Tony explains what his book "You Were Born Invincible" is all about. Tony gives us a unique incite into how to banish limiting beliefs within 60 seconds..... yes 60 seconds.

Tony also talks deeply about taking responsibility for your personal situation and the importance of empowering people to acknowledge "radical responsibility" and the cultural differences that have an affect on our belief systems. Tony's methods are based on how these belief systems albeit historical still have a profound effect on people today.

Tony explains how films and television often perpetuate these beliefs however he is not saying there is some kind of conspiracy.

Tony also talks about what he believes is the secret to success for each person breaking this down into two main areas.

Tony provided a very thought provoking interview, please comment. I'm particularly interested if anyone disagrees with Tony's philosophy.
