Charlie Sheen is the new Tony Robbins.
The actor’s crazed talk is peppered with bizarre phrases that may pass the motivational muster.
For instance, he has made “winning” his main buzzword, so much so that the Howard Stern Show repeatedly plays a tape of him saying it.
EX CALLS OFF ‘DEAL’ WITH SHEEN IN CUSTODY BATTLE
Today on his hot Twitter account he wrote, “Face it folks, you just feel better when you say it. WINNING.”
His Twitter bio describes him, in part, as “unemployed winner.”
“I’m bi-winning,” he said recently. “I win here, I win there.”
“The only thing I’m addicted to right now is winning,” he said.
But there’s more to his wide-ranging philosophical meandering than simply “winning.”
“Ready for my next fastball, world?” he wrote on Twitter today. “PLAN BETTER Applies to everything where an excuse now sits. Try it. U won’t be wrong. Ever.”
There’s enough in his multitude of recent interviews to keep a motivational poster factory busy.
–“Can’t is the cancer of happen.”
–“Dying is for amateurs.”
–“My success rate is 100 percent. Do the math.”
–” I will destroy you in the air. I will deploy my ordinance to the ground.”
So far, people are eating it up.
His interviews have led to high TV ratings, surging Web traffic and a record number of followers in the shortest time on Twitter.
Sheen set a new Guinness World Record for being the fastest person to attract 1 million followers, the record-keeping group confirmed today.
It only took 25 hours and 17 minutes between March 1 and 2 for Sheen to hit the mark.
Sheen set up his account on the micro-blogging website Tuesday afternoon, apparently at the urging of avid tweeter and CNN host Piers Morgan, and amassed 60,000 fans in a matter of minutes before he even began to tweet.
He reached a million followers at a rate of tens of thousands per hour.
It’s not the first time Sheen has explored the power of words. GQ reported today that the wrote a book of poetry in the early 1990s titled “A Peace of My Mind.” A sample:
“Yet masking truth and hiding pain,
Will surely take it’s toll,
Will he unto others, or to himself,
Remain a thoughtless soul?”
