You are quite correct KH Rising...
Here are a few more quotes by Robbins on that same subject...
Quote:
The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you’re in control of your life. If youd don’t, life controls you.
But if we fail to direct our own associations to pain and pleasure, we’re living no better than animals or machines, continually reacting to our environment, allowing whatever comes up next to determine the direction and quality of our lives.
Though we’d like to deny it, the fact remains that, what drives our behavior is instinctive reaction to pain and pleasure, not intellectual calculation.
