About this deal

Jay Shetty is the narrator of Think Like a Monk and it truly feels like we are having a conversation in my living room. Shetty shares many personal stories of his three years spent training as a monk in an ashram in India. He shares the way a monk thinks (monk mind) and the ancient techniques still used today to have a more joyful, peaceful, purposeful life. I didn't think I wouldn’t be able to do any of this in my own life because I don’t have the years of experience Shetty has, but through Shetty’s masterful story-telling, he gives you everyday examples and “try this” exercises that you can do easily with practice. As Shetty says, “You don’t have to be a monk to think like a monk!!” Nobody sits us down and teaches us how to love. So we’re often thrown into relationships with nothing but romance movies and pop culture to help us muddle through. Until now. Think Like a Monk is a positive and beneficial self-help book, but in places it generalises towards being platitudinal and misleading.

Remember, saying whatever we want, whenever we want, however we want, is not freedom. Real freedom is not feeling the need to say these things.” This book is more about understanding our genuine power. how to overcome negative thoughts and habits, and access the calm and purpose that lies within all of us. I was most impressed with the range of quotes and anecdotes Shetty included in the book. As you would expect, there is a lot from Vedic sources, but he's also happy to tap into Jewish, Christian, and Muslim sources as well as some modern self-help guru stuff (how he can read so many of these sorts of books without going nutz is beyond me... so many of them seem to recook each others' leftovers).

While I found this book interesting, I can't say I read any advice that I haven't personally read or heard before. I think this is the sort of self-help book that would befit someone who is new to introspection or self-exploration more than someone who has already discussed or reflected on these topics at length (through faith, therapy, or other avenues) The handwritten charts in the book also disrupted the flow at times, in my opinion, and made the book feel less professional, detracting from the overall benefits of the messages being delivered.

Is it any wonder why I seek out books about serenity? Even if I can’t reach it, I’d like to carve out a meandering path to it. And when Jay Shetty leads the way, I take note.

Jay has made a fascinating journey, from classroom to ashram to finance and now entrepreneurship. I love how he’s brought his experience, teachings and love for conscious, purposeful living to millions of people around the world. This book is a clear and powerful guide to achieving a balanced life. Shetty was recognized on the National Geographic Chasing Genius Council 2017 [19] and the Asian Media Awards 2016 Best Blog.

[22] The LET GO section includes chapters on "Identity," Negativity," "Fear," and "Intention." The GROW part: "Purpose," "Routine," "The Mind," and "Ego." And the final GIVE part: "Gratitude," "Relationships," and "Service." If we try to be problem-solvers, then we become frustrated when people don’t take our brilliant advice. The desire to save others is ego-driven.” The very first aphorisms Shetty gives is if you want to learn something new, read an old book, I concur. That gives me a chance to recommend a bunch of old books that do way better than Shetty does. Though, I want to be kind to Shetty because he really does write a good book for some people who haven’t yet had a chance to read the old books.
