The best advice he ever got was also from Jim Rohn.
Interviewer: What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever gotten?
God, that’s so much, but I think one of the most important ones was early in my life one of my mentors named Jim Rohn said, “Tony, all you have to focus on your life is find a way to add more value than anybody else does and you’ll never have to worry about anything. Be the person that does more for others and life will just be anything you want out of it,” really is what it is, so. And he also said the way to do that is everyday work harder on yourself than anything else. ‘Cause if you become more intelligent, more valuable, more skilled you can add more value to other people.
Now that's what I call inspiring. Whether you're looking to improve your personal life or your business, Robbins' advice on adding more value than anyone else applies to everyone, including those in the world of B2B sales consulting.
