Comments by amazon customers about The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari: A Fable About Fulfilling Your Dreams & Reaching Your Destiny

Worth Your Time
An easy read but one you should take notes on as you read. I got some new ideas but it was mostly things I knew, but this book put them together in a meaningful way. It is one of very few books that I will read again.


A Short Story With Practical Information
I put off reading this book for years because the title and concept about a "monk" turned me off. But, having just finished reading it I can say it's a great little book. It's written in an entertaining story format that gives you practical nuggets of wisdom while keeping you entertain. Following the wisdom learned in here will lead to a greatly fulfilling life. I had already begun integrating many of the concepts from the book into my life before I read it (the ideas are not original, but the story brings them out in a different way) and found the book gave me a new perspective of looking at the same concepts, driving the wisdom deeper into my conscious mind. Highly recommended.

Very poorly written
There are some good ideas here but none are original. It is just a rehash of the stuff that has been known for centuries. The story is very lame and the author's writing style and use of the language is so poor that it makes this book unreadable.

It's my duty to thank and praise the author
It's my duty to thank and praise the author Robin Sharma for his wonderful work on this book which has changed the way in which I used to think, speak, live, and almost everything. I felt really great and relived of my internal stresses after reading this book. Instead of saying this to be a book, it would be opting to mention it as a guide to improve the thoughts of people. It's no surprise that this book has been sold more than one million copies worldwide and been translated in to more than 50 languages. The author's way of expressing the ideas that could make our lives better by means of stating the ideas by means of a story is really brilliant. This book gives a clear picture on attaining fulfilment even in small things and makes the reader to understand that the real happiness in life rests on smallest things. This book gives a chance to the reader to think about the purpose of their life and motivate them to work towards their goal. The author's message to the world is really an important one and I bet that this book would have definitely made the readers to change their attitude toward their life. The appreciable thing is the action summary present at every chapter`s end. This book is a must read for everyone in this world, the author has the capability to express the ideas in a lucid way. From the start of a day to its end every happening will have some impact on you and this book teaches you on what basis you should respond to those incidents and how you could tackle even the worst things to make your life better day by day. Once again I thank the author of this book Robin Sharma for his splendid ideas to improve the life of the people.

Fizzled out quick...
Started off very intruiging, kept wanting to know more ...got nothing. Very poor writing ability. I thought I was reading an elementry school kid's essay. Great ideas, should have pitched them to an actual writer who could have developed a story. Here's what you're in for: (quoted from page 90) "I still have much wisdom to share with you. Are you tired?" "Not in the least. I actually feel pretty pumped up. You are quite the motivator, Julian. Have you ever thought about an infomercial?" I asked mischeviosly. "I don't understand," he replied gently. Was the book written by a 10 year old, I pondered sincerely...
