We can agree to disagree, or at least I hope we can.

Over the years Robbins may have said all kinds unobjectionable things. Some people may assign undue importance to what they hear on TV, or what they read in books for that matter. Maybe some people first heard from Robbins that they need to carefully evaluate everything they learn from those sources. For myself, I’ve long had a personal BS detector that required no advice from Robbins.

Robbins amassed an immense personal fortune by selling himself as a guru, when in fact he’s a cut rate BS artist who taught himself how to run around on stage and use an imposing physical presence to mesmerize his audience. He’s a fraud.

Thanks for the open-minded response. We do disagree, nothing wrong with that.

Everyone has a BS detector. Children have it. But it's not the BS that I'm talking about. It's the techniques they use to program your mind.

We could spend quite a while discussing it, but it is probably easier just to say that FOR ME, being able to counter those mental programming attempts has been very helpful.

If you aren't aware of those techniques, they do affect you, you just don't realize it. Unless, that is, you don't watch TV.
