Review of The Maestro Monologue
[Following is a volunteer review of "The Maestro Monologue" by Rob White.]
A lot of people do not know their purpose in life. Every day, they wake up and go about their lives without realizing their full potential, and in some cases, they die without doing so. The Maestro Monologue by Rob White is a twenty-nine-chapter book about self-help that aims at helping you unlock your potential and acts as a guide to the Kingdom of WOW. The book passes across its message in four wonderfully written sections.
In the first section, White talks about understanding what's true about yourself. He emphasizes personal awareness, the power of always speaking positively, recognizing and utilizing the Ultimate Understanding (UU), and ways to discover and improve our unique qualities. He mentions the intruder in the second section, an assumptive identity interested in rendering your potential unproductive and increasing negative thoughts about yourself. The next section talks about the Maestro. He gives ways to accept yourself as the maestro of your affairs. Then the final section introduces the Kingdom of WOW, the final result of the application of these techniques, a way of being that gives you a high level of comfort and optimism.
This book is a classic. I'm not a fan of self-help books, but looking at life from the perspective of this book helped me learn a lot. Before I came across this book, I had some habits that I was battling, including the issue of self-discovery, but after reading this, I believe I am balanced now in that aspect. In the third section, where the maestro was being talked about, the dynamic trio was also mentioned. Seeing through that, I was able to link up some behaviors which I had initially termed conflicting in my life. The book helped me make sense of it, and for that, I am grateful. I also found the exercises included at the back of each chapter very relevant as they helped relate what was read and what was experienced. The vocabulary used in the book was simple. I appreciate that.
The only thing I disliked was the pace of the story. I found it slow, but I guess it was made like that so that all who read it would be able to understand. Also, I wished that the stories used as lessons within the chapters were longer, as I always looked forward to them. There were a few errors, but they didn't interfere with my reading. The work was professionally edited.
I rate The Maestro Monologue 4 out of 4 stars as it was wonderfully written. I recommend this book to all those interested in non-fiction works, those still in the process of self-discovery and self-development,
