Tony Robbins is a famous American self-help author and one of the top motivational speakers in the world. His bestselling books include Unlimited Power and my personal favorite Awaken the Giant Within.

Robbins began his career promoting seminars for motivational speaker Jim Rohn. He began working for Jim when he was 18 years old, and worked with him until he was 22. 

Later Robbins began hosting seminars which included teachings on neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) which he learned from NLP co-founder John Grinder. Eventually Robbins incorporated firewalking into his seminars; this is something he learned from Tolly Burkan. 

Robbins has used infomercials to promote his seminars and products.
