Summary:
"Shetty ... distills the ... wisdom he learned as a
monk
into practical steps anyone can take
every
day
to live a less anxious, more meaningful life."--From publisher.
"Jay Shetty, social media superstar and host of the #1 podcast On
Purpose
, distills the timeless wisdom he learned as a
monk
into practical steps anyone can take
every
day
to live a less anxious, more meaningful life. 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 Hindu 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 --
