Tony Robbins - The Next Level - September Edition

  • The key to keeping up with your busy schedule and finding more fulfillment in the process is finding ways to better manage your life rather than your schedule. In order to create a better plan for your life, you must have compelling reasons that will drive you to follow through with your goals. You must determine how each individual task will bring you closer to what you really want in life—loving relationships, vibrant health, peace of mind, or financial freedom.  


    Tony initially created the RPM (Rapid Planning Method) system to help himself manage all of his growing priorities—family, work, health, contribution—in the beginning of his career, when he realized that the level of achievement he was experiencing in his professional life was costing him fulfillment in his personal life. By prompting him to answer questions like “What do I really want, and why do I want it?” or “What are my needs and how can I accomplish them?” Tony’s RPM system continues to help him get the results he wants while increasing his level of fulfillment.
