This hard life moved him when he was 17 to leave his home and worked as a handyman during his high school time to pay his fees and support his siblings. He never attended any college as he worked as a janitor to defend himself after running away from home.
While conversing with his landlord on someday, Tony Robbins asked him how he became successful. The Landlord explained to him that he gained the life ideas through a seminar he attended by Rohn, one of the famous motivational speakers.
