► “Why We Do What We Do” ► Presentation by Tony Robbins ►

Emotion is the Force of Life ► What Drives You? ► We have 6000 words for different emotions. ► People usually have a repeating 12 different dominate emotions they feel during a week. Half of those emotions don’t make you feel very good. ► Which emotions drive you to your own personal happiness

Emotions Continued ► This gives us basically 5 or 6 dominate emotions that make us happy on a given week. ► The quality of our lives is the quality of our emotions. ~ Robbins

Effective Leaders ► “These people have the ability to consistently move themselves and others to action because they understand the “invisible forces” that shape us.” ~Robbins

Two Master Lessons in Life ► 1. The Science of Achievement  How do you make something happen  How you make something invisible visible ► 2. The Art of Fulfillment  This is about your appreciation and contribution  You can only feel so much by yourself

When people fail what is the reason? ► Most people will claim that there is a lack of resources  Money  Technology  Time  Contacts  Experience  Management

The REAL reason why people fail ► “It is never resources why people fail it is resourcefulness” ► It is how people communicate with their emotions. ► If we get the right emotion we can get ourselves to do anything. ► We can get through to anybody with the right resourcefulness.
