Here begins my book journey for 2024. I'm not an avid reader of fiction books, but this one took me on a whole other journey. I highly recommend it to those seeking a transformative journey through life; it's not just spiritual but applicable in #business too. Special thanks to Mahfooz Azeez ✪ for the thoughtful gift and insistence that I dive into this enriching read. Here are few rules I have noted down: Rule #19: Fret not where the road will take you. Instead concentrate on the first step. That is the hardest part and that is what you are responsible for. Once you take that step let everything do what it naturally does and the rest will follow. Don’t go with the flow. Be the flow. Rule #2: The path to the Truth is a labour of the heart, not of the head. Make your heart your primary guide! Not your mind. Meet, challenge and ultimately prevail over your nafs (false ego; self, psyche, soul) with your heart. Knowing your false ego will lead you to the knowledge of God. Rule #9: East, west, south, or north makes little difference. No matter what your destination, just be sure to make every journey a journey within. If you travel within, you’ll travel the whole wide world and beyond. What rules can you connect with? Elif Shafak 🙏🏻 #book #habits #40rulesoflove

Done ✅reading Book 📖 #2 for 2024. My main Lessons taken from the book: *Your mountain is the block between you and the life you want to live. Facing it is also the only path to your freedom and becoming.THERE IS NOTHING HOLDING you back in life more than yourself. *Self-sabotage is not a way we hurt ourselves; it’s a way we try to protect ourselves. *Most people do not actually change their lives until not changing becomes the less comfortable option. *People who are constantly “busy” are running from themselves. Nobody is “busy” unless they want to be busy. *If you want to master your life, you have to learn to organize your feelings. *What isn’t right for you will never remain in your life. The truth is that when something is right for you, it brings you clarity, and when something is wrong for you, it brings you confusion. *Nobody is looking at you the way you think they are. Nobody is thinking about you the way you wish they would. They are looking at themselves. *The truth is that you have nobody to prove wrong but yourself. *To be a truly powerful person, you must be willing to be disliked. *Assume that everyone, and everything, has something to teach you. #TheMountainIsYou #BriannaWiest #PersonalDevelopment #SelfImprovement

I always dreamed of being an author since I was a child, and it's surprising that some of my friends don't even know that I am one! My book, "Free to Fly: Manifest the Life of Your Dreams," was released with a mix of pride and heartache, as not everyone in my life supported the spiritual teachings I shared. Despite feeling shame for not meeting their expectations, three years later, I am living a fulfilling and unconventional, house-free life as a gypsy. Would you like to check out my book? It's about how saying yes to our natural gifts and being true to ourselves can lead to abundance and fulfillment. Click the link in the comments to get your copy!

When my son teased me about picking up yet another self-help book, it got me thinking. Reading is meant to be a gateway to relaxation, an escape into different worlds, ideas, and perspectives. Sometimes, though, the lure of self-help or motivational books can become a bit of an addiction, keeping us constantly plugged into “improving” ourselves. But isn’t reading also about simply unwinding, exploring new realms, and finding solace in stories? It’s about letting the mind wander freely, soaking up the essence of fiction, history, or poetry without feeling the need to constantly optimize ourselves. Finding that balance between the motivational reads and the ones that simply help us unwind is key. So, here’s to a bookshelf filled not just with self-improvement but also with stories that allow us to relax, dream, and find joy in the simple act of reading. 🌟📖✨ #ToseefReads #ReadingBalance #BookLovers #EscapeInBooks #RelaxAndRead #StorytellingMagic

I'm a real book worm, what about you? Do you have a ten book high TBR pile next to your bed? Today I want you to think about the book that has had the most profound effect on your life. I know it might be hard to choose just one as there are so many amazing books out there, so you can nominate up to 3 if you wish, but 1 will do. 😊 Also think about what it was that really resonated with you. Was it moving? Did it change your perception of life in general or something very specific? I'd really like to know. For me there have been several but the one that particularly springs to mind right now is 'The Power of Now' by Eckhardt Tolle. An amazing book written almost in the archaic style of a bible, this book taught me how to step out of anxious what if thoughts into the current moment. This was life changing for me and taught me that I had the power to change my experience of life for the better. Immediately I made that shift things changed. The dread I lived with constantly was left in my previous position, like I had shed a coat and left it behind. Amazing book. It requires concentration as the text is dense and full of meaning, so cannot be consumed quickly, but it was worth it for me.

Ever notice how, in the midst of our busiest days, we reach for the same strategies, the same routines, and even the same books? It's comforting to have that familiar source of wisdom that always seems to resonate. But sometimes, what we truly need isn’t what’s familiar; it’s a fresh perspective, a new voice, or a challenge to our usual way of thinking. That’s why I believe in the power of diverse reads. The book that lifts your spirits doesn’t always have to be the one you know by heart—it might be the one that challenges you to grow in unexpected ways. What book do you turn to for inspiration? Whether it’s a motivational read, a biography, or a spiritual guide, share your go-to book that lifts your spirits. And be sure to come back and check out some of the new reads others share in the comments! #InspiringReads #BookRecommendations #Motivation

When your pastor gives you a book 📚 to read, you read it. This was a blessing. Key takeaway: We all get to choose how we will respond to the painful 😓 realities of living in a broken world 🌎

#bookreview #blogger Book Name: Racket Boy – Where is my country? Author: Philip George Genre: Memoir (An emotional and motivational journey)! In general, every memoir has its own way of penning down the thoughts, happenings, and experiences. This book has a unique way of making us feel the way George felt at that time. The book begins with the foreword, where a rough overview of George is explained. It describes how his career journey started in the UK, then as a psychiatrist, and how he landed himself as a lawyer in the Court of England. The first chapter begins with sharing his place of birth (Kerala), his parents and siblings, and his experience in school. One takeaway from this chapter is: 1. We can learn more from the outside world. 2. We must completely eradicate discrimination and differences. It also describes his love and interest in being a badminton player. As a typical Indian parent, his father is against his interests. But he continuously pursued his interest. When everything went well, he was excluded from the team because of favouritism, and the team that went to play without him lost their match. As we turn pages, we get to know the embarrassing moment of George, where he took the coin on the floor that belonged to one of his classmates (a girl). As she complained, it created a big fuss, and he got caught. That was the moment he realized that, though we were about to prove something, we should choose the right way instead of acting in haste. The book also covers his journey to different countries and traveling on the ship. In the ship, he learned the difference between how people are divided based on their status and money. It also describes his love for Italy and his dog, who travelled along with him. In each chapter, we get to know more about him and his struggles, which push him forward. The book must be read with patience since it covers more information. Other than that, it is a good read with mixed emotions. #priyusai_blog_post #racketboys #bookreview #bookstagram #booklover #books #bookstagrammer #bookworm #book #booknerd #bookish #bookrecommendations #reading #bookaddict #bibliophile #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #books
