Read my review for the motivational self-help book “Happiness Is All We Want” by Indian author and life coach Ashutosh Mishra.
I read “Happiness Is All We Want” by Ashutosh Mishra for free in exchange for my honest, personal, and subjective review. I want to thank the author, Ashutosh Mishra, and the BookTasters for this great life-changing opportunity. And, if you like reading such books, I believe that you will find them at least useful.
The author tries to cover all the things in life that contribute to our happiness and well-being. He successfully organizes all this information into three parts: body, mind, and spirit. His writing style is articulate, conversational, direct, and easy to read.
Book review: Happiness Is All We Want
What I appreciated most, is his practical and realistic approach to such a vague subject like happiness. For this purpose, Ashutosh Mishra uses some understandable techniques (practical tips, wake-up stories, tech traps, smart well-being capsules, etc.) At the end of the book, there is a table with Smart Wellbeing Capsule activities and useful resources. The book gives specific guidelines. That’s why it manages to fulfill its primary goal as a self-help book, which is to inspire and motivate. I guess that the author’s studies in Mechanical Engineering and management and his corporate career as a senior banker with global banks were crucial for this result.
For example, I had read in the past many things about meditation. But, I had poorly practiced it. I always waited for the right moment in the right place with the right mood which actually rarely happened. But this book was different. I finished the specific chapter and I tried to meditate. I was motivated instantly. And, this is a big deal for a self-help book.
The same pragmatical notion is expressed in other chapters of the book about exercise and nutrition. Even in the difficult part of spirituality. Ashutosh Mishra shares his personal experiences as well as the stories of others in order to spotlight self-discipline and action. The book ends in the most insightful way. Our work for happiness and well-being should be systematic, well-organized, and conscious and it should start from us. Read my review on Goodreads
