Top 7 Free Tony Robbins Resources

With UPW back in London for the first time in 4 years (click here for £800 OFF Ruby tickets!) I spent some time last week revisiting my Power of Momentum workbook for 2012 (more on this below).

It reminded me that Tony’s strategies are shockingly effective. Every time. No single person has had more of an impact on my business, goals, strategies, finances, health & relationships than Tony.

So to help you make 2012 the best year you’ve ever had I have researched, dug into my files and archives and listed below my Top 7 Tony Robbins resources>

1. Tony Robbins Resource 1: Ultimate Edge Audio

This free audio session from Tony is a GREAT one to listen to when you need to recalibrate – when you need a kickstart, and to ask yourself – what am I doing and what do I really want?

I have listed to this countless times and it always has a huge impact.

Free Tony Robbins Goal Setting Plan for 2011

Free Tony Robbins Goal Setting Plan for 2011

Hey guys and gals!

It’s 30th December and the perfect time to be setting some goals for 2011. I am going through this process over the next few days and I strongly urge you to do the same.

Planning out what you want to achieve over the next 12 months (and beyond, but in some detail for the next year) is so valuable. I’d say that if you spend three hours doing this today, they will be the most valuable three hours of your year. It makes all the difference.

I know most of you know how important and powerful goal setting is, but I also know that SO many people DON’T do it, even when they know how good it is – and one of the main reasons why people don’t do it is because they don’t have a process or don’t believe in their process.

FREE Tony Robbins Goal Setting/Planning Process Download

To help you out I am republishing (I do it every year) the absolutely FREE planning process that Big Tony put out a few years ago. Its pretty awesome, simple yet powerful and can really help get you motivated, focused and fired up for your best year yet.

I strongly, strongly recommend you download this PDF and go through this exercise so CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE POWER OF MOMENTUM

And remember: you are not tied to these goals! Relax – if you want to change them later you can!

I hope you enjoy this and I’d love to hear your experiences and ideas in the comments below!

The Importance of Healthy & Alkaline Water

Ross — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 09:22:15 +0000

The Importance of Healthy & Alkaline Water

This week Gareth Edwards, our Alkaline Diet Expert and highly qualified nutritionist, tells us about the importance of healthy and alkaline water and emphasises how the purchase of a water ioniser is one of the best investments to promote health!

The Importance of Healthy & Alkaline Water by Gareth Edwards

American personal development guru Tony Robbins opens his “living health” presentation with the statement that anybody teaching wellbeing who doesn’t start by discussing air and water is best avoided. His argument is that any discussion of macro-nutrients (protein, fat and carbohydrate) is over-shadowed by our body’s need for the super macro-nutrients oxygen and hydrogen dioxide (H2O).

In days gone by, a frequent “prescription” for healing was a recommendation that patients spent time in the Alps. The purity of the air was perceived to be the major potential benefit.

I was there two weeks ago and along with enjoying the fresh “nourishing” air on the mountain tops, I really enjoyed the moments when I stuck my hands into a mountain stream and drunk the glacial melt water copiously. This tasted like the most refreshing and energising drink on the planet and made me wonder why we were carrying plastic bottles of water with us.

Momentous Event:

Two years ago human kind passed something of a mile stone. For the first time ever there were (and still are!), more of us living in urban environments (towns and cities), than in the country side. No matter how we look at it, the water in good old father Thames, the River Ouse, Rhone or Rhine, is not the same (in the cities) as that healthy life giving, negatively charged (and therefore alkaline) glacial melt up in the Alps.

Further Complications:

Water treatment plants make a pretty good job of cleaning up water from rivers and reservoirs but a certain amount of it is recycled. The increasing use of fertilisers means the water table becomes polluted with substances that aren’t filtered out.

Pharmaceuticals consumed by humans and livestock can also find their way into the municipal supply. Additionally fluoride may be added to tap water and there is an acid that is added to all tap water to prevent leaching of lead from old mains. These are being progressively replaced by plastic pipes but plastics can present challenges too.

