Do you know what’s the best thing about books?

Apart from sharing immense knowledge with us, books have the power to dig deeper into us and help us meet an original version of ourselves. There are some things that we either resist about ourselves or we never know who we truly are.

There could be childhood traumas, horrible past experiences or struggles in your life that hold you back and make you something that you are not.

Especially, in this fast faced generation where everyone is trying to win the race, we have lost our true charm, in fact, depression and anxiety are too common.

Today, I am going to share with you 3 books that changed my perspective and my life even before I had completed them.

  1. The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari: My first nonfiction book, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari proved to be a life changing book for me. I remember I picked this book during the first covid lockdown. My college studies were on hold, I couldn’t share my problems with my friends, I had no one to talk to, I didn’t have my personal space (Indian families don’t really have separate rooms for each member), and all of these feelings were jumping on my head. I became irritated, frustrated and used to get angry at small things. I was never like that but my words became harsh for others to take. I was losing people.
