The Best Book I ever Read is.......

I just finished reading Jay Shetty's book "Think Like a Monk," and I have to say it's the best book I've ever read. The book completely altered the way I thought and behave in every manner. The fact that Jay Shetty was formerly a monk was one of the factors that drew me to this book. I've always been intrigued by the notion of leading a monastic lifestyle, but I never knew how to incorporate those ideals into my every day activities. Shetty does a great job of deconstructing the principles he discovered during his time as a monk and connecting them to the contemporary world. The book is structured into three sections, Let Go, Grow, and Give, and each section focuses on a different area of life. The Let Go section is all about letting go of unhelpful attitudes and habits that prevent us from leading fulfilling lives. Developing a growth mentality and creating wholesome habits are the topics covered in the Grow section. In the Give section, we discuss how to use our skills and abilities to benefit others and change the world. The fact that this book offers more than simply inspirational sayings and upbeat guidance is what I appreciate most about it. Readers can apply the lessons learned from Shetty's tips and activities in their own lives. He suggests that readers practise thankfulness by listing three things each day in the Let Go section, for instance. In the Grow section, he advises making small goals and acknowledging accomplishments along the way. Reading this book was like having a personal mentor walk me through my journey of self-discovery and personal progress. Shetty writes with clarity and simplicity, and his personal tales give the book a human touch. I had the impression that I was speaking with an experienced friend who actually cared about my wellbeing. All things considered, "Think Like a Monk" is a book that everyone who wishes to lead a more contented and meaningful life should read. This book will assist you in cultivating a monk-like mindset since it is chock-full of useful tips, motivational tales, and thought-provoking exercises. I'm very happy I found this book, and I'll definitely be returning to it frequently

Imagine you are as big as an elephant or even a whale. Describe your day.

  It’s a strange thing, to wake up and have your first conscious thought be about the space you occupy. This morning, it wasn't the alarm clock that roused me, but the feeling of my own shoulders pressing against the walls of my room. Not in a crushing, panicked way, but in a firm, undeniable way—like a great tree that has grown to fit the exact clearing it stands in. I am massive. The first change was the light. My window, which usually frames a neat square of Bangalore sky, now feels like a porthole. The sun, a fierce orange ball climbing over the distant tech parks, felt close enough to warm the deep, weathered teak of my skin. My skin… that’s the second thing. In this form, it’s thick, resilient, like the hide of an elephant or the slate-grey, rubbery skin of a whale. The same complexion I’ve always had—the color of strong, sweet coffee—but amplified, textured by a life of immense scale. It feels less like a covering and more like a landscape, with valleys and ridges that catch...

  Journal idea What to do with your empty note book As I look at my empty notebook, I feel a sense of excitement and possibility. It's a blank canvas waiting for me to fill it with my thoughts, ideas, and experiences. But at the same time, I feel a little intimidated. What if I don't have anything interesting to say?

Your Favourite Pancake topping is....

Journal idea Your favourite pancake topping is.. One of my favourite breakfast dishes is pancakes, and there's nothing better than a hot, fluffy stack of pancakes topped with maple syrup, which is also one of my favourite condiments. The sweetness and richness of maple syrup just elevates the flavour of pancakes to an entirely new level. Even as a little child, I have always loved maple syrup. On the weekends, my parents would take my siblings and I to a nearby pancake restaurant for breakfast, and I would always get the pancakes with maple syrup. I used to look forward to it every week, and I've continued the ritual into adulthood. The distinct flavour of maple syrup makes it stand out from other sweeteners. It's not very sweet like other syrups may be, but it's also not overly bland. The flavour is perfect, with just the proper amount of rich, buttery flavour and gentle sweetness. I enjoy watching the syrup slowly spread out over my pancakes as it adds flavour to ev...
