Brief review: This sequel to '7 habits of highly effective people' talks about finding your true voice to reach greatness from effectiveness. While its a good read, it misses the power which the earlier book had. It's a long read too.

Brief review: A must read. I cherish the writings of Osho. Each time I read him, I become richer in my thoughts. He was (is) arguably the most profound thinker in the world. In my entire life I have not found anyone else than Osho who could connect the dots so very well about everything. A long read (over 15-20 hours) but can’t be missed. He shakes your thinking, beliefs and acts. He is the fiercest speaker you will ever encounter. A must read. Every word is gold.

Brief review: A superb book by Sadhguru. Through the book, he distills his own experiences which are enlightening and fascinating. Everything we do is for a simple reason; to find joy, but life became complicated for most people. His message is to look within and make necessary changes. He terms it 'Inner Engineering'. One of most compelling statements I read in the book was, 'If the seed constantly tries to save itself, a new life is impossible. The seed goes through the tremendous struggle of losing what it believes is its identity, in order to grow into a many branched leafy tree, abundant in fruit and flower'. A good read for a life of well being. Simple ideas to align the mind and the body to achieve powerful results.
