Title: The 5 am Club
Author: Robin Sharma
Publisher: Jaico Publishing House
Robin Sharma’s ‘The 5 am Club’ is a fictionalized self-help
guide for achievers at every stage of their lives. The helpful tips to mend
one’s life has been doled out in the form of tiny nuggets chiefly through three
characters — the artist, the entrepreneur, and the eccentric tycoon — who,
while living their own struggles, heed the advice that is meant to turn their
lives around.
Sharma’s latest release brings together lessons for those
who want to make something of their lives. A legendary leadership and elite
performance expert, the author introduced The 5 AM Club concept over twenty
years ago. This revolutionary morning routine, according to the author, has
helped his clients maximize their productivity, activate their best health, and
bulletproof their serenity in this age of overwhelming complexity. In his
latest release he goes back to this concept and emphasizes its viability
through a fictionalized story.
His prose is clear and easy to read, keeping the focus on
observations, questions, and recommendations. He also provides an effective
vision of what makes a true leader. Overall, Sharma has yet again produced a useful
guide that will aid people of all ages.
However, what kept irking me was the dragging story-line. It
kind of seemed superfluous to me and could have been done away with. Whatever
the author chose to say, he could have done it in a non-fictionalized version
in the form of a true self-help book. In addition, much of what he writes in
this book is the amalgamation of all his theories given out by him thus far in
his previous releases. There’s nothing new in this one per se. Of course, for
the new initiates it holds some terrific suggestions and advice.
Overall, Sharma’s ‘The 5 am Club’ is an authoritatively
written life manual.
Robin Sharma is a globally respected humanitarian. Widely
considered one of the world’s top leadership and personal optimization
advisors, his clients include famed billionaires, professional sports superstars
and many Fortune 100 companies. The author’s #1 bestsellers, such as the Monk
Who Sold His Ferrari, The Greatness Guide and The Leader Who Had No Title are
in over 92 languages, making him one of the most broadly read writers alive
today.
I'd like to thank the publisher for letting me review the book. I do hope you end up liking the book when you read it. Thank you so much for stopping by, and happy reading!
