Greeting from Puduherry.

Yours is a purposeful contribution to the aspiring youth : this is my impression after going through a few chapters - obviously scripts of your talks. I am sure they would be interesting to the readers - apart from the audience - because of their lucid style and appropriate examples.

This much in haste.

Manoj Das,

Puduchery, India.

Thank you so much for giving me a chance to be your student /trainee/follower.

I could read the book only yesterday, Once I started reading the book I was completely taken over by it so much so I started watching the cricket only after finishing my reading of your book missing batting by Indian side.

After reading I really feel that I have lost lot of time (65 years) in understanding meaning of life.

Nevertheless it is never too late in life to upgrade your skills and understanding.

At the same time I have lot of questions to ask mostly from myself and a few clarifications from my Guru (your good self).

Thanks for sending a copy of the book. I have found it immensely interesting, and motivating (even to a person who has arrived at the last chapter of his own book!).

We all face adversities in life, and very few have the gumption and far sight to conquer them without getting into the pitfalls of despair and hopelessness. Let us admit, very few can turn the road blocks in life into opportunities, -- which is, in the ultimate analysis, the key to the winning formula. An approach of positivity, belief in one's potential,reframing the accumulations of subconscious lack of faith in one's ability, striving for excellence in whatever one ventures into, being able to give importance to the 'other' point of view, being a good listener as the first step to be a good communicator, the importance of compassion etc, -- you have succintly touched upon the essentials of the winning formula.You have spiced up the narrative with anecdotal examples, sometimes touching on autobiographical tales of the tribulations and successes of your own experiences,--- thereby accentuating the appeal factor of the book to readers.They will find similarities in their own life's experiences in these anecdotes, and get inspiration.
