Get the Edge

Get the Edge is a practical guide to personal performance from motivational speaker Anthony Robbins. It argues that success depends less on natural talent than on how a person manages their state of mind, their habits and their everyday choices. Robbins offers tools for setting clear goals, breaking old patterns and building the focus and confidence needed to act on them. Throughout, he mixes examples from his own coaching with exercises meant to help readers apply the ideas to work, relationships and money. The tone is energetic and direct, aimed at anyone who wants a stronger push toward the results they are after.
