What began as a young person’s desire to help individuals transform the quality of their lives has grown into Robbins’ lifelong crusade as he is called on by leaders from every walk of life— CEOs of multinational corporations, psychologists, peak performance athletes, world-class entertainers, presidents, political leaders, advocates for humanity, CEOs of multinational corporations, psychologists, peak performance athletes, world-class entertainers, teachers, and parents. Since fathering the life coaching industry, Robbins has been honored by Accenture as one of the “Top 50 Business Intellectuals in the World”; by Harvard Business Press as one of the “Top 200 Business Gurus”; by American Express as one of the “Top Six Business Leaders in the World” to coach its entrepreneurial clients; by Forbes as a Top 100 Celebrity; by Justice Byron White as one of the world’s “Outstanding Humanitarians”; and by the International Chamber of Commerce as one of the top 10 “Outstanding People of World.” Robbins has produced the #1-selling audio coaching system of all time. He also is a corporate Vice Chairman, and Chairman overseeing five private companies.
Robbins was born Anthony J. Mahavorick in North Hollywood, California. He was raised in Azusa, California, and he attended Glendora High School. His parents divorced when he was seven years old, and his mother later remarried twice. Tony took on the surname of Jim Robbins, his second stepfather.
In 1994, a routine medical check revealed a tumor in Robbins' pituitary gland. Robbins explains in Personal Power that the tumor was actually an adenoma that had infarcted several years earlier. Due to the pressure of the adenoma on his pituitary gland, he had circulating levels of growth hormone several times higher than what would be normal for an adult his age. This had resulted in a subclinical manifestation of the disease known as acromegaly, which doctors told Robbins was responsible for his remarkable growth spurts as a teenager, as well as his large hands and feet. (He is 6 feet 7 inches tall, or 201 cm). After consulting with multiple physicians, Robbins decided not to have the adenoma resected, as it was not causing any clinical manifestations.
In a CNN interview in 2001, Robbins said it was difficult to end his 15-year marriage to Becky Robbins, saying it was the toughest decision of his life. He said that he also knew if he stayed with her, he'd be ruining her life and his. Robbins reiterates similar comments about his previous relationship in his recent Ultimate Relationship Program.
Robbins started his career promoting seminars for Jim Rohn, and then started teaching neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) after learning it from NLP co-founder John Grinder.
Grinder encouraged Robbins to look into the firewalking experience. In 1983, Robbins located Tolly Burkan and learned how to firewalk from him. Robbins then added firewalking to his seminars, which enabled him to gain media coverage and launch his celebrity status. Robbins later began to teach Neuro-Associative Conditioning (NAC) and "Human Needs Psychology".
In his Personal Power program, he says that the difference between NAC and NLP lies in the use of the word 'conditioning' instead of the word 'programming'. The word 'conditioning' implies that the subject has greater responsibility for his or her own change, as opposed to being programmed by someone else.
Anthony Robbins calls himself a peak performance coach rather than a motivational speaker. He tries to find out what people do when they are at their peak and then help them access that peak state whenever necessary. He believes what he does is more effective than providing temporary motivation.
Robbins also conducts seminars, including his four-day Unleash the Power Within (UPW) seminar, and his Mastery University, which includes Life Mastery, Date With Destiny, and Wealth Mastery.The UPW is also known as his firewalk seminar, during which the participants walk barefoot over hot coals at the end of the first evening. 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 take action ('Personal Power'). Robbins' philosophy asserts that fear often holds people back from achieving what they want with their life, and that fear is a more powerful motivator than desire or attraction. Walking safely on burning coals (with the correct preparation of the coals, and instruction of the participants) requires no special physical skills, you simply have to have the courage to brave it. Applying that same principle to other aspects of life can empower the individual to attempt tasks he or she would previously (erroneously) have considered impossible.
