Default Tony Robbins Books

I just got done listening to the 9 CD Think and Grow Rich by Napoloean Hill and I really got a lot out of it.

I must admit though that I have never read a Tony Robbins book but from all of the posts I've read, I have come to the conclusion that I should listen to his philosophy as well.

Thus far I've listened to Think and Grow Rich, read Blink (Malcolm Gladwell), read Overachievement (John Eliot), read the majority of Steve's articles and watched The Secret. What I'm trying to prevent is analysis paralysis. I could spend the next year reading everyday and would be left woth no time to actually do anything with all that I've learned. I'm not looking for shortcuts but I would like to know if you were to reccomend one Tony Robbins book out all of his work, what book would it be.

Thanks.

Unlimited Power - I think this is his most well known book.

The Anthony Robbins book I've found to be most useful has been "Awaken the Giant Within".

"Notes from a Friend" is a very condensed, simplified version of his works, that might be useful to you as well if you just want a really good overview.

If you're more of a listener than a reader then I heartily recommend Get the Edge. It is a quality programme and packs a lot in!

have a great day

The seminars or the tapes are a much better investment than books, because they cause you to interact more.

I've read all of Robbin's books, and I thought Awaken the Giant Within was his best work, followed closely by Unlimited Power. The latter is mostly about NLP, while the former is a more comprehensive guide to personal growth (and significantly longer).

I highly recommend both of these books. His others can be skipped.
