About this deal

Salt is so humble that when something goes wrong, it takes the blame, and when everything goes right, it doesn’t take credit.” The 75 Percent Rule for Success Jay Shetty Learned as a Monk". Inc. magazine. 4 September 2020 . Retrieved 14 September 2020. Shetty was recognized on the National Geographic Chasing Genius Council 2017 [19] and the Asian Media Awards 2016 Best Blog. [20] Shetty was the recipient of awards at the 2016 ITV Asian Media Awards [21] and the 2018 Streamy Awards. [22] Yes. Take your time, read it slowly, perhaps a chapter a day, and you will definitely find the book interesting and enriching.

Clearing away distractions, thus to be able to focus on what matters most – finding meaning in life. The cleansing process includes external influences for example negativity and internal obstacles for example fear. This is the question which I tried to find an answer to throughout my teenage years. I opted for becoming a better human being than a better student. The author is answering a similar question in this book. This is my favorite line from this book Location has energy; time has memory.If you do something at the same time every day, it becomes easier and natural.If you do something in the same space every day, it becomes easier and natural. (c) Dharma, like many Sanskrit terms, can’t be defined by a single English word, though to say something is “your calling” comes close. My definition of dharma is an effort to make it practical to our lives today. I see dharma as the combination of varna and seva. Think of varna (also a word with complex meanings) as passion and skills. Seva is understanding the world’s needs and selflessly serving others. When your natural talents and passions (your varna) connect with what the universe needs (seva) and become your purpose, you are living in your dharma. While I found this book interesting, I can't say I read any advice that I haven't personally read or heard before. I think this is the sort of self-help book that would befit someone who is new to introspection or self-exploration more than someone who has already discussed or reflected on these topics at length (through faith, therapy, or other avenues) The handwritten charts in the book also disrupted the flow at times, in my opinion, and made the book feel less professional, detracting from the overall benefits of the messages being delivered.

I was most impressed with the range of quotes and anecdotes Shetty included in the book. As you would expect, there is a lot from Vedic sources, but he's also happy to tap into Jewish, Christian, and Muslim sources as well as some modern self-help guru stuff (how he can read so many of these sorts of books without going nutz is beyond me... so many of them seem to recook each others' leftovers). Unconsciously, we’re all method acting to some degree. We have personas we play online, at work, with friends, and at home. These different personas have their benefits. They enable us to make the money that pays our bills, they help us function in a workplace where we don’t always feel comfortable, they let us maintain relationships with people we don’t really like but need to interact with. But often our identity has so many layers that we lose sight of the real us, if we ever knew who or what that was in the first place. We bring our work role home with us, and we take the role we play with our friends into our romantic life, without any conscious control or intention. However successfully we play our roles, we end up feeling dissatisfied, depressed, unworthy, and unhappy. The “I” and “me,” small and vulnerable to begin with, get distorted. (c)

The Vedic Personality included at the end of the book is an unexpected bonus. Further, most of the topics are very relevant to a modern individual.

after reading many nonfiction books, I realized most books talk about the same stuff. ( sadly that is true with this book) Jay R.Shetty grāmata “ Domā Kā Mūks” uz mana rakstāmgalda neatvērta nostāvēja vairāk kā gadu … pēdējā brīdī ar “labi, šo ar!” ieliku to sava radošā atvaļinājuma ceļa somā. At the end of every chapter, there are tips or exercises to work on. That's the only helpful stuff.

In 2022, Shetty joined meditation product company Calm as its "Chief Purpose Officer". [31] Books [ edit ] Jay speaks about life purpose, mental health, relationships, wellbeing, and has appeared on many famous shows like The Ellen DeGeneres Show and A Little Late with Lilly Singh. He is also a podcast host, former monk, and purpose coach.You have previously read many other books about happiness, wellbeing, peace, purpose and spirituality. Meltzer, Marisa. "A Former Monk, Now a Viral Life Coach: "I Want People to Discover Their Purpose" ". WSJ . Retrieved 2 August 2023.
