Hey, can you do me a favor?

Hey there, 

Hope you are doing well. I just wanted to let you know a few things about my book. 

Sold Out & Top 150 Books on Amazon

Those of you who follow me on social media, know that my new book 'The Things We Don't Know' was published about 3 weeks ago. In the first two weeks, it was sold out on Flipkart, and it is one of the top 150 sold books in its category on Amazon right now!

One of my personal goals is to reach the top 10 most sold books on Amazon, and for that, I will need your help. 

The book covers a bit of history, philosophy and culture, and it is available on Amazon, Flipkart, Barnes & Noble,  and pretty much every online book store worldwide. (The full list is available in the bottom of this email)

Whether you like paperback or eBooks, if you enjoy reading, take a look and see if this is something you may be interested in.

Writing The Book

The past few months have been amazing, exhausting, exhilarating - but most of all - very eye opening. I've wanted to write a book for about four years, but until a few months ago, I didn't get a head start on what to write about (or how.).

The support I've received from all friends and family has been brilliant - and thank you very much for that. 

Can You Do Me A Favor?

If you've read the book already, I would like to ask a favor: Could you leave a review on the website where you purchased the book? It helps other readers like you decide whether or not the book is suitable for them, and certainly helps the author increase his/her reach. 

Thank you for sharing the message, and a HUGE thank you for your support in making this dream possible. If you haven't yet gotten a copy, but would like to, read on...

Where Can I Get The Book?

One of the amazing advantages of technology is that things are easily accessible worldwide. So it is with my book. The book was stocked globally - US, Europe, Asia and Australia. Whether you're a fan of Amazon or a less giant bookseller, I've got you covered.

Here are the links for the Paperback / Hard Copy / e-book:

1. Amazon (India Here)
   
2. Flipkart
   
3. Barnes & Noble
   
4. Book Depository
   
5. Kobo
6. Full list here (Go to Stores Button)

Check it out, and do let me know what you think. I want to hear your thoughts, and if you know anyone who might enjoy this book, please forward them this message.

Going from failure to success

If you're not constantly failing, you're not doing enough. It's true - try new things and push yourself to the edge of your limits. But failing can often leave you feeling miserable. But there's not need to give up.

The four steps in the road from failure to success:

1. Know that you as a person did not fail. Just the activity that you did was a failure.
2. Analyze what part of your activity was a failure. Typically, there might be one or two things you can improve and change the outcome of any activity. Consciously try finding these.
3. Then, try it again.
4. Learn from it, and don't make THAT mistake again.

Easy enough, right?
