I like learning from other people’s wisdom.That’s a quicker way to get where I want to go.Life is too short to have a trial and error for everything.This is where Bhanu Arora’s book 10 Essentials to the Blueprint of Happiness is perfect.
Style of writing: It’s a book written in a style like The Go Giver.There are life stories which are engaging while not being preachy.This is followed by observations of the author and then take away points at the end of each chapter.Perfect format.The book’s introduction is in the same style, where the author’s intention behind writing the book is revealed.
He also gives us a quick walk-through of how to use the book to find happiness inside.
Basic theme of the book 10 Essentials to the Blueprint of Happiness
