BOOK REVIEW 11 - WHO WILL CRY WHEN YOU DIE?

Book - Who will cry when you die? 

Author - Robin Sharma

Robin Sharma is a Canadian lawyer, leadership expert and a writer. He has written several self help books on personality development and leadership. Every book of him, has promisingly changed rather enlightened so many lives across the globe. 

About the book - 

In this book, the author has gifted the readers with 101 life’s lessons. Every lesson is dropped down so neatly in a single page. The language is so simple yet crisp and it is purely meant for every person and every age. At some lessons, the author quotes examples from his own life and relates to the situation. 

My take – 

I am not exactly the person who looks out for motivational/self development books as I am already super motivated in the first place. I had this kindle edition of the book, for months together and never even had an idea to open it. It happened today. Not that I was so overconfident that I was already a positive person, I just wanted to see what else do I lack, and what other qualities can be value added to my living. 

I completed this book in 2 hours and it just touched my heart. Here are some of the life’s lessons which I felt is too important for anyone – 

 Everyone who enters your life has a lesson to teach and a story to tell. 
 The golden thread of a meaningful life is self-discipline.
 Every time you fail to do the right thing, you fuel the habit of doing the wrong thing. 
 Every minute you spend focusing on your problems, you take away from finding solutions.
 Learn to say NO gracefully.
 To live life to your fullest, start taking more risks doing the things you fear.

All of us know everything which has been told, but how many of us in our real lives do actually implement it?

This is such a feel good book and gives a deep sense of satisfaction. I confess this is an amazing book I have ever read on self-help and am really hunting for the other books by the same author. 

Free tip – Gift this book to next gen children and students. You will get the contentment of nurturing their life. Life is to live to the fullest, after all! Isn’t it?? 

Rating – A straight ***** 5/5

BOOK REVIEW 5: MOST AND MORE

 Author - MAHATRIA RA
 Genre - Motivation

Well this is my debut in reviewing a non fictional book. “Most and more” is highly motivational and the author shares the wisdom he has gained through his lifetime research. He guides us through the path of success and happiness through simple techniques. 

The book starts with an incident from where the author’s life starts. Every chapter is so neatly drafted through various incidents of his life and what he learnt from them and what he wants us to learn is conveyed as a simple yet effective message at the end of the chapters. 
The book enlightens us in various aspects of life. It promises to inspire us through many thought provoking quotes like – 

• Metaphorically, relationships are like bank accounts – emotional accounts. Some accounts are over deposited. Some are over drawn.
• How can you expect today’s result by yesterday, when the very process is going to begin only tomorrow? 
• In life, most people reach where they reach because someone who cares for them helps them to see further.
• In faith, even what seems wrong, will eventually turn right.
• If you walk the path everyone walks, you will only reach where everyone reaches.
• The question is not “Out of everything which is the best” but “How to get the best out of everything”

Once when I was done with the book, I experienced a new me. 

This very line from the book, 

“The mind of the man is the man. Change the mind and you have changed the man”

  had worked out on me too. I assure when you pick this book in your hand you will probably put it down at its 242nd page only.

Suffering from Breakthroughs, Hardships, battling between mind and heart??? 

“Most and More” is a medicine! 

This book is purely dedicated to every soul who is striving to lift himself / herself and in turn, lift the world, is the ideal gift to those whom you care for.
