About this ebook

An internationally bestselling fable about a spiritual journey, littered with powerful life lessons that teach us how to abandon consumerism in order to embrace destiny, live life to the full and discover joy.

This inspiring tale is based on the author's own search for life's true purpose, providing a step-by-step approach to living with greater courage, balance, abundance and joy.
It tells the story of Julian Mantle, a lawyer forced to confront the spiritual crisis of his out-of-balance life: following a heart attack, he decides to sell all his beloved possesions and trek to India. On a life-changing odyssey to an ancient culture, he meets Himalayan gurus who offer powerful, wise and practical lessons that teach us to:

- Develop joyful thoughts
- Follow our life's mission
- Cultivate self-discipline and act courageously
- Value time as our most important commodity
- Nourish our relationships
- Live fully, one day at a time

did not feel real. story being told by a colleague in a lunch break which was weird? and explains such in depth feelings when the colleague was not a personal friend but a work friend and was in a rush. was disappointed and I hope Mr Sharma helps not just the big corporations but the ones who nobody can reach too.

I read this book looking for a relaxing read but what i found changed the way I look at a lot of things. I now try to think more mindfully, live in the present more and have started a journal as recommended with clear relationship, personal, physical, financial and career goals. There are many great practical tools to improve your life in small ways described in this book that build up over time. Whilst the story is a little far fetched the delivery and enthusiasm felt when reading it made it hard to put down. Read it and start making positive changes to your world!

Its good in bits and pieces with a few useful tips but overall seems very superficial and artificial. Fails to resonate or connect with the reader.