What’s the Alternative?

All of these concerns and issues have led us to invest in different solutions.

The most prevalent is bottled water, but if we care about ecological issues at any levels and the potential harm from xeno-oestrogens, this absolutely isn’t the answer. Trucking water from the mountains in plastic bottles that require further fossil fuels to be re-cycled at best and that end up in land fill at worst isn’t good for making clean air and water and keeping the rising seas at bay. Xeno-oestrogens are compounds found in plastics that are disruptive to health.

Reverse osmosis and distilling water are other possibilities. The challenge with both of these methods of water purification is that they strip the water of minerals. These minerals can carry a charge that contributes to the waters pH. The product of these methods is often acidic. The fact that marine life cannot survive in the water produced by these methods suggests that these minerals need to be present to support life.

What’s the Answer?

The smart, abundant thinking reader who enjoys winter sports will of course have no hesitation in replying “move to the Alps”. It’s got merit and I may do that, one day. I’m not sure however that there is enough space up there for all of us and not everyone likes skiing, cold weather and climbing!

I really think that a water ioniser offers the best solution anywhere near sea level in producing healthy and alkaline water.

Filtering tap water, separating positively charged (acidic) ions from negatively charged (alkaline) ones, reducing cluster sizes and increasing the anti-oxidant potential are all things that you want in the water you drink.

The Cost…?

It took me a long time, and a lot of bottled mineral water to psych myself up to spend the money on our water ioniser. I’ve never regretted it. They cost a bit but it definitely got in ahead of a television, a new car, a new computer and even a mobile phone.

60% of our bodies are made up of water and if you take health seriously I’d say they are a great way to get filtered alkaline water from the tap. However healthily you eat, flushing stored acids from your body is essential to promote health. Acidic water will make that more difficult to achieve.

One Simple Tip to Totally Transform Your Relationship

Ross — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 23:10:00 +0000

One Simple Tip to Totally Transform Your Relationship

So many relationships get stuck in a cycle of bickering, impatience and intolerance. It is such an easy place to get stuck because these minor arguments and complaints give us a low level benefit. We do actually get something out of them – we get to feel sorry for ourselves.

I have to say, ‘feeling sorry for myself’ is my most disliked emotion. I really do think it is a lazy emotion and to be honest, quite abhorrent. It is such an easy trap to fall into and it is just so damaging to relationships.
But let’s face it, it is also very common. In all manner of relationships (not just with our intimate partner) we subconsciously create rules that we instinctively live by that mean when our partner does something or behaves a certain way then it means x, y or z.

And when that happens, they do something and you feel a negative way and worse than that – you put this negativity back into the relationship with words, actions and behaviours. And unfortunately, 99% of the time the partner reciprocates.

Breaking Free & Getting The Awesome Relationship You Deserve

The question “what else could this mean” has literally transformed the quality of my life and relationships. All of my relationships. Not just my relationship with my partner, but also with my family members, friends, business associates and strangers!

But it really maximises your deepest relationship, the one with your partner.

As Tony Robbins says:

You want to change your life? You need to ask yourself a new question whenever you’re about to get upset – with any person in any relationship and the question is this: “What Else Could This Mean?”

It will change your life if you ask it. Because what happens is, when you are upset, you’re upset not because of what someone did, not because of what they said, but because of the meaning you’ve attached to it. You say “well, they said this and therefore it means that” so you’ve got to ask yourself “what else could this mean” and you’ve got to make yourself come up with as many positive meanings as you could come up with negative”

For example, what if your loved one was supposed to call you at a certain time and they as yet haven’t. How does that make you instantly feel? Maybe you start to think:

He doesn’t care about me
He’s probably off with his friends having fun without me
He’ll be at the pub getting drunk again
I bet he’s working late AGAIN
I never come first in this relationship, why doesn’t he think I’m important
I can never trust him or count on him – he’s useless
I bet he forgot, he NEVER listens

Of course, I bet you can think of a few yourself (and also, of course, it could be ‘she’!).
What kind of state do you think this puts you in? If you think the worst of your partner in this situation, how do you think you react or relate to him/her when they do then call?

