Light from Many Lamps: A Treasury of Inspiration

Rs. 1,990.00

or 3 installments of Rs.663.33 with

Lillian Eichler  Watson

 

“Over the years I have read innumerable books. But if I were asked to name those that are most dear to me, or the ones that affected me deeply, I would mention three. The first is called Light from Many Lamps, edited by Lillian Eichler Watson. I consider the book to be my companion, because I have leafed through it and read and reread it so many times over the years that I have possessed it.” — Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam

 

Being a great fan of Dr.Kalam, i bought this book. Obviously it is great and excellent. Every page has a message and moral. This book is for people who have a great thirst for achievement in life.Forget the past,set new goals and achieve them.!! –Loganathan on Apr 16, 2012

 

Anyone who wants everyday dosage of inspiration they can randomly open a page and they will be filled with enthusiasm and great energy. This book is a collection of several stories of person who made mistake and finally realize their mistake and get over their life. Someone said:”Your life is not so long to make mistake and learn from them so its better learn from others mistake.” A good dose for depression patient. –-Sharad Kiyal on Aug 17, 2012

 

As the name suggests, it is indeed ideas from several distinguished people and sources and a great way to inspire oneself…. I’d say I had related a lot to Thoreau and found myself at peace reading this delight. I must convey my sincere regards to Dr. Kalam for setting out the name of this book in his interview. Thoreau says ” What means the most common , most universal fact – that some soul that has lost all inspiration for itself, can inspire in another listening soul, an immense confidence even while it is expressing it’s despair” Salut, salut salut…to all the great thinkers and those who endeavour to make a difference to other people’s lives –Sidhartha Panda on Mar 1, 2015

    The Story of My Life

     Rs. 1,190.00
    or 3 X Rs.396.67 with

    Helen Keller

     

      When she was 19 months old, Helen Keller (1880–1968) suffered a severe illness that left her blind and deaf. Not long after, she also became mute. Her tenacious struggle to overcome these handicaps-with the help of her inspired teacher, Anne Sullivan-is one of the great stories of human courage and dedication.

     

    In this classic autobiography, first published in 1903, Miss Keller recounts the first 22 years of her life, including the magical moment at the water pump when, recognizing the connection between the word “water” and the cold liquid flowing over her hand, she realized that objects had names.

     

    Subsequent experiences were equally noteworthy: her joy at eventually learning to speak, her friendships with Oliver Wendell Holmes, Edward Everett Hale and other notables, her education at Radcliffe (from which she graduated cum laude), and-underlying all-her extraordinary relationship with Miss Sullivan, who showed a remarkable genius for communicating with her eager and quick-to-learn pupil.

    The Talent Code: Greatness isn’t Born. It’s Grown

     Rs. 2,190.00
    or 3 X Rs.730.00 with

    Daniel Coyle

     

    “I only wish I’d never before used the words ‘breakthrough’ or ‘breathtaking’ or ‘magisterial’ or ‘stunning achievement’ or ‘your world will never be the same after you read this book.’ Then I could be using them for the first and only time as I describe my reaction to Daniel Coyle’s The Talent Code. I am even willing to ‘guarantee’ that you will not read a more important and useful book in 2009, or pretty much any other year. And if all that’s not enough, it’s also ‘a helluva good read.'”—Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence

     

    “This is a remarkable—even inspiring—book. Daniel Coyle has woven observations from brain research, behavioral research, and real-world training into a conceptual tapestry of genuine importance. What emerges is both a testament to the remarkable potential we all have to learn and perform and an indictment of any idea that our individual capacities and limitations are fixed at birth.”—Dr. Robert Bjork, Distinguished Professor and Chair of Psychology, UCLA

     

    ‘Talent. You’ve either got it or you haven’t.’ Not true, actually.

     

    In The Talent Code, award-winning journalist Daniel Coyle draws on cutting-edge research to reveal that, far from being some abstract mystical power fixed at birth, ability really can be created and nurtured.

     

    In the process, he considers talent at work in venues as diverse as a music school in Dallas and a tennis academy near Moscow to demonstrate how the wiring of our brains can be transformed by the way we approach particular tasks. He explains what is really going on when apparently unremarkable people suddenly make a major leap forward. He reveals why some teaching methods are so much more effective than others. Above all, he shows how all of us can achieve our full potential if we set about training our brains in the right way.

    The Happiness of Pursuit: Find the Quest that will Bring Purpose to Your Life

     Rs. 2,390.00
    or 3 X Rs.796.67 with

    Chris Guillebeau

     

    • A New York Times Bestseller

     

    Chris Guillebeau is a rare combination of sage and adventurer, and The Happiness of Pursuit is both a distillation of his wisdom and a demonstration of his – and others’ – passion for the questing life. The passion Chris chronicles is infectious, and it becomes even more so as we read about life-focusing action delivering deep meaning. Even if you prefer never to leave your armchair, this book will inspire you to take a beautiful voyage – one that can be either physical or mental as you chase the thrill of steady accomplishment. — Susan Cain, Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of Quiet

     

    The Happiness of Pursuit is smart, honest, and dangerous. Why dangerous? Because it is as practical as it is inspiring. You won’t just be daydreaming about your quest – you’ll be packing for it! — Brene Brown, author of New York Times bestseller Daring Great

     

    It’s not easy to dream big – and it’s not easy to turn that dream into reality. The brilliant Chris Guillebeau provides the essential blueprint for those of us for whom the happiness of pursuit – such as Chris’s successful quest to visit every country in the world – is a key part of the pursuit of happiness — Gretchen Rubin, New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project

     

    If you like complacency and mediocrity, do not read this book. It’s dangerously inspiring. It will make you want to do amazing things with your life. You may not end up visiting every country on Earth or directing a global protest from the top of a tree (I certainly won’t), but Chris made me want to dive into an adventure. The Happiness of Pursuit is a how-to guide for avoiding a boring life. — A.J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author of The Know-It-All and The Year of Living Biblically

     

    The incredible quests Chris Guillebeau explores in The Happiness of Pursuit, including his own to visit every country, left me feeling exhausted. Of course, as a person who works from home, I limit my quests most days to taking a shower. Bottom line: these stories are inspiring-and very, very entertaining.” — Joel Stein, columnist for Time magazine and author of Man Made: A Stupid Quest for Masculinity
