Default The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari - Robin Sharma

The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari - Robin Sharma

Are you someone who is too busy working with computer but don't have time to back up???
If you are someone who is looking to "making a lot of life" rather than "making a lot of money"....then this book is for you.

Well, it is definitely not a business book....but a life book. There is something for all of us in there - depending on what & how much we want to take it and practice it. At least, it is sure to set some of us thinking....if not really acting :)

Talks about some ancient wisdoms and living simply (not simply living!!!) Condensed & narrated, matching today's reality. Read few pages, mull over them, then proceed; if need be, read the pages again.

Cheers
Jenz!

I also read that book jenz, and I liked it.It reminded me of one of my favorite quotes,"when you go through life, take time to smell the flowers"!

Thanks Shanvy, for the links, Robin Sharma sure is a good writer. Whenever I get hold of such books, I do at times, out of curiosity, when I just want to relax, or kids suggest reading,I feel like they resemble chapters from the Bhagavat Gita, but with a variety suited to the modern day .There is nothing in this whole world, that we can learn about life, that is not in our Gita, Thirukkural or Bhagavatham to name a few.In my opinion, this is exactly like 'an old medicine in a new bottle'!But each individual is unique and can absorb whatever appeals to him or her.
