A Fable About Fulfilling Your Dreams & Reaching Your Destiny

The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari

Cassandra Tang

I’ve also come to see that success on the outside means nothing unless you also have success within. There is a huge difference between well-being and being well-off.

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self-mastery. From struggle comes strength. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher.

Quick-fixes do not work. All lasting inner change requires time and effort. Persistence is the mother of personal change.

Never be reluctant to ask even the most basic of questions. Questions are the most effective method of eliciting knowledge.

While most of us know how to breathe to survive, we have never learned how to breathe to thrive.

... truly enlightened people never seek to be like others. Rather, they seek to be superior to their former selves. Don’t race against others. Race against yourself.

Good message, a little more mainstream and surface level than I'd like though.

Katelyn Caillouet

Enlightening read with life changing wisdom.

over the years, as self help has gained importance, this one has become a personal favourite of mine, so much so that I consider it my holy book. The author deftly combined the elements of fantasy, mysticism and reality. it has the capability to endear to any reader.

A great book about reaching your goals and spending your time wisely. A guide to how you should live your life. It's all general knowledge but it teaches you how to apply it daily. Recommended for those who don't know their purpose in life and how to reach your goals. It didn't really grab my attention as I read many books similar to it.

Andy Sporring

I love this bool so much and return to it over and over. If you haven't already read it, DO!

João Maia

Great book. So simple on its principles! A very easy and short read with couple of life checks.

Boring, with a dash of lengthy and useless added to it. It's a Must-Skip... Don't waste your time and money on Robin Sharma's books...

First of all, let's talk about the title, its misleading. While buying this book I have thought that there will be a monk driving his ferrari. Which disappointed me, a little. The proper title should have been the man who sold his ferrari and then became a monk. 

The novel is the grind mixture of fiction and sets of instructions to correct one's way of life. And it was all told in story like way, that made me go on or else I would've put the book down so early that julian mantle would still have his ferrari. It's a easy to read book. The structure of the story works well making it easy to remember what went before, or where to look for a particular part. The sumo wrestler, the big tower, garden and every simple and easy symbolisms were used. But my problems are that I don't feel enlightened after reading this, like many others. I mean I live with my brown parents, who tells me everyday to woke up earlier in the morning and meditate. So, I already know that. Besides that there was this idea that one has to trade their money for meaning in life, the way Julian sold his Ferrari and went to Himalayas to achieve enlightenment. And met a group of monks who lives in Himalayas, let's ignore the fact that there was an actual hidden village in the Himalayas where they lived for a thousand of years, hidden. Yes I'm not talking about that nor the fact that after having a heart attack our lawyer friend Juilan goes to INDIA to achieve enlightenment. Doesn't rich people have Therapists or something. (Wish we Indians have the actual enlightenment, western countries think we have)

Have you ever had mix sabzi, which is mostly made from all the left over sabzi from two or three days, and it tastes like garbage. Because there is Karela, Bhindi, Mithi all together, I hate that. This book is like that only. Author collected a variety of cliche, already known and very much talked ideas such as positive thinking, meditation, goal prioritization, focus, getting up early, more exercise and yes, oh yes, eating of live food aka becoming a vegetarian. So, what do you do when you have absolutely nothing new to say but you want to make it interesting so everybody buys your book? Bingo, you use a fable. Everybody loves one, right? 

Also, no questions were asked and all the proposed techniques and ideas were immediately adopted, by John. I mean if my fatty and super rich friend comes to my home wearing something like a Sage, I will bombard my friend with millions of questions. I sometime wondered if hypnotization was use during the 'Enlightenment'.
