Hello Readers...

Ever wanted to read a book which could teach you how to get anything you want....then stay with me till the end of the post as this might be the book you want. But before beginning with the actual review I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Anna Poulimas from Beacon Publishing Group for providing a copy of this book for the review.

Let's quickly take a look at  the synopsis and start with the actual review:

"

Ever since Star Wars first appeared on the silver screen, people have fantasized about being able to use the Force. But anyone -- not just Jedi's -- can tap into its capabilities by using the Law of Attraction to harness the incredible power of the universe. Author Joshua P.Warren guides you through the lessons of legendary Jedi Masters to reveal how Jedi science encompasses the Law of Attraction and how can you draw on the universe's energy to achieve your dreams.

Do you want to truly create wealth  and peace of mind of your life?

Complete with enlightening quotes from the series, Use the Force will help you master important Jedi teachings through the Law of Attraction and make every wish a reality.


"
The reason why I picked this book was....1) It was a non-fiction book...2) It was based on Law of Attraction...3) It has given references from Star Wars series. I always prefer reading non-fiction books over fiction as those books are more meaningful and relatable as compared to the fiction books. Also this book is highlighting the concept of Law of Attraction and that too giving reference to Star Wars series. So if you are a person who loves Star Wars then it is quite natural that you will be tempt to pick this book up and start reading it....the same thing happen with me.

Also this book is highlighting the concept of Law of Attraction and how to use it to get anything you want just by using our inner Force to complete any activity or to get anything you want. I have to say that I am not a big follower of the concept of Law Of Attraction and I personally feel that many people are using this concept in a wrong way and the earlier books which I have read often portray that concept in  a wrong way. With regards to this book....there are few things which I personally don't agree upon. But yes there are few important aspects in this book which I loved and I would personally like to implement those in my own life. So if you are looking to read this book...then have an open mind and let the concepts sink in....that way you could enjoy this book in a better way.

Also Joshua P.Warren has written this book in a extremely simple fashion that would let you understand this book in a better way. The author has also kept a slow and steady pace while bringing new concepts so that while reading you don't feel  that a new concept is brought in early or is rushed upon and allows the content of the previous chapter to sink in before introduction of new concpets. Kudos to Joshua P.Warren for that.

And the best part of the book....the Star Wars analogies. Who doesn't love Star Wars??...I loved the way Joshua P.Warren has explain the slightly difficult concepts by giving reference to Star Wars....that way readers can easily relate those concepts with their own lives. Those analogies explain not only the concepts into the book but also helps the person to understand the Star Wars series in a better way.

So to sum up, if you are a person who believes in Law of Attraction principle or would like to know about that then you might like this book. Also if you are person who loves Star Wars series which I am sure majority of you will be....then you can have a look at this book. For me personally, I don't agree with all the things mention in the book but yes I did enjoy those references and analogies. To rate this book, I would give this book 4 stars out of 5. In case you are looking to buy this book, here are links to Amazon from where you can get the book.

Appreciative Inquiry - Neena Verma Review

Book Cover Source: Goodreads
Hello Readers...

We often try to improve ourselves so as to be a better person not only in our professional world but also in our personal life. This applies to me as well. For this I was looking for books which could help me to improve my personality and while searching out for books on the internet, I stumbled upon the concept of Appreciative Inquiry. I was lucky enough to get a book on the same topic via goodreads written by Dr. Neena Verma. So here is the review of Appreciative Inquiry: Practitioner's Guide For Generative Change and Development written by Dr. Neena Verma.

First I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the author of the book Dr. Neena Verma for sending in the book via goodreads. So lets begin with the review.

This book is about the art of Appreciative Inquiry. For people who just like me who were unaware of this concept here is a brief  description of AI as explained by Appreciative Inquiry Commons:

"Appreciative Inquiry is the cooperative search for the best in people, their organisations and the entire world around them. It involves systematic discovery of what gives a system 'life; when it is most effective and capable in economic, ecological, and human terms. AI involves the art and practice of asking questions that strengthen a system's capacity to heighten positive potential. It mobilizes inquiry through crafting an 'unconditional positive questions' often involving hundreds or sometimes thousands of people."

As mentioned above, the art of AI can be used in organisations as well as in our personal lives. This art signifies having a positive approach to each and every problems rather than taking a negative outlook. This book will surely steer you to have a more positive radical approach in life. This book highlights the very key point which I feel is the most important for succeeding in the life, the quality of Team Work. This book is a guide for anyone who wants to explore this novel concept and who wants to imbibe the philosophy of AI. This book caters to the organisational aspects of the AI as well which will surely help many organisations to grow and appreciate their employees. However, on what level this theory can work in the organisational framework, of that I am not sure as I am still pursuing my studies and have very little to none exposure to the organisational scenario. So if you are a person who has used this method in your organisation, do let me know in the comment section as to how your experience was with this method. Will love to read them.

One thing that slightly bothered me, here I might be nick picking but still will like to mention that the print use for typing is pretty dark. So when you are reading one page, the print on the back side of page also seems to be visible. This thing did bother me so I thought should mentioned it. It would have been much better if the printer could have paid a little more attention to this aspect.

This book will definitely generate a curiosity if you are unaware of this concept. However, like I said earlier, I am not a right person to validate those theories. But to me this concepts seems not that difficult to incorporate into the organisational structure. To rate this book, I will give it 4 stars out of 5. Here are links to the Amazon from where you can get the book.

Reconstructing The Past To Create A Remarkable Future - Tony Fahkry Review



Hello Readers....

Before starting I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the author "Tony Fahkry" for providing a copy of the book for the review.

This book is about the self realization and self empowerment to create a future which we all desire. The title rightly describes the concept of the entire book of making peace with the past and using our past as a leverage to create a compelling future. The book is divided into two parts where the first part speaks of how to make peace with the past and settle the issues without holding any backlog ot grudge while the second part deals on how to capitalize on our past to make a remarkable or a future which we desire.

I really like the content of the book and the way the book is focused. Many people mention that we should lay dirt on to our past and should focus on the future if you want to achieve success but this book rightly highlights that we should not simply lay dirt on to our past but should rather use the incidences from the past as a leverage to create a future which we rightly dream of. This is definitely the selling point of this book.

However, this book mentions the concepts which needs to be implemented to make peace with the past and achieve a remarkable future. Sometimes understanding the concept is not sufficient for the readers to implement them in their life especially for the younger audience. So if the author could have use a story line to explain the implementation process or set of different reactions to a same situation it could be easier for the younger audience to imbibe those concepts. Don't get me wrong here, the concept are very well explained by the author Tony, its just my opinion that a use of story line could have made the book more easy for implementation and a chance to connect more with the book.

To sum up, its a good read and it will definitely help, making you more empowered who knows how to deal with the past and create a new and compelling future. I would give this book 3.5 stars out of 5 stars. Just in case you are interested and want to buy this book you can use the below links to buy the book from amazon.
