“The secret of happiness is simple: find out what you truly love to do and then direct all of your energy toward doing it. Once you do this, abundance flows into your life and all your desires are filled with ease and grace.” – The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
I just finished this amazing book, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma. It’s about a very successful lawyer, who one day gets a stroke, which makes him question the meaning of life. He goes away for a while and tours the East, meeting some Sages along the way, who provide him with the wisdom on living a meaningful life.
If you are looking to live a life with more purpose, joy, peace and happiness, I highly recommend this read. It is really inspiring and is a really great guide to get you to a place of self-actualization whether you’re just beginning your journey or still learning. It focuses on the topics of mastering your mind, following your purpose, self-mastery and enlightenment through the body, mind, and soul, living with discipline, respecting your time, being selfless and embracing the present. Furthermore, it talks about the importance of solitude, physicality, live nourishment, abundant knowledge, personal reflection, early awakening, music, spoken word, congruent character and my favourite, simplicity!
Basically, our minds filter our world, and we can live in any world that we want. I’m going to write a post about filtering, aka the law of attraction, aka priming, aka prayer, aka the universe, aka whatever you want to call it. Yep.
