The 6 Human Needs That Drive Every Decision You Make with Codie Sanchez
Tony Robbins joins Codie Sanchez to explain the six human needs that drive every decision, and how to use them to create real behavioral change in others.
The gist
-
Everyone is driven by two of six needs: certainty, uncertainty, significance, connection, growth, or contribution. Knowing someone's top two tells you how to reach them.
-
Significance is overvalued thanks to social media. Robbins says connection and contribution produce more lasting satisfaction than chasing status.
-
Real change requires uncomfortable honesty, not soft language. Robbins says feedback lands when it connects to what the person actually values most.
-
When hiring or building a team, ask three things: can they do the job, will they sustain it, and are they the right fit culturally.
