Finally I finished reading the book and will recommend it to all. It's a must read. Though the author, Robin S. Sharma, has repeated many words many a times which makes reading a little boring, also after few pages the book starts getting a little dull but slowly as you will proceed you will start enjoying it. His repetition at times is intentional so that we would remember the main points, it's a kind of a revision of the older chapters. The way he has used a simple fable to memorise the points is commendable. It is full of messages for making your life beautiful. Books of such ilk should be read slowly, absorbing every line and taking the message that the book is giving only then will you get good results. Remember such books are not for enjoyment, they are meant for special purpose; self improvement.
Some of the quotes from the book are here;
When you control your thoughts, you control your mind. When you control your mind, you control your life. And once you reach a stage of being in total control of your life you become a master of your destiny.
Having the courage to say no to small things in life gives you the power to say yes to big things.
Laughter opens your heart and soothes your soul. No one should ever take life so seriously that they forget to laugh at themselves.
Act as if failure is impossible and your success will be assured.
The quality of your life will come to the quality of your contribution.
Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
Read it if you still have not, you will feel the positive vibes.
