Awesome Tony Robbins fails flat in face of woman’s solipsism

Tony Robbins is a first class act. He is the kind of super-charged, benevolent hero who wished that everybody bettered their lives.

In this video, we see Tony Robbins trying to make sense of a woman who indulges in the victimhood play of the metoo movement. She takes offense in Tony’s advice which was not to use the sexual harassment tag to make yourself “significant” [At the end she’s acknowledging that she’s misunderstood him.] Tony tries to reason with the woman. I am playing the full video here, background amateur phone shot  (I don’t know for how long this video is going to be up, so you better hurry). A short version, which is less than 1:45 minutes long, viewed 1.9 million times, has been carefully cut with text/titles to show indifference, even hostility (?) on the part of Tony.

Note that Tony is not debating the movement, nor is he in any way dismissing the claims those women (might) have. On the contrary, he gives them legitimacy and respect. He says that, however, “you don’t grow” if you use use anger. “Anger is not empowerment. Don’t “use the the metoo movement to try to get significance by making somebody else wrong. And there’s nothing wrong with that. It just won’t make you happy.”

Tony Robbins is making a stage demonstration.

Robbins instructs the woman to put out her fist and starts walking against her. Why ?

As she is pushing back, he tries to make her realize something: **that more pushback is NOT helping her**.

Did she understand it ?

Quote of the day: “You are either a victim of circumstance or you’re the creator of circumstances. There are no other options.” -Unknown

Robbins: “You’re telling me that the more I push, the more I am going to be safe ?” **obviously rhetoric**

A retard would understand the meaning of the fist-against-hand movement across the floor, except there are some people who evidently refuse it. Empowerment for her comes from her position, which she is not willing to change.

Robbins goes on and uses another analogy, that of technology. “Did that help you get less stress ? How many have less stress than before ? There are patterns that make you angry. There are patterns that make you sad. Choose your patterns wisely. Otherwise you’ll let the culture chose it for you. You wanna use things in a way that doesn’t addict you to your problems. If you get in a pattern of victimization, who is it going to hurt ?”**words of wisdom from a wise man**

“I’m not going to be inauthentic and say I’m sorry about something I’m not sorry about.”
Tony Robbins has empowered me.

However,

There are people who don’t want to better themselves.

There are some who operate out of the victim mentality.

There are people who do not want to be helped.

Do not be one of them.
