Astrid Stawiarz\/GettyTony Robbins speaks at the launch party of his new book \"MONEY Master the Game.\" <\/p>\n
Over the past 30 years, millions of people have seen a Tony Robbins presentation, listened to one of his audio lessons, or read one of his books. <\/p>\n
In his career as a life coach, Robbins has worked with a wide range of powerful people, including President Bill Clinton,Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, and hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones. <\/p>\n
We spoke with him recently and asked him what books he recommends to anyone, regardless of where they are in their career. <\/p>\n
Scroll down to see five of his favorites. <\/p>\n
Viktor Frankl was an Austrian neuroscientist and psychiatrist who survived three years in concentration camps during the Holocaust. In 1959, he published his meditation on what separated those who were able to find the meaning that helped them survive from those who gave up. \"Man's Search for Meaning\" has gone on to sell over 12 million copies around the world. <\/p>\n
\"I don't give a damn how rich you are financially or how abundant you are with your family or love, we all experience extreme stress in our life at some point,\" Robbins says.\"It's the ultimate equalizer. If it's not you, it will be someone in your family, and so the ability to find meaning in the most difficult times, I think, is one of the most important skills of life, and there's probably not a greater example than that book.\" <\/p>\n
The British author James Allen predates Napoleon Hill (\"Think and Grow Rich\") and Dale Carnegie (\"How to Win Friends and Influence People\") as a pioneer of the self-help movement. His most influential work is \"As a Man Thinketh,\" published in 1908. <\/p>\n
Robbins says he's read it more than a dozen times and often gives the book as a gift because it's concise, easy to read, and profound. \"It's the whole concept of understanding that your thoughts really, truly shape everything in your life that you feel and experience,\" he says. <\/p>\n
Ray Kurzweil is Google's director of engineering, a vocal futurist and transhumanist, and one of Robbin's good friends. His book, \"The Singularity Is Near,\" details his theory that humanity will reach a point of \"technological singularity\" by the year 2045, a point from which machine intelligence progresses so rapidly that it exceeds humanity's ability to fully comprehend it. <\/p>\n
