Early life

Robbins was born Anthony J. Mahavorick in North Hollywood, California, on February 29, 1960.

His surname was originally spelt Mohorovic and is of Croatian origin.

He later moved to Azusa, California, and attended Glendora High School

Robbins says that he lived in a small low-rent apartment in the Los Angeles area during his early twenties and had dreamed of living in a mansion for years.

In 1984, as his career began to take off, he bought the Del Mar Castle, designed by Richard Requa, for $1.7M.

He sold the property in 1988 for $3.25M.[14]
 

Career


Robbins began his career promoting seminars for Jim Rohn.

According to Robbins, Rohn taught him that "happiness and success in life are not the result of what we have, but rather of how we live.

What we do with the things we have makes the biggest difference in the quality of life."[15]

Later Robbins began his own work as a self-help coach. He taught neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and Ericksonian Hypnosis after training with NLP co-founder John Grinder.

In 1983, Robbins learned to firewalk from Tolly Burkan[16] and began to incorporate it into his seminars.[17][18]

Robbins promoted his services as a "peak performance coach" through his books and TV infomercials, gaining strong public recognition and lucrative sales.

He conducts a large range of seminars and live events around the world dedicated to achieving greatness in his participants by unleashing their personal power and helping them align their values with their individual life goals.[19]

In 1997, Robbins began the Leadership Academy seminar, in which participants learn to "[c]reate an identity for them self as someone who can help 'anyone', no matter what his/her challenge may be."[20]

Robbins is a featured speaker on the seminar circuit sponsored by Learning Annex.

Robbins appeared as a featured speaker at the 2007 Technology, Entertainment and Design (TED) conference.

Till 2008 his talk was among the top ten TED talks viewed online.[21]

Robbins is involved with the Robbins-Madanes Center for Strategic Intervention, which focuses on personal, family and organizational psychology, and claims to help people "find breakthrough strategies and solutions for overcoming the problems that confront us all."[22]


Seminars

Robbins also conducts seminars, including his four-day Unleash the Power Within (UPW) seminar, Mastery University and Business Mastery.[23][24][25]

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").[26]

Mastery University is promoted at the UPW seminar.[23][24]

Mastery University is composed of three seminars:

  • 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.
  • Wealth Mastery, espouses Robbins' ideas about what makes for a wealthy lifestyle.
  • 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.[27]

In 1997, Robbins initiated his Leadership Academy seminar,[28] in which he invites participants to learn the skills he uses, with the stated goal of the program to enable the participant to "[c]reate an identity for yourself as someone who can help 'anyone', no matter what his/her challenge may be".[20]

In 2009 Robbins created his Business Mastery program,[25] designed to provide business leaders with tools to manage and grow their businesses.

The seminar is conducted live by Robbins and features entrepreneur guest speakers. Past speakers have included Steve Wynn, CEO of Wynn Resorts,[29] Peter Guber (Chairman & CEO of Mandalay Entertainment Group)[30] and Tony Hsieh (CEO and Founder of Zappos.com).[31][32]
