Anthony Robbin's Philosophy

Philosophy and Ideas

Robbins is the inventor and proponent of what he refers to as neuroassociative conditioning, which is based on Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). Robbins studied NLP under NLP co-founder John Grinder, who encouraged him to look into the firewalk, experience which became the foundation of his popular firewalk seminars. The book Unlimited Power offers a number of examples of how to employ elements of NLP in day to day situations.

He also conducts a number of seminars, most famously his four-day Unleash the Power Within, during which the participants walk over hot coals in bare feet. The aim of the seminar, demonstrated in the firewalk, is to illustrate that the main quality shared by those who achieve greatness is the ability to act ('Personal Power'). Robbins asserts that fear often holds people back from achieving what they desire with their life.

To walk safely on burning coals requires few physical skills, but it does require the mental discipline to overcome one's inner doubts. Applying that same principle to other aspects of life can, it is claimed, empower the individual to attempt tasks he or she would previously (erroneously) have considered impossible.

Health Programs and Recommendations

Robbins also promotes a vegetarian lifestyle and endorses the views of Dr. Robert Young and Natural Hygiene practices regarding the need for an alkaline diet.

Techniques

Among the techniques Robbins teaches are the following:
  • Attempting to alter the body's physiology to achieve a change of emotional state.
  • Asking specific questions to direct one's attention to aspects of human experience that create a more favorable psychology.
  • Getting leverage to create change by associating a person's old behavior with massive pain and the desired new behavior with massive pleasure.
  • Interrupting one's limiting pattern by doing something totally unexpected.
  • Conditioning behaviour by visualizing it over and over again.
  • Goal-setting
  • Creating a "Compelling future", vividly imagining one's end result to generate enthusiasm and power to work towards one's goals.
