While I did not learn anything new as such, the experiences were a reminder that maintaining certain positive aspects and virtues in life can be immensely helpful. Some of them like being honest and kind, or taking up responsibility for one's actions are something which I already practise. The ideas of not letting dire situations affect your outward behaviour (too hard, really) or stop whining about negativity or looking beyond the apparent things before judging someone (better just not to judge anyone) are one of the few things which I am trying to maintain in my life.

There was pretty much to learn from the book. I learnt that in our everyday lives we get to meet teachers who are never recognised but impact on our lives positively in one way or another.

No wonder the mysteries of life titillated a wise man to quote,"THERE IS AN AFFAIR IN THE LIFE OF MEN,WHICH,TAKEN AT THE FLOOD,LEADS UNTO FORTUNE AND OMITTED ALL THE VOYAGES OF THEIR LIFE IS BOUND IN MISERIES" rob white although having got wealth,power and you mention the rest,he still felt empty probably cos he had power without accountability with only spirituality can give, he didn't feel complete until he changed the way he saw the universe,his surprise was how he got spiritual help from commoners,after reading inspiritional book alot has changed in my life.
I TOTALLY MADE A GOOD CHOICE READING THIS BOOK. (HG)

Many lessons stood out for me from this book. The most glaring of all the lesson is that determination in life leads to success.

This made me think more about how the little things in life and the people we meet can have really big impacts on our behaviour

I felt this book offered lessons such as learning to be true to yourself, and also giving others a second chance.

In the book I found many new stories reinforcing valuable
beliefs and thought patterns I already have...seeing them once again further print them on my subconscious.
