Who Moved My Cheese
The Monk Who Sold His Ferari and many more…. The list will never end.
But Do these books actually make any difference to you and your personality.
For those who say ‘YES’ –
Does merely reading a book gives you enough wisdom and courage to bring a change in you.
You have been yourself for 10/20/30 years now and just a book written by some XYZ who neither knows you nor knows about your existence claims that he/she can change you. Don’t you find it ridiculous. I don’t know you, nor I know the kind of environment you were brought up in, but still I try to overrule your thoughts through my book.
Why do you change yourself after you read say ‘Who moved my cheese’ just because ‘Sniff’ and ‘Scurry’ succeeded in what they did. Why not friends instead of following the two we be different and unique and find our own ways to achieve our ‘Cheese’. It is Spencer’s experience that gave birth to this piece but who says this is applicable to all. I say “Don’t go by this notion. You will be befooled. Don’t blindly believe in what a book like this says coz if they by their experience can write such a piece, you can perhaps write better by listening to your hearts and minds, keep your eyes, ears and mind open and you will succeed in your life. You need no Spencer Johnson or Shiv Khera.
God has given all of us enough brain to utilise. Don’t be so lazy to use others’ experience and brains. Use YOURS..

What you are trying to tell is self help books are meaningless, I completely differ on that. When I was a teenage I had so many questions in life, some strange that what I will become one day and some specific like, how to get confidence.
What I learned from the book in months may have taken me years other wise. You may suggest its better to learn from your own experience than from others. Well, I woun't want to try and see whether I slip off a banana peel.
Books carry wisdom of sages and ages. You may have your own 'reservations', but I belive all men are not equally gifte to analyse things -- i am a buring example. These books are meaningless to those who themselves have not looked inside the tunnel of thought. Its more like if you dont like music, Mozart or Beethovan is crap to you.
Music is nothing to deaf. Similarly the value of these books can be proplerly understood by those who seek.
Even as Shiv Khera says 'Winners dont do different things, they do things differently.'
Why you raed mathematics? Physics, biology, compuetr science, psycholgy, philosophy...?
Why read books on all these subjects, because -- "You have been yourself for 10/20/30 years now and just a book written by some XYZ who neither knows you nor knows about your existence claims that he/she can change you. Don’t you find it ridiculous. I don’t know you, nor I know the kind of environment you were brought up in, but still I try to overrule your thoughts through my book. "
We need these books to understand human inspiration, guidence, and spiritualism...Those who deny these books simply are not the dwellers of these domains.
Pic was good. And I got whats your problem --- u r holding ur brain out, thats why its not working
