My heart was pumping like never before walking into the huge Expo Hall, seeing neverending rolls of staff greeting with smiles, and throwing Hi-5's with so much energy was very intimidating.
We both chose to sit right at the last row of the entire hall of 10,000+ participants from 65 countries, subconsciously planning our escape in our minds.
We did not see Tony Robbins immediately, but spent a whole 1.5hours, jumping up and down, dancing, hugging strangers in our roll and massaging each other shoulders inbetween.
I was feeling a combination of weird excitement but a whole load of overwhelm.
And, when I was about to escape, Tony Robbins sprung onto the stage, and the whole hall roared with exhilaration, and he was truly larger than life.
He then sat us all down and asked us this Question:
"Why are You here?"
And it was at that very moment, I felt Tony Robbins was talking directly to me, even though I was all the way at the end of the hall.
And he then asked:
"Why did You make the decision to attend this event?"
"What are you committed to getting out of this weekend, not only to yourself but for those you care about?"
"WHY ARE YOU REALLY HERE?"
And everything slowed down, and I could for the first time hear my heart beat, and I wrote down the True Reason from within:
"Growth, awaken from Tony's Netflix Special & I know my life is not in the way I wish it to be, hence I want to learn how to grow, improve in areas I do not feel right, and do it with Shellz (my sister) =)"
Those words were my heart yearning for more, not just a mindless race for more, but a desire, and dream for a life I truly deserve, and I needed to change.
If You thought that changed my Life, You would not believe what I experienced on Day 2 of Unleash The Power Within, which changed my Life Forever by setting me on FIRE... iterally!
