Profound wisdom that will make you startlingly successful if you apply it
Do you feel that time is rushing by while you have accomplished only a fraction of what you are capable of? Is there an undercurrent of anxiety in your life that will not go away?
It is possible for you to reach orbits of achievement you never dreamed of and without any stress. It does not require hard work. It requires you to change your thinking. When you alter the dysfunctional models you hold, your experience of life improves immediately. Both success and tranquility can be yours.
In Modern Wisdom, Ancient Roots, unconventional and highly successful coach Dr. Srikumar Rao distills and condenses valuable life lessons, from ancient masters, sacred writings, and his own experience, into quick-to-read, easily digestible chapters.
Through Dr. Rao’s compelling narratives, you will learn how to:
• Achieve great success while remaining as serene as a Zen monk
• Feel radiantly alive every day and bursting with gratitude
• Bounce back from disaster so quickly that others didn’t even notice you were down
• Jettison dysfunctional mental models that prevent you from soaring
• Banish the incessant mental chatter that is sapping your energy
• Bring joy into your life and annihilate your fears
• Inspire others to reach heights they never dreamed possible
And this just scratches the surface. As a bonus, the book includes a self-assessment to help you implement the chapters’ lessons. If you apply the concepts in it, Modern Wisdom, Ancient Roots will make you prosper in all areas of your life.
