I have beautiful memories of finishing my last exam paper, putting my pen down, feeling relieved that exams were done and the long summer vacation had just begun. I would dash to the circulating book library at the corner and pick up a handful of books. Days of total bliss just lying in bed and reading. I am an avid reader, and the feel of holding a book in my hand and voraciously reading it from the first page to the last without putting it down was exhilarating. Of course, in those days, it was more about fiction, comic books, and magazines. 📚✨
In the corporate world, I migrated to leadership and motivational books and then to self-help books that gave me knowledge, inspired me, and became part and parcel of my personal growth journey. I would gift them to friends, colleagues, and clients whenever I felt they had the need in their lives, and it helped them. These books have become my anchor, and many times when I seek guidance, I am drawn to a particular book in my library, and even a specific page!
At Purple Lotus, we are aware that life gets too busy, and reading self-help books is either a discipline or a luxury. More so, sifting through thousands of books out there is a bit overwhelming. However, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! 🌟 Introducing The Purple Collection: self-help book reviews and curation of messages from the books to help you pick the right read for your personal growth journey. 📖💡
Do share with us titles of books that inspired you and why. We would love to bring those into our collection and share them with the community. 📚💜
