Robbins was born in Payson, Utah, and was raised in Springville, Utah. He is a great-great-grandson of George Reynolds. From 1971 to 1973, Robbins served as a LDS Church missionary in the Argentina North Mission. After his mission he married Jan Nielson and they are the parents of seven children.

Robbins received a bachelor's degree in Spanish from Utah State University and a master's degree in international management from the American Graduate School of International Management in Glendale, Arizona.

In 1983, Robbins was one of the founders of the Franklin Institute, which later became Franklin Quest and eventually Franklin Covey.
