Tony Robbins has been a fraud for a long, long time. It’s simply not possible to help people in a mass marketing sort of way. For an outrageous personal profit, he sold on-stage performance charisma as a means of genuinely improving the lives of the members of his audience, and it was profoundly dishonest. People who are lost and in trouble need personal, one-on-one help, not the hackneyed bromides of a distant guru.

I disagree.

I purchased his self-help tapes several decades ago, and they made a profound difference in my life.

One of the most important accomplishments was learning about how TV controls your mind, and how to fight back.

We can agree to disagree, or at least I hope we can.

Over the years Robbins may have said all kinds unobjectionable things. Some people may assign undue importance to what they hear on TV, or what they read in books for that matter. Maybe some people first heard from Robbins that they need to carefully evaluate everything they learn from those sources. For myself, I’ve long had a personal BS detector that required no advice from Robbins.

Robbins amassed an immense personal fortune by selling himself as a guru, when in fact he’s a cut rate BS artist who taught himself how to run around on stage and use an imposing physical presence to mesmerize his audience. He’s a fraud.
