Anna Sabino is an entrepreneur and she wrote her debut work, Your Creative Career for budding entrepreneurs in mind who want to pursue a creative path.

BOOK REVIEW: Treasure Trove of Zodiacs by Tanuj Lalchandani

Posted March 24, 2018 by @amanhimself in Books, Non-Fiction / 0 Comments

I am among those who are unable to find any consistent logic behind astrology. Yet, an individual who has mastered the art of it can build correct predictions about someone’s characteristic traits on the basis of their zodiac signs. Treasure Trove of Zodiacs is the debut work of Tanuj Lalchandani. Written in-depth about each zodiac sign this book does an excellent job of explaining things to a novice. The book talks about the personality traits of a person, their behavior, a little light on what kind of careers, in general, she or he might like, suggestions on relationships and how to overcome negative vibes such that one can make peace with himself. The artwork used as illustrations is amazing. I […]

BOOK REVIEW: Maps are Lines We Draw by Allison Coffelt

Maps are Lines We Draw is Allison Coffelt’s travel memoir. The book that is actually a novella, deciphers the culture of Haiti. I picked this book because of the cover and the title mainly. They both compliment each other and is a good attraction. Little did I know of Allison’s writing style at that time.

BOOK REVIEW: Succeed The Happionaire Way by Yogesh Chabria

Posted February 18, 2018 by @amanhimself in Books, Non-Fiction / 0 Comments

Some say happiness is a state of mind. Many believe in that. I do too. It indeed is a state of mind but we all wonder how to achieve that state of mind, don’t we? The happiness of an individual is reflected by aspects that are prior to us mortals. These aspects fall under few different criteria and a common ground between them is where the state of happiness lies. It is not something that is achievable because there is nothing to achieve. It is a state of mind that takes some practice and wilful mindfulness on daily basis. Thus, this is the message of Yogesh Chabria, a world-renowned leader in the field of human potential, new book: Succeed The […]

BOOK REVIEW: Fragments by Heraclitus

BOOK REVIEW: Fragments by Heraclitus

Posted February 8, 2018 by @amanhimself in Book Reviews, Books / 2 Comments

Written around twenty-five hundred years ago, Heraclitus declared that energy is the essence of the matter, that everything becomes energy in flux, in relativity. Fragments if a form of collected writings by the Greek, since the title and the context of the book both suggest that.
