Who you become makes the difference."

Laura Malina Seiler: Tony, I'm so pleased to be talking to you today. You are known worldwide for your transformative work with people. I was at "Unleash the Power Within" and it changed my life. Now you've been back to Germany after 20 years. How does that feel for you?

Tony Robbins: It's incredible to be back in Germany, in Cologne. The people here have so much passion and energy. It fits perfectly with my philosophy. I love helping people not only to achieve results, but also to find fulfillment. Because in my opinion, life is not just about being successful, but also about living happily and fulfilled. "What you get will never make you happy. Who you become will make you happy or unhappy make."

That's a strong statement. You once said that you have changed a lot in the last ten years and now speak much more from the heart. How did this transformation come about?

Tony Robbins: I think I've always been heart-led, but in the last 15 years I've become even more focused on the connection between success and fulfillment. When I started out, it was mainly about helping people achieve results. But at some point I realized that many were successful but not fulfilled. I wanted to help them experience both. It's a science of success and an art of fulfillment. When you combine the two, you create an extraordinary life.

Many people find it difficult to overcome their fears and realize their full potential. What advice would you give to someone who feels blocked by their fears?

"Success is measurable, fulfillment is an art"

Tony Robbins

Tony Robbins: Fear is the greatest enemy. But the key is to recognize that fear is only a Emotion is created through focus. "If you put your attention on what's missing or what you can't control, you will experience fear and frustration." The first step is to change your focus. Put it on what you can control and learn to be grateful for what you already have. Because fear and gratitude cannot exist at the same time.

Laura Malina Seiler: You have achieved so much in your life and helped so many people. What still drives you?

Tony Robbins: For me, serving others is a deep passion. "The secret of life is to find something bigger than yourself." Once you stop focusing on yourself and start focusing on how you can improve the lives of others, a completely different Type of motivation. I have had the privilege of donating over a billion meals and helping people from all walks of life. This gives me deep fulfillment.

Laura Malina Seiler: That's incredibly inspiring, Tony. What advice would you give to people who want to take the next step in their personal development?

Tony Robbins: The most important advice I can give is: "Take the first step, even if you are afraid." Success and fulfillment start with Overcome fears and commit yourself to life. Invest in yourself, not just in material success, but in your inner growth. Then you will find that what you give to the world will come back to you.
