‘License To Live: A Seeker’s Journey to Greatness’ by Priya Kumar is an inspirational thriller. It is a seeker’s journey towards finding greatness within. It is about finding the direction you are destined to head in and creating the life of your dreams.
It tells the tale of a successful corporate guru who enrolls herself in a seminar by one of the finest success coaches in the world. His radical training methods take her on a life-changing journey. A seven-day seminar spread over three countries, puts her on a journey where she is forced to look within and be her own teacher and guide, something she had done so well for others but missed doing for herself.
The book made me ponder upon life and made me explore my inner strengths and the flaws and taught me lessons that has changed the way I see life, forever. The most important learning I have taken from this book is simple, is to let go of the dark past, hold onto the past you would want to cherish, your future is in your hands and no one else’s, take responsibility of the present and stop the blame game.
It has even made me respect time and utilise the time in making fond memories and successful missions rather than procrastinating to how little time I have in completing big tasks. The book isn’t another cliché that just keeps going on about life, it makes you want to look within yourself and make you ready for the future that is ahead of you.
