I love it!and yes, just like what Jay said. Reading this book wasn’t an easy ride for me. I had to follow his journey while facing my own tough moments: my self-crisis, my wishes, my downtime, and all the questions I had about my life.

But he’s right — we should try to think like a monk, not a monkey.
Such a powerful book to learn, reflect, and get to know yourself better.

It’s not the easiest read, some parts are a bit dense, but it’s definitely eye-opening. Taking it slow and trying to grasp how quick decisions affect so much more than we think.

Actually, this book was totally great! First of all, I was feeling stuck and wanted to find an easy-to-read book. So, I directly asked the librarian for a recommendation since he knows a lot about books. I ended up choosing this one randomly from four options.
Somehow, I felt familiar with this man, but I didn’t know him at all! How could this man talk about apartheid in such a fun way? I laughed and was amazed!
