Why We Do What We Do

A TED Talk. Life coach and motivational speaker, Tony Robbins, explains why he’s not interested in motivating people at all, but rather helping them understand why they do what they do and the “invisible forces” behind their actions. Arguing that our emotions are the real seat of our actions, Robbins helps us get in touch with the real sources of our motivation. “Explore your web — the needs, the beliefs, the emotions that are controlling you … so there’s more of you to give … and so you can appreciate what’s driving other people. It’s the only way our world’s going to change.”
