Tony Robbins, a giant in personal development, often speaks about the power of belief in transforming one's life.

I've been a Tony fan for a decade.

But where did this foundational concept originate?

Tony's Concept -

Belief in oneself, in a higher purpose, or in a future vision, can move mountains.

Christian Roots -

This mirrors the Christian principle of faith.

Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

Here's the kicker -

Christianity forms the bedrock of modern self-improvement.

(Some self-development leaders are aware of this, some aren't).

(Tony Robbins is a God believing Christian).

Faith Over Fear -

Just as Jesus walked on water through faith, Robbins teaches stepping out of one's comfort zone, trusting in a vision greater than current reality.

Transformation Through Belief -

Paul's transformation from Saul to Paul, a persecutor to an apostle, is a narrative of radical change through belief, akin to self-help's promise of transformation.

Service over Self -

Christian teachings on humility and service to others echo in self-help principles of giving value and serving your audience or community first.

In Essence -

When we peel back the layers of modern self improvement, we find ancient wisdom from Christianity - faith, transformation, and service - repackaged for a secular audience.

The deeper one gets into Christianity, the clearer this becomes.

Keep this in the back of your mind as you crack open your next self-help bestseller.
