5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Life-Changer, May 3, 2006

This review is from: Discover Your Destiny with the Monk Who Sold His Ferrari: A Blueprint for Living Your Best Life (Hardcover)

I am already in the habit of reading self-improvement books. But when I finished up this one, I found myself naturally, effortlessly having made a decision to change my life. Such was the impact of mere reading this book. When you read this book you do not simply read this book but automatically undergo a very powerful process. Because the very act of reading this book takes you through a process of transformation and the beginning of a new life.

Having finished this book I decided to cultivate the habit of getting up early in the morning at 5 a.m. and I am still at it. I find that this simple habit of getting up at 5 a. m. and spending an holy hour is so powerful that it aligns you with natural rhythm. It gives me so much in terms of my inner growth which I was missing earlier. The book is packed with wonderful advice on life changing philosophy in a story form. I thank Lord for creating such individuals as the Author of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a fable, but it's also a lesson on life's values which will reach into many hearts, June 21, 2006

By 

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Discover Your Destiny: Big Ideas to Live Your Best Life (Paperback)

DISCOVER YOUR DESTINY: BIG IDEAS TO LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE comes from an international best-selling author and is a sequel to THE MONK WHO SOLD HIS FERRARI, so it already has a guaranteed audience of prior fans. Here the focus is on one Dar Sanderson, a 40-something HR manager who has it all in the job and home departments --but is deeply unhappy and wants an even better life. An encounter with a monk sends him on a six-month journey to reclaim life's values and spiritual promises. It's a fable, but it's also a lesson on life's values which will reach into many hearts.
