Critic reviews

"Robbins' Giant Steps is the ultimate game plan for life. It's an emotionally interactive primer for personal and professional success." (Peter Guber, former Chairman and CEO, Sony Pictures Entertainment)

I understand the other Reviews...

Would you listen to Giant Steps again? Why?

Yes so I can write down the action plans

Any additional comments?

The other reviews are pretty much correct. My rating is different because the reason I got this book is because the reviewer who said "should have been included with Awaken the Giant Within" I needed a quick "do it" book to read on my 5 hour drive (after all of these years I can now read @ 2 speed) to entrepreneur training and specifically needed something about action. I knew I wanted Tony Robbins and with the limited selection on Audible, that review pretty much led me to first read Awaken, then Giant Steps, and now Power. The first two are definitely in that order (overview to action). The titles are too cheap for my credits so I purchased them outright. Price is just fine to buy all. My problem is procrastination. I read 2 to 5 books every month (since 2005) and still procrastinate. I found my problem... trying to act before changing my beliefs... bottom line, because I read the books below in the following order I finally realized why I was allowing procrastination to lead. Switching the order and re-reading would have taught me the lesson faster. I recommend the order below.

Pursuit - Devos
Magic of Thinking Big
21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership - Maxwell(anytime)
Today Matters (3)
15 Laws of Growth (3)
The Closer's Survival Guide - Cardone
Pitch Anything
The Oz Principle (5)
The 5 Minute Rule - Mel Robbins (2, 8, 11)
The Four Agreements - Ruiz (1, 4, 7, 10)
The Alchemist
Awaken the Giant Within You - Tony (6)
Giant Steps (9)

Obviously there are way more books, but I only have 5 minutes to write this review so that I can 5, 4, 3, 2,1 ... GO ACT NOW... after learning that to get to action I must first change my agreements/beliefs and associate Pain and Pleasure appropriately so that I can grow, lead, and improve my health (while the health reference is from Maxwell's Today Matters I just stumbled on a summary of Unleash the Power within and this might be an additional guide to the health piece), mind, and finances so I can go and help others do the same!! ;)

Hope this helps!

I love how the steps are practical and well laid out

The book is short and simple just how it needs to be it is a must-read

Great book but has annoying sound effects.

Tony's performance was awesome; however, the sound effects between changes in topic were quite annoying to me. Otherwise, I would have rated this book 5 stars overall!

I want to go all the way

This is a classic, and my goal is to go all the way. ...and it's a long way to go

Good, Once Again : )

Although the music in between chapter nuggets and thoughts was a bit cheesy, I didn’t mind it. I loved listening to this while out walking or running. I continue to find Robbins inspiring, pushing me not to settle. These are sort of like little daily devotionals that you can chew on a little each day. I find myself thinking about the concepts presented here often as I go about my daily life. Truly good stuff!

Giant Steps

All of it

Any additional comments?

I will recommend everyone to listen to Tony Robbins

Anthony Robbins Very Interesting Life Perspectives

I've read all of His books and every book he has written is definitely premium quality. I have to say, it is nice to hear Him narrate this classic book, very cool. I would highly recommend this audio book, and definitely reading the actual book is even better yet, since it takes so much more time to read, which is a benefit since you have much more time to become inspired. And to reflect and adjust your thinking, which definitely takes time and concentration. ..Rich with several interesting perspectives about living a productive life, which ultimately showcases inspiration like a true professional. Personally I really liked the mid '90s thru '04 era lifestyle captured within the books and original skateboard/ snowboard videos, etc. All because of how it makes me remember how grand American life still was, during that mid/ late '90s era! Before this borderline communist, deathly corrupt govn/ corporate monopoly land/ overly political correctness bullsh** current era, with cloned style/ the opposite of style/ with 'a million fat mothers whining' era, we all now have to put up with, what the f*** doesn't anyone have keen logic/ diverse natural talents/ know how to mind their own business anymore! Love to reminisce how amazing society once was, pre-internet era, with all those great individuals that were true Americans still, with original concepts and authentic styles! God Bless America! We The People Need God's Blessings More Than Ever Before!

It's Anthony Robbins

What more can be said, Anthony Robbins provides a fantastic for leading a fulfilling life and taking back yourself.

Life changing!

Loved it. This book has concrete steps and strategies to overcome bad emotional states.
The anecdotes are interesting and helpful as reminders of how to change one's behavior. This book has helped me to recognize and label the behaviors in myself that needed to change. Both bad ones I want to eliminate, and postive ones that I want to do more--or start to do.

inspiring

I have made it a practice to start each day with Tony Robbins. I find him absolutely inspirational and his books give me the drive that I find necessary to grow everyday.
