Wow! What an experience I have to share with you. I just returned from Vancouver where I attended the "Unleash the Power Within"
Conference with the amazing Tony Robbins. The entire experience was incredible. On day one I was able to overcome my fear and walk on fire! Fear is the only thing stopping us from moving forward and I was able to move over 2,000 degree Fahrenheit Hot Coals! And that was just Day One. The conference got more powerful each day after that for a full four days. Intense!
Tony Robbins himself is an incredible individual. I have devoted much of my "free" time to studying the psychology of Self Improvement and this weekend was worth every minute and dollar spent. Tony Robbins says "There is always room in your life for thinking bigger, pushing limits and imagining the impossible" and that's exactly where I am now, "Imagining the impossible" - I thought I had a pretty good outlook on life and didn't even realize that I could be holding myself back but now I am changing my beliefs that have been holding me back , so Watch Out! Here comes the New and Improved Greg Writer!
If you have any questions about my experience, I would love to share with you
Have an outstanding day!
Hi Greg,
I stumbled across your blog for a reason that I’ll explain in a second, but I wanted to comment on your Tony Robbins experience.
I agree that fear is the biggest limiter to achievement. For me, that realization came from sports, where one day I decided not to worry about what would happen if I ran out of energy before the race was over. It was in swimming, and ironically I was in the process of hanging up my goggles, so didn’t care if I lost the race. I ended up with my best time ever and learned that there is another ‘level’ on which I (or anyone) can compete. This is true in athletics, but more importantly in life. You make this point well in your account.
Now to how I found your blog. I’ve recently been looking for a way to bring all the parts of my life closer together – family, home, career, community – and I came across your Children’s Educational Network efforts. I have to commend you and your team for tackling what is one of the biggest threats to our children in the near term. I’m not sure people realize just how ‘plugged in’ our kids are now, and how networks will only become more integral to their daily lives in the future.
I’d like to get involved in some way – small or big. What do you think? I’m pretty sure you can see my email address on this post since you own the blog. If not, perhaps just post back and I’ll figure something out? I’m hesitant to put my personal info up on a public site.
Thanks,
Greg
Hello Fellow Firewalker,
We share a love of lifelong personal development, as well as firewalking, entrepreneurship and probably many more. I just came across your blog via Angel Money and thought I’d say hello.
