Reflections is my third book by author, this book is much more different than the other books.
It's a short collection of quotes based on different topics.
It's divided into four different parts like - first, is one appreciating others , second is , all about Words and language we used, third it's about , grooming and fourth is about general quotes.
The quotes noted here in this book are refreshing and meaningful one, they will let you know how it's important that we appreciate each other. Sad part is today we ignore appreciating others. Author has explained through his quotes meaningfully and beautifully why appreciating is significant, and somewhere I strongly agree with him.
Words and language from an important aspect of one's life. While communicating with each other, proper words and language should always be maintained.
Some tips for parents on parenting are also noted in this book in form of quotes.
This book is specially for all kinds of age groups. With simple and lucid language, author had tried his best to take you through the journey of life where we come across very important phases.
I really appreciate the efforts put into this book.

My fav. some quotes -

1) Appreciating others -

People may not come to know of it, but in time of crises, somebody’s appreciation or kind words are enough to face life’s battles.

2) Words and language -

If somebody thinks that by using harsh language he/she can get to his/her way, then they don’t realize that for every single obstacle they are able to pass through, ten more will crop up.

The words we use attract like minded individuals to our circle. So, I do good to get good.

3) Grooming young minds and Parenting -

Children inherently are innocent, so they should be treated with similar sense of innocence by elders.

4) General Quotes -

No one can stop the moment or time, for it will manifest through its natural force and nobody can catch time before it has presented itself.

The Reflections is not just a collection of quotes. It is a powerhouse of motivation, wisdom and insight.

The book is divided into four sections - Appreciating others, Words and Language, Grooming Young minds and Parenting, and General Quotes. I simply loved the followed quotes from the book.
A child when seeking your attention as a parent simply wants appreciation.

We humans have an innate hunger for being appreciated. Those who satiate this hunger always stay back in our good memories

Appreciation has the power to turn underdogs into super performers if done consistently over a period of time.

Many people lose track of their lives as there is lack of appreciation in their immediate environment. So, appreciation is vital in realizing our true potential.

Before you expect appreciation from others, you should take pride in your achievements. Only this way, appreciation received will reinforce your belief.

Words should always be chosen based on the audience’s background and the overall context.
Don’t speak for few minutes when you are angry. You may be simply venting your anger but someone’s life may take turn for the worse due to your words.

If one generation works hard and becomes learned and educated, the next generation’s learning grows manifold.

Love your children despite all their imperfections as they belong to you. You will find that slowly all their imperfections become less significant to their perfections.

However, I have some reservations about a few quotes like the following
Never hesitate to object people from using harsh words, however big they may be in position relative to you. You will be doing your own good and won’t let people trample you with their feet.

The same quote is repeated on page 47 and 48. I wish the same is corrected.

I am impressed with the book. This book is the best gift that you can give to your loved ones.

🌼This is another collection of quotes by Arun Malik, it was just a 100 pages read but it was extremely insightful! This book mainly focused on how to be kind to someone and everyone. How kindness can bring a huge change in our day to day living. Starting from the first page, the book was so intriguing, I couldn't get some quotes though and some felt monotonous but some quotes were mind blowing and the potential to make the reader think twice.
.
The language is easy and I am very grateful for this, due to which this book can be picked by anyone and I think everyone should give it a try atleast once. You can read it as per your convenience but read it slowly! Learn to be kind and helpful is what the most highlighted thought of the book. Definitely recommended!

Name of the book - The Reflections
Author's name - Arun Malik
Rating - 5⭐/5
.
🌎The word "Reflection" literally means the second image of our true self.
🌎Review - This book 'The Reflections' by Arun Malik is another motivational read in which he has formatised the quotes in 4 sections that are :-
1. Appreciating others
2. Words and language
3. Grooming young minds and parenting
4. General quotes
🌎The title of the book is very rightly choiced, full points to that, while at the same time I found no such link with the cover.
🌎Of all the four sections, my personal favourite is "Appreciating Others" because it relates to deep. By appreciating others, you may not be loosing anything but unknowningly you made someone's day, you boost their moral up to achieve more and this is what you get back in return because karma always plays its role of, and that's the 'reflection' of your soul, which you get back in return.
🌎The language is so lucid and it do connects so well with the readers. That's what called the power of narration and thoughts behind it.

The most important thing in the world is our relationships may it be with your partner, children or friends. The thing that has connected you with them is the language and words that you use. So, choose your words wisely as one said they will not come back and can highly impact your loved ones lives. Be humble, be good and stand with them who are with you in your both good and bad times. Show gratitude, that is be thankful. The author has done an appreciable job by working on this topic. This has been very helpful to me in day to day life in maintaining healthy relationships. The book is particularly divided into few sections: appreciating words, words and language, grooming young minds and parenting and general quotes.
The language used is simple and easy to understand. Writing style of the author is good. Cover page of the book is beautiful and interesting. I really liked the title of the book, it is beautiful.
Overall, this was an helpful read!

After reading Reflections the first thought that came to my mind was that such words are hard to find and why I hadn't come across it earlier.

Speaking of changing the person the author says
If you have to reform someone, start appreciating them. They will receive your words more openly and easily.

It is not that you can help the underprivileged only by offering money. The author says
Unprivileged folks have the greatest desire of being appreciated. Your kind words could be life changing for someone who doesn’t have family around them to do that.

The following lines had a great impact upon me
People don’t expect too much from their friends and loved ones. They only want to be loved and appreciated for who they are.

This is not just a book, it is a life mastery course. Buy it. You wont' repent it.

Every concern requires physical, financial and human resources to accomplish the goals. It is through motivation that the human resources can be utilized by making full use of it. This can be done by building willingness in employees to work. This will help the enterprise in securing best possible utilization of resources.

"The Reflections"
This is my next book by Mr Arun Malik.

This book is divided into 4 sections, appreciating other, words and language, grooming young minds and parenting, and general quotes.

As humans, we tend to loose sight of what matters the most in our lives, and this book does a commendable job at highlighting the important aspects of life and drawing the readers attention to them. As a person constantly searching for inspiration, this book helped me realise the valuable assets in life, that aren't money driven.

Like his others books, there are amazing quotes related to relationships, motivating the reader. The simple language makes the book easy to understand and follow.

Thank you Sir for sending me your books and allowing me this opportunity to review your books.

There is Enough motivation to propel you forward. If you have a thing for quotes, I suggest you go for this book and check out some of his other works as well. Motivation indeed does wonders. Few kind words when meant with genuine love, from the deepest part of your heart will result in something admirable and remarkable.

The truth always reflects. The actions always reflect. This book's quotes reflect too. This one primarily focuses on human relations between parents and children.

The book is yet another try of the author to make all of us aware of what we do, say and perceive by his neatly written quotes in order to get that happy and satisfactory life. Working well on the topic and telling us the importance of being grateful, the author has impressed me yet again.

A book that deals with something we encounter each day.
We all use "Words & Language" as a medium of exchange.
How good it would be if someone could tell about what kind of words to use?
Next it deals with Appreciating others. .isn't it a powerful tool?
Yes, it is ..If done over a time, it can turn underdogs into superperformers.
Parenting, this is the BEST section.
As happiness & peace in our life is derived from how we take care of our children & develop them into great personalities.
An awesome book.
Must Read.
Highly useful in real life if put to use.