Do you think it will make them more or less likely to call next time? Or go out of their way to do something special for you?

Regardless of ‘fault’ – at this stage – by putting yourself in this state and relating to them in this defensive, negative way is going to put incredible strain on the relationship and is likely to only snowball and lead to further problems/arguments.

Now, what might happen if you came up with a whole bunch of positive meanings? An open, new set of possibilities. Why push them away?

This doesn’t mean accepting bad behaviour and letting them get away with what they want, rather it means – never automatically assume that the person is doing this deliberately to hurt you. Most of the time it’s not about you!

Imagine that – it’s not always about you!

So, what else could this mean?

Maybe…

They’re running late for a legitimate reason
Maybe something important has happened
Maybe you didn’t communicate how important it was to be contacted at this time or why you wanted them to contact you
Maybe they’re late because they’re doing something for you
Maybe they’ve got something really important going on in their life right now (fancy that)

It could be any number of reasons, and if you tried you could always come up with more positive possibilities than negative.

When You Communicate With Positivity

Now, when you do communicate like this two things will happen:
1. You’ll be balanced and openminded. You won’t be on the attack. You won’t assume the worst – as when you assume the worst you really hurt the other person and the relationship. Relationship is about teamwork and unity – supporting each other and helping each other, not the opposite, and when you assume the worst of the other person you’re really digging a great big hole for the relationship that people rarely get out of. Don’t fall into the trap of wanting to be right rather than wanting to be in love.

2. Your partner will respond positively back to you and you’ll move towards your shared goals. I promise, they will not see this as a licence to do whatever they want and they won’t see you as a soft touch – in fact the opposite, they will see you as strong and positive.

The more you give your partner this in-control, strong, elegant version of yourself the more they will want to reciprocate and give you the love, connection, growth, respect and warmth you’re after.

Guys especially take note of this – being strong, in-control, measured and confident in these scenarios is extremely attractive to women rather than being needy, weak, paranoid, jealous or just plain argumentative. I promise you, this shift to a more masculine energy rather than feminie energy will draw your lady in. Being argumentative and demanding actually shows your woman weakness and immaturity (yes, even when you shout – these immature emotions show weakness, not strength).

And ladies? The same is true of you. Showing you are confident in a feminine way is ultimately the sexiest thing you can do for yourself and your guy.

I know how easy it is to feel hard done by, sorry for yourself and as if your partner/the world is against you and I know how easy it is to snap and take things out on the people around you – but you are only hurting yourself when you do this. While you do get a very low level benefit out of this, the trade off is seriously not worth it. The high-level benefits you’ll get from responding in a strong and positive way will give you so much more.

So remember – people almost never respond to negative reinforcement, and by reacting in this way and staying open minded you will continually reinforce the behaviour you want to see in your partner and they willreciprocate.

So next time you feel like you’re going to react less than positively, take a breath and think: “WHAT ELSE COULD THIS MEAN?”

I promise, it will make a HUGE difference!

References & Resources

This article was inspired by The Ultimate Relationship Program by Tony Robbins. I have to say, hands down, this is the most effective Tony Robbins course I have ever done.

Having been to Date with Destiny, a lot of these topics were covered and it was truly life changing in so many ways – following up with this course a year or two later was incredible.

As I mentioned above, this is not just about your intimate relationship, this transforms ALL of your relationships – family, friends, workmates, strangers – everyone!

I really, really recommend it.

P.S. If you’re not in a relationship right now, this is the very best thing you can do for yourself. The Ultimate Relationship Program not only gives you the tools and techniques to work out exactly what you want in a mate and relationship but it also gives you the tools to attract this into your life. Honestly and seriously. Plus, and I promise you this, if you arm yourself with these strategies, tools and ways of thinking before you enter your next relationship you will be absolutely amazed at how amazing you can make that relationship – your partner-to-be is going to absolutely adore you!
