Who Will cry when you die (Robin Sharma)
Its been a long time since I wrote the book review but I promised once again to myself to continue the good habit and hopefully I will surely do !
Courtesy : The book "Who Will Cry When You Die" By Robin Sharma
You would not be disappointed and surely you would not for its a story woven across the experience of the people. people who are famous and one who have found the truth of living the life in its truest form...
I always shun life skill books because they tend to drag a little bit and pushes you out of your mind !
But then Robin Sharma's "Who will Cry When you Die" is aptly written and grabs your attention .you would raise your eyebrows when you read it .
The finer moments of life skills are so beautifully woven in every sentence and the fact that you could actually practice what he preaches adds a topping to this recipe for life.
Surely Author has done a phenomenal job of giving reference to all the wisdom he teaches , correlating the same to his life as well...
I sat on my chair gaping at simple things the author explains and wondered , "yes" this is what I need to do to make my life better and make people around me happy and joyful.
There are tips and tricks to define goals for your life , to define a legacy which can live much after your death , there are life skills which acts as catalyst to think beyond just the material world and
then there are just neat quotes/wisdom from the famous and more famous personalities like Mother Teresa , Armstrong and many more
So when you close the book , you are there , thinking, feeling happy about discovering something new in your life .
More importantly , trying to adopt and change the gear in your life , so you become a better person , you become a better personality and you become a good human being
who would be remembered for not the way you lived but the way you help your life to grow with the people . To me that's the greatest Achievement !!!
Co-incidently I read an interview of Yuvaraj Singh, the famous Indian Cricketer , which Makes my belief even stronger - "To me its not money and fame which is important ,but to me
what is more important is Happiness and tranquility and I would work for the betterment of cancer patients in the future" "Surely Money Counts but not so much".
Time and again wisdom like these and many more stands out as jewel in the crown and so perhaps you would be the next in line to wear it and be proud ! Will you ?
