Quotations by Anthony Robbins

The secret of success is making your vocation your vacation. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

You should breathe in this ratio: inhale one count, hold four counts, exhale two counts. If you inhaled for four seconds, you would hold for sixteen and exhale for eight. Stop and take ten deep breaths, in the above ratio, at least three times a day. Start in the abdomen, take a deep breath through your nose while counting to seven (or pick a larger or smaller number based upon your ability). Hold your breath for a count four times that of your inhalation, or twenty-eight. Then exhale slowly through your mouth for a count two times the length of your inhalation, or fourteen. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

One essential component of healthy overall breathing is daily aerobic exercise. Running is fine, though a little stressful. Swimming is excellent. But one of the best all-weather aerobic exercise is trampolining, which is easily accessible and puts minimal stress on your body. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

Eat water-rich foods, meaning fresh fruits or vegetables, or their juices freshly squeezed. Drink distilled water. Eat only one condensed food (not rich in water) at a meal. Don't eat starchy carbohydrates and protein at the same meal. Don't have those meat and potatoes together. After eating a properly combined meal, one must wait at least three and a half hours before ingesting any other foods. Also, it is important to note that the drinking of fluids at meals dilutes the digestive juices and slows the digestive process. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

You must always eat fruit on an empty stomach. An excellent habit to develop is to eat no food other than fruit after 9:00 P.M. The best kind of fruit is fresh fruit or freshly squeezed fruit juice. You don't want to drink juice right out of a can or glass container. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

Try eliminating milk and limiting your intake of other dairy products for thirty days and judge by the results you feel in your body. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

Used unconsciously and automatically, "but" can be one of the most destructive words in our language. Simply substitute the word "and" instead. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

Most high-level negotiations make use of effective anchoring processes. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

One simple but invaluable technique is to listen carefully to the words people use. People tend to use over and over key words that denote the values at the top of their hierarchy. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

You must learn to handle financial pressure. Take 10 percent of all you earn up front and give it away. After you give away 10 percent of your income, take another 10 percent to reduce your debts and a third 10 percent to build up capital to invest. You need to live on 70 percent of what you have. [1989] - Anthony Robbins

The key to any relationship is that you have to give first and then keep giving. [1989] - Anthony Robbins
