Finally a reality series worth watching. It is called Breakthrough with Tony Robbins now showing on NBC (and Hulu). It follows Tony Robbins (self-help author and success coach) as he helps the show’s participants face their personal challenges.
What is a Breakthrough?
A Breakthrough is a moment in time when the impossible becomes possible. When something happens that shapes you, that moves you. Maybe you meet someone who inspires you. Maybe it’s a tool or a strategy that you learn. Maybe you finally get so fed up you won’t settle for the life that you have any more. It’s when something inside of you clicks and everything changes. You take massive action and you transform your life. More about Tony’s Breakthrough show here.
The show – Breakthrough with Tony Robbins
I just finished watching Episode 1 (hulu video below) where Tony Robbins helps married couple Frank and Kristen come back together after a tragic accident. The story show us how doing something different helps you to see & experience the world in a different light instead of sitting at home feeling sorry for yourself & living inside false thoughts (your head). Tony is amazing at helping people realise their potential. This is a must watch!
The ONLY reason you don’t have exactly what you want is the story you keep telling yourself about why you can’t have it or don’t have it already! ~ Tony Robbins

What Tony teaches us in this show (the take-away / to-go)
- There is no challenge you cannot face or overcome.
- The events of our lives do not control our lives.. our decisions do.
- Life gives us these events because we have to grow. Realise this. Welcome it.
- To feel meaningful and alive we must have progress. Progress is Growth.
- Whatever you fear today is small when compared to a bigger fear. Fear is always comparable.
- It’s not what we face rather what we do with what we face that matters. It’s the action to unleash your human spirit to change your game of life.
- The worst thing one can do is to not take control of the force that controls your life. And that force is human emotion.
- All breakthroughs start with a change in your beliefs.
- Your beliefs make you “feel certain” and no talking (lecturing) can change you like an “experience”. An experience where you realise something deep.
- You get freedom when you push through your fear.
Change your belief by changing your experience – Tony Robbins
How to apply this to our own life – steps to transform
- 1. Identify where you live emotionally. eg. depression, anger, feeling guilty /sad etc… that should good emotional fuel to take action. One side of the paper write down what empowering emotions you experience in a week eg. love, peace. And on the other side disempowering emotions eg. fear, depressed, overwhelmed etc. Circle the top 2 on each side.
- 2. Identify the antidote. If fear is controlling things, we need an antidote called Courage. Courage doesn’t just mean you are scared, but it means you are scared but will do it anyway. It’s an emotional muscle. You just excercise it by facing it head first. Identify the emotional state(s) you would you like to feel (to change the game) when experiencing those disempowering states and use them as an antidotes.
- 3. Practise that emotion. Do it enough consciously that you can go from frustrated / depressed to determined. “Emotion is created by motion.” Notice how you motion changes when you are sad. eg. slow, body sagging (body language). Realise that this affects your “emotion”. Knowing what to change when it happens will help you practise the antidote in response to a disempowering emotion. Ask yourself “what do I do when I feel loved / happy”. What are my antidotes? – from worried to determined, from not sure to focused etc.. learn and practise that emotion.
- 4. Condition it. Up to a point so that it becomes automatic (a habit). Figure out where you live emotionally and practise it 3/4 times a day for 7 days. If you want to learn about building habits visit my prior post here.
And remember…
New pattern = New life
Our life is a reflection of our emotional patterns.
You can face any challenge from those emotions and overcome it.
You can do this yourself right now!!
The best way to keep something in your body is to share it with someone else. It has to be about WE, not just me. Pay it forward by sharing this post with people you feel will benefits from this knowledge.
We can make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong, the amount of work to get there is the same. ~ Anthony Robbins
Enjoy!