Mastery University is promoted at the UPW seminar. Life Mastery, espouses Robbins' ideas about what makes for a healthy lifestyle, and has in the past featured guest lecturers including Deepak Chopra and John Gray (U.S. author). Date With Destiny, the only Mastery event at which Robbins is present for the entire event, is said to be designed to help participants align their values so that they are not in conflict, but rather are aligned with the participant's individual goals. Wealth Mastery teaches concepts which believers feel can facilitate financial wealth.
In 1997, Robbins initiated his Leadership Academy seminar, in which he invites participants to learn the skills he uses, with the stated goal of the program to enable the participant to "create an identity for yourself as someone who can help anyone, no matter what his/her challenge may be." Recently Robbins has appeared at many of The Learning Annex Real Estate Wealth Expos as a headline speaker, and at the Technology, Entertainment and Design (TED conference) conference. Robbins promotes a mainly vegetarian and vegan lifestyle and endorses the views of Robert Young and Natural Hygiene practices regarding the need for an alkaline diet, in which proteins and carbohydrates are consumed separately. In recent events, he has included fish into his diet plan, citing the need for omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids in a complete diet. He has also praised John Robbins' book Diet for a New America.

Snowy River revival 'a complete failure'
Campaigners fighting to restore the health of the once mighty Snowy River say the legislation that promised to restore the river's flow is a sham.
Seven years ago the Snowy River Alliance celebrated the corporatisation of the Snowy Hydro Authority.
The legislation included provisions apparently committing the Commonwealth, New South Wales and Victorian governments to restoring the Snowy's environmental flows.
But jubilation has given way to despair.
Alliance vice-chairwoman Louise Crisp says parts of the river are running out of time.
"Basically the river has possibly only 18 months before some of the upper section will die," she said.
"It's been a complete failure as far as what the community expected.
"None of the legislated target flows are binding and neither are the environmental objectives."
Ms Crisp says the Snowy's annual natural flow sits at 4 per cent below the Jindabyne Dam, but the agreed target for June 2009 was 15 per cent.
The Alliance has been advised it has little chance of suing the three governments for failing to live up to their promises.
- 'NSW responsible' -
Craig Ingram is the independent member for the Victorian seat of Gippsland East and a former member of the Snowy River Alliance.
On his election to parliament in 1999, the Victorian Labor Party gave him an undertaking that it would work to have an environmental flow of 28 per cent returned to the Snowy, and Mr Ingram's resulting support helped them take office.
He blames the New South Wales Government for the Snowy River stalemate.
"New South Wales under the agreements and under the legislation is the responsible government, if I can use that term very loosely," he said.
"They have systematically failed to deliver on the intent, the spirit and what the community thought they were getting when they signed up to the agreement.
"One of the disappointing things is that we really haven't had the level of support from the New South Wales Opposition that we should have had to hold the New South Wales Government to account.
"And basically they've been missing in action on this."
He said the other governments should probably have taken action against New South Wales.
"I think it's probably time they actually investigate their legal avenues to ensure that the money that's been contributed by the other stake-holding governments delivers the environmental outcomes that the community expects," he said.
"If New South Wales isn't prepared to do it, then the other governments should force them to do it."
Rudd no-show upsets Labor MPs
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has been criticised by a West Australian Labor frontbencher for pulling out of the party's State Conference in Perth.
Mr Rudd was to be the keynote speaker at this weekend's conference but cancelled earlier this week, citing a clash in schedules.
In a speech to the conference, Senator Chris Evans said Federal Labor was at risk at the next election unless it won back four marginal seats from the Liberals in WA.
But Labor's state agriculture spokesman Mick Murray told the conference that federal ministers seemed reluctant to visit Western Australia.
He said they needed to provide better support to the local branch.
"We are a good opposition, a very good opposition," he said. "We need support from our federal colleagues, and if we don't do that, what's the point of hearing speech after speech and saying, 'we need to win four seats in WA'?"
