

The teaching is filled with reinforcement "triggers" --Tony is primarily a teacher, but pretends to be a leader for the hidden and very limited heuristic purpose of modeling the lessons. As a leader he brings a genuine delight and love for people. The project is filled with charism, non-judgmental acceptance of others, and well-thought out marketing designs. The project brings genuine "opportunity" by enabling us to find the answers that are inside every one of us all the time. We need Tony to help us "see" and hear. ( )
