The Monk Who Sold his Ferrari: The inspiring tale from international bestselling author, Robin Sharma Paperback – 31 Dec. 2015

It's an amazing and inspirational book. It really hit hard on your heart. It seems the mirror to your inner self towards the outlook of life.

They loved the book and speedy delivery in time for Christmas

I bought this book after reading the charming Serendipity's Secret: A novel way to achieve your dreams and find the path to happiness which also uses the fable format to good effect. I thought 'The Monk...' had some great ideas and I enjoyed reading it. Just like Serendipity's Secret, I loved the idea of a 'coach' and a 'coachee' as the central characters and the useful summaries at the end of each chapter were effective.Yes, it is a bit cheesy and the dialogue a bit stilted at times, but this made it no less of a compulsive read which I looked forward to getting stuck into each day. I loved the use of Yogi Rahman's fable to summarise the ideas in the book, which I now refer to daily to remind me to put the book's teaching into practice. Overall, an enjoyable and insightful read!

Bought for a friend as a gift.I've this book for about 10 years and always go back to it.It's such a calming book and teaches you that we do not need lots of material things in life to be happy.The main thing we need is calmness, less stress and time to ourselves

Amazing choice if you're looking on seeing a different vision of the world referring on how you see it from outside.

The advice in this book is excellent and I think that anyone who implements it will greatly enhance their lives. Let me state that first because it is important to point it out that I am fully aware and accepting of that value. That being said, this is not good literature, the plot and characters are simple, shallow and full of cliche. None of these elements resonated with me. The book remains a bad attempt at combining storytelling with self-help, and so... it is none of them. Contrast this book with another one that targets this kind of melding: The Teachings of Don Juan. Now that is great storytelling! With very well defined and developed characters AND with some great life advice (if you can interpret symbols). There is no comparison between these two books. It would have been much better to show us the life of Julian, and how he became a monk, how he lived in the Himalayas, make the reader feel his conflict, his troubles, how he slowly finds his way. Instead he comes back "fixed" and summarizes what happened to him.

Great little read. Was recommended to me by my brother. And I can say this, that although I personally prefer a , let's say a more adult, or complex use of the english langauge, as aforementioned it's a good little read, - Not too much thinking involved & like a bad tv programme keeps you hooked. That's for sure :) I mean, it's a best seller for a reason, & it does breath new life & optimism into living life. For person's like myself it was a breat of fresh air, whereby money isn't the be all'. If you liked the Alchemist, (by the way this is no way as good) I think you'll probably like this too, a simple read, few great points for us all to take on board (& apply) - Overall, worth the money! No regrets.

I cried four times reading on some of the pages on the chapter whilst i was on the train.The sentence that hit me was stop being a prisoner of the past whilst you can be an architect of the future. Because of my past i dwelled on, i am positivity planning for the future. The book has lead me to reflect on myself and evaluate my next stages in life.For a person who hardly reads this has been a big impact on me . I have bought another book by Rob sharma and havent been able to stop reading !