"I must say that anyone who's been in parliament and watched the Liberal Party members mock our shadow members because they have more access to our federal ministers than we do, would be ashamed, absolutely ashamed, like I was.
"I had to put my head down, bite my tongue."
Shark attack victim 'amazed' by lucky escape
The man attacked by a shark on the New South Wales South Coast on Saturday morning says the experience will not stop him surfing, though it might take a while before he ventures back into the water.
Les Wade was surfing at Seven Mile Beach at Gerroa just before 9:00am when he felt something push him from behind.
He says he thought it was another surfer but then he turned and spotted a shark.
"I didn't realise what had happened," he said. "I paddled back out and said, 'I think there's a shark and I think it's just bit me'.
"The other guys sort of looked at me as if to say 'OK'."
Mr Wade was taken to hospital and a wound to his lower leg wound needed 50 stitches.
The life-long surfer says he is amazed that he did not sustain more severe injuries.
"I'm very lucky. I have to go and buy a lotto ticket on Tuesday or Wednesday."
- Beach closed -
Surf Life Saving NSW duty officer John Restuccia says signs have been erected on the beach near Crooked River to remind people the area is closed and that they swim there at their own risk.
"[Sunday] morning our local jetboat in that area, at Kiama, [will] just have to patrol the area and make sure everything's still all right down there," he said.
The Australian Aerial Patrol says the attack is a timely reminder about the prevalence of sharks, despite the end of summer.
Climate groups welcome US legislation
A decision by the US House of Representatives to pass historic legislation to limit pollution blamed for global warming should help December's climate talks in Copenhagen, the Australian Conservation Foundation says.
American MPs voted with a 219-212 margin to support the "American Clean Energy and Security Act", which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 17 per cent from 2005 levels by 2020, and 83 per cent by 2050.
Climate lobby groups in Australia have welcomed Friday's vote, but say it's a wake-up call for the nation's political parties to agree to action on climate change.
"The passing of this legislation will give good encouragement for Copenhagen negotiations as it shows that the US is starting to move on climate action," ACF executive director Don Henry said in a statement on Saturday.
"It is a reminder that we need to get cracking and pass good climate laws in Australia; otherwise we will be left behind."
In welcoming the vote, the Climate Institute has called on Australian political parties to refocus over the winter break to ensure the nation's clean energy and emissions trading scheme legislation is "strengthened and passed".
"The Climate Institute calls on the Australian government and other political parties, if they are serious about backing an effective global agreement, to come forward with plans to drive low carbon industrial development here and around the world," a statement from the institute says.
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, meanwhile, delivered a speech calling on rich countries to assist those in the developing world to cope with the effects of global climate change.
His speech on Friday was intended to break the political stalemate over a global deal on greenhouse gas emissions.
But while there had been positive action in the UK and the US, action in Australia had stalled, the Climate Institute said.
"This is not only high risk in terms of the climate crisis, this is high risk in missing out on the low carbon economic train that is leaving the station around the world."
GroceryChoice scrapping 'no broken promise'
The Federal Treasurer Wayne Swan has denied the Government has broken an election promise by scrapping the GroceryChoice website.
The Government spent $8 million setting up the site which was to be administered by the consumer group Choice.
The initiative was dumped this week after the Government decided it was not going to provide consumers with up-to-date information.
Mr Swan is in Perth for the Western Australia Labor Party state conference.
He says the Government is working to come up with a better program.
"We think what is happening at the kitchen table is important which is why we brought forward this important initiative" he said.
"It turns out that it is not possible to get the accurate and precise information in the form that we want so we are going back to have another look at how we can best do that."
- Hidden agenda -
But the Opposition's Treasury spokesman, Joe Hockey, has accused the Government of trying to hide its decision to dump the website.
Mr Hockey says announcing the news yesterday was a strategic ploy by the Government.
"Obviously the news cycle was dominated by Michael Jackson's death," he said.
"It says everything about the Government that it would bury one of its most significant election promises and quietly hope that no-one attends the funeral."
