The Speech that Teared Tony Robbins

To many of you who have known me for my Passion and my Life's Dedication to Impact Lives through the Training, Speaking and Consultancy work that i do through my team at Thriving Talents, you would also know that i have been an admirer of Tony Robbins' work for years now.

He has been that Mentor figure whom i have had the great opportunities to learn from and with, for over 6 years now, and have been personally trained by him on 2 occassions and dare i say, i would go back for more!

He is one of the world's Most Successful Personal Development Coach, who had radically changed my life, with this Vision & Outlook for the World - Especially in running his Billion Dollar group of businesses, all dedicated to Enrich and Inspire the Lives of the People whom they impact!

For someone like Tony Robbins who had previously trained people like Oprah Winfrey, President Bill Clinton, X-Men Wolverine's Hugh Jackman, Chinese Pop Icon Wang Leehom and many others, it is then hard to imagine how this 'Billion Dollars' Coach would indeed Cry for anything - He does appear as a 'Ball of Positivity!'

Yet, in his recent documentary on Netflix, Tony Robbins revealed the 1st speech that was given to him by his teacher in school, that made him Cry and ultimately Changed his Life!

I researched and googled my way through the websites online and eventually i found his speech.

Please do have a read of it below and reflect it on your own perspectives.

Wishing You All a Great 2020 New Year with the Unlimited and Boundless 'Will to Win!'

The Will To Win Speech

By Vince Lombardi

Winning is not a sometime thing; it’s an all the time thing. You don’t win

once in a while; you don’t do things right once in a while; you do them

right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.

There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and

that’s first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay,

and I don’t ever want to finish second again. There is a second place bowl

game, but it is a game for losers played by losers. It is and always has

been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win,

and to win.

Every time a football player goes to ply his trade he’s got to play from the

ground up – from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of

him has to play. Some guys play with their heads. That’s O.K. You’ve got to

be smart to be number one in any business. But more importantly, you’ve got

to play with your heart, with every fiber of your body. If you’re lucky

enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he’s never going

to come off the field second.

Running a football team is no different than running any other kind of

organization – an army, a political party or a business. The principles are

the same. The object is to win – to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds

hard or cruel. I don’t think it is.

It is a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive

games draw the most competitive men. That’s why they are there – to compete.

To know the rules and objectives when they get in the game. The object is to

win fairly, squarely, by the rules – but to win.

And in truth, I’ve never known a man worth his salt who in the long run,

deep down in his heart, didn’t appreciate the grind, the discipline. There

is something in good men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh

reality of head to head combat.

I don’t say these things because I believe in the “brute” nature of man or

that men must be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe

in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour, the

greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has

worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle – victorious.

Wishing All of You a Victorious 2020 Ahead!
