5.0 out of 5 starsThought provoking essays
Reviewed in Australia on 30 June 2019
Thought provoking, " mature" , written in a perspective language sometimes yet beautifully done.

Definitely recommended for a lot of "soul" searching.

The title should give the hint. This is hard work and at times contradictory which makes it hard to keep engaged. Ended up choosing some of the essays of interest.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of great advice – but ends up being quite superficial with 4-page long chapters on average.
Reviewed in Australia on 2 December 2021
Verified Purchase
I'm not sure whether this book was a mistake, or one of the best books I've read. On the one hand, it does not have a main idea or contention that's backed up by several chapters of detailed discussion, and instead feels like a collection of short blog-posts regurgitating basic self-help advice (that I've mostly heard of) – which, in my opinion, does not constitute a proper book. However, I feel as though the author is nudging my life towards a positive direction each time I turn its pages, and that I tend to be happier and more mindful on the days where I read this book.

I suppose I've just listed the (perhaps obvious) pros and cons of a book titled with "101 Essays..." My main doubt is that this book, like many ordinary self-help books, have given me doses of spiritual highs without leaving considerable lasting impacts on my life. I guess I'll have to wait and see. Just after finishing though, my impression is that this book packs a large quantity of self-help advice, but perhaps wasn't enough overall for me to justify its price.

This book will challenge you in the most positive way. You will need to reread this numerous times if you don’t understand parts of it and this is the whole point to change the way you think!
Buy both the ebook and audiobook. The narration of the audio will keep you engaged. The ebook/book is your reference book.
JUST BUY IT and stop procrastinating.

1.0 out of 5 stars Trivial and Plain
Reviewed in Australia on 2 January 2022
Verified Purchase
By essays, they are actually list of points with very little in-depth thinking. And the book is composed of 101 such lists, mostly rephrasing and repeating the trivial.

Nothing revolutionary or will open your mind. It may make you feel like you have some clarity while you are reading it but I doubt it will "change the way you think".

Some real enlightening beautiful moments but at times repetitive and convoluted. Unecessarily wordy, when simpler could have made the point.

1.0 out of 5 stars Over rated.

Extremely disappointed on how a book full of lists and more lists is called a book of essays. I am just finding it so hard to continue. The quality of paper is bad. Unless you are new to the world of self development, this book is really very very basic.

If you're stuck in a rut, if you're confused, perhaps frustrated with how you're life is heading, then it could all come down to how you think. The well-written essays in this excellent read provides guidance on this and other little gems. Wel worth the purchase!
