Useful Wisdom, Annoying Delivery
22. Juni 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
PRO: Useful quotations, meaningful wisdom, well organized, good summaries.
CON: Artificial fable, phony dialogue, and self congratulatory style of writing.
Although I did get some useful ideas, Sharma has such an annoying style that it's distracting. For example:
* He puts a little Trademark symbol next to many of his ideas, like "Leadership Audit" or "Weekly Sabbatical" or "The Wow Question" or "Aggressive Listening." He even tries to Trademark the title of his book (which you cannot do!). His ideas are not that original and trying to trademark them is so amateurish and annoying.
* The conversations are contrived and artificial. In fact the whole fable feels fake. I'm not sure how to improve it, but it just doesn't feel right.
* He pats himself on the back in the conversations. For example, when the monk tells Peter (the regular guy) something, Peter responds, "Fascinating" or "That's remarkable" or "Amazing." I'm not joking. He writes this. So it's hard for me to separate the fact that the author is basically saying that he is so great.
CONCLUSION: The book has wisdom and can be digested quickly. But Sharma's writing style and story are so annoying that it detracts from the message. Try another book.

Did Yogi Raman know Dr. Stephen Covey and the Monk?
4. Februar 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
Robin Sharma does a masterful job of expanding on Dr.Covey's Seven Habits of Highly Effective People with his 8 Rituals of Visionary Leaders. As a certified Seven Habits Facillitator for the past 12 years, I found the book very stimulating and reinforcing to my Seven Habits practices and Principled Leadership. For example, Yogi Raman's Time Model for Visionary Leadership requiring Time leadership closely parallels Dr.Covey's Time Management Matrix focusing on the important/not urgent in leading a Quadrant II life style. The Yogi also recommends weekly planning around prioritized roles and goals. Again, I applaud Mr. Sharma for providing additional insights into my personal quest for achieving my Mission and Purpose in life. He also provides interesting perspectives that are helpful to me in my own "emotional intelligence" work as I advocate and teach Dr.Goleman's Five competencies of Emotional
Intelligence-Self awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skills. I am recommending this work to all my friends and students who share the quest for a "life of service and purpose to make a difference"-"leave a legacy".

Nice and simple, but nothing more...
18. August 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is very light and entertaining. However, the story is an ill-concocted version of the Seven Habits of highly effective people by Dr. Stephen Covy, which is, by the way, the book you should REALLY get.
Contrary to this lame copied version of poor story-telling, the Seven Habits is a very deep and moving book. It has substance and depth and if you are prepared to listen, it will change you life.
Ok, back to this book... the book is alright I guess, if not for the very annoying fact that the story is completely based in the Seven Habits, it shows a lighter version of the habits that may be entertaining, or otherwise a good way to get into the habits. Who knows, it may lead you to the other book, which is good.
If you prefer substance over "lightness", don't get this book. Furthermore, as another reviewer puts it, is poorly writen.
I'm only giving two stars over one, because the habits in which it is based are really something to look into...
