Shetty writes, "I grew up in a family where you could become one of three things: a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. My family was convinced I had chosen option three. Instead of attending my college graduation ceremony, I headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for 4-8 hours and devote my life to helping others." After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk's path to share his experience and wisdom with others. Heavily in debt, and with no recognizable skills on his resume, he moved back home to north London with his parents. Shetty reconnected with old school friends--many working for some of the world's largest corporations--who were experiencing tremendous stress, pressure, and unhappiness, and they invited Shetty to coach them on wellbeing, purpose, and mindfulness. Since then, Shetty has become one of the world's most popular influencers. In 2017, he was named in the Forbes magazine 30-under-30 for being a game-changer in the world of media. In 2018, he had the #1 video on Facebook with over 360 million views. His social media following totals over 32 million, he has produced over 400 viral videos which have amassed more than 5 billion views, and his podcast, On Purpose , is consistently ranked the world's #1 Health and Wellness podcast. In this inspiring, empowering book, Shetty draws on his time as a monk in the Vedic tradition to show us how we can clear the roadblocks to our potential and power. Drawing on ancient wisdom and his own rich experiences in the ashram, Think Like a Monk reveals how to overcome negative thoughts and habits to access the calm and purpose that lie within all of us. The lessons monks learn are profound but often abstract. Shetty transforms them into advice and exercises we can all apply to reduce stress, sharpen focus, improve relationships, identify our hidden abilities, increase self-discipline, and give the gifts we find in ourselves to the world. Shetty proves that everyone can--and should--think like a monk.Product IdentifiersPublisherSimon & SchusterISBN-101982134488ISBN-139781982134488eBay Product ID (ePID)6038610920Product Key FeaturesBook TitleThink like a Monk : Train Your Mind for Peace and Purpose Every DayAuthorJay ShettyFormatHardcoverLanguageEnglishTopicMindfulness & Meditation, Monasticism, Personal Growth / Happiness, Personal Growth / General, Buddhism / Rituals & Practice, Hinduism / General, GeneralPublication Year2020GenreSelf-Help, Psychology, Body, Mind & Spirit, ReligionNumber of Pages352 PagesDimensionsItem Length9inItem Height1.2inItem Width6inItem Weight17.6 OzAdditional Product FeaturesReviews"Jay Shetty shows you step by step how to build your power, shifting your focus from self-image to self-esteem.
