Once upon a time, fungus felt that his life is as miserable as it could get (a tragic tale of great expectation about the boards) and he wouldn’t be lying if he said that this book did a lot to make his world better. Easy to read, easier to digest, this wonder book by Shiv Khera deserved to be a best seller. The whole book is written in simple English, so that even a high schooler can get deep into the matter yet remain sane. (Well I had tried to read few other personality development books.)
Also, the book is divided into thoughtful sub topics and I felt that I could stop at certain places, implement the lesson in practice, wait for the results to show, and then continue with the next chapter. And believe me, the results did show fast enough for me to finish the book without much delay.
The greatest advantage of the book, I believe is that it could be read in many ways. Numerous examples are given, some real happenings, some fable like but all pinned to a value to be cherished. Firstly, these tales can be read to children by parents or can even be quoted as moral stories. If you want a thorough idea (sheeshh, I never think, if you were that desperate, you would ever read through this whole crap. ) go through the details carefully, stop to think about them and then proceed. If it’s spare time reading that you are after, then just browse through the examples and I am sure that it would do you good.
Pages are given to add our own notes and thoughts after every chapter. The author also advises, to underline the lines, which strikes us, (I almost had the whole book underlined thanx to the number of users it found in our home) along with comments at the margins. (Help! I can hardly make out the printed matter)
I would suggest buying the book rather than borrowing it (refer to the prev. para), as it would be always worth the money. Also it would be better if you could go through the book often, so as to retain the whole lot (bet it gets better with each brush up.)
Happy reading.
