More about Tony Robbins.

I have learned tremendously from him - I have learned how to feel very confident and determined in many situations where I have to feel like that - I learned how to overcome huge debilitating shyness in public speaking and other areas of my life, how to feel a number of emotions I had never felt in my life before and thus how to get in touch with my emotional side which I had never allowed to develop until then.

Through Tony's teachings, I learned how to re-program my mind to really enjoy eating certain foods that all my life I had always found disgusting - thus for the first time in my life, I started not only being able to eat, but also loving raw spinach, corn, lettuce, salads, green peppers and other vegetables I had always found disgusting and had refused to eat. Now, several years later, one of my favorite meals is raw spinach with olives which I eat almost daily, something I would have found completely disgusting and repelling before I learned the stuff from Tony Robbins.

There's a lot more of great stuff I've learned from him, that I haven't mentioned. Things that I have never really seen elsewhere since, and I've read and listened to a lot of other audio books but haven't found that kind of information.

Nevertheless, my wish is that I had realized much sooner then I guess some of you guys did that he isn't the one-and-be-all-solution, because I was broke and poor for several years while listening to mainly him. When I decided to put all his material in a box and away and learn from others, I noticed I was able to once again start making a lot of beneficial changes.

Thus, I don't think he is a scam-artist - because some of his information and teaching is so incredible valuable and helpful and I still use it regularly. However, I no longer routinely recommend him to friends and people, and if I do, I try to give a lot of caveat and "be careful" about certain traps one may fall into when you find out how revolutionary helpful some of his teaching is.
