by looking for it
-How to learn from everyone you
meet
-Why you are not your thoughts
-How to find your purpose
-Why kindness is crucial to
success
-And much more...
Shetty grew up in a family
where you could become one of three things—a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure.
His family was convinced he had chosen option three: instead of attending his
college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate
every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After
three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the
world if he left the monk’s path to share his experience and wisdom with
others. Heavily in debt, and with no recognizable skills on his résumé, he
moved back home in north London with his parents.
Shetty reconnected with old school
friends—many working for some of the world’s largest corporations—who were
experiencing tremendous stress, pressure, and unhappiness, and they invited
Shetty to coach them on well-being, purpose, and mindfulness. Since then Shetty
has become one of the world’s most popular thought leaders.
In this inspiring, empowering
book, Shetty draws on his time as a monk to show us how we can clear the
roadblocks to our potential and power. Combining ancient wisdom and his own
rich experiences in the ashram, Think Like a Monk reveals how to overcome
negative thoughts and habits, and access the calm and purpose that lie within
all of us. He transforms abstract lessons into advice and exercises we can all
apply to reduce stress, improve relationships, and give the gifts we find in
ourselves to the world. Shetty proves that everyone can—and should—think like a
monk.
