This is an awesome book. You will never regret if you are
planning to the book on Positive thinking or planning for reading a book on
regret free life than i must say my first preference is to this book Keys by
Santosh Joshi. The cover design of the book is very symbolic as it says open
your door to live a regret free and positive life, also design is done be creative
team of ThinkWhyNot. When Thinkwhynot mailed me if i want to write a review on
this book, at that time i was not sure whether to select or not to select
because i have read many books on self help, but i must say i have not taken
any wrong decision, its a must read book.
This book Keys is divided into three parts i.e. HLP where H
means Heal your past L means Live your present and P means Plan your
future. Before starting any chapter
their are cartoons printed along with that a small sentence are written it,
which are very symbolic it represents human tendency to think any situation in
a particular manner. Now for first few chapter i.e. Heal your past the author
Santosh Joshi says don’t stretch your past let it be, free yourself from your
past just analyse it and make a proper decision for your future. Bygones are
bygones which is written many times in first few chapters for healing your
past. Their are many anecdotes written in this book which are very useful. Also
their are many inspirational stories that one should re-read it. Santosh Joshi
has given a new method which i liked the most which is if someone/something
hurting you or the memories which hurts you most just write it down in a paper
tear the paper burn it or flush it. Do this method whenever you feel low or
when your past memory hurts you, it really helps i have done it myself. After Heal
your past their is Live your present in which Santosh Joshi says past are past
enjoy your present moment. Mistakes are a great teacher learn from your
mistakes just analyze it, believe in your inner voice which will guide you
throughout your life. Their is a chapter
for gratitude in live your present which i liked the most where santosh Joshi
says having a feeling of gratitude makes us aware of the things we have in our
life, gratitude is the direct route for happiness, also those who are practicing
gratitude and humility attracts success in their life. Now for the last few
chapters are for Plan your future. The author says visualize, which is the best
tool to achieve your future goals. By visualizing your mind attracts those
vibrations the more you think about something in a positive way the more are
chances of that manifesting in your life. After every completion of chapters their
are given powerful tools, if you re-refer it many times i must say your life
will be changed in a positive way. My suggestion
to the readers that don’t put this book in a shelf you should re-read it many times
give to your friends, gift to someone i assure you those who will read this
book their perspective of life will be changed.
The lines which i liked the most:
Make sure that people remember you for the right reasons. It is very difficult to build a good reputation as it takes a long time; however, it just takes a couple of seconds to spoil it. So always choose your words and actions carefully. Page no. 18
Remember, your thoughts in this moment are going
to create your future. You are creating your future every moment. Page

We become as we think. If we think of greatness, our
life will turn towards greatness.Page no.133
Happiness can never be achieved by material
gains. To be really happy one has to look inside and not outside. Page
no. 143
Working hard without a plan is similar to
running on a treadmill. We end up at the same place. Page

for all of today’s problems, illnesses, diseases, stresses, relationship issues
and fears. Page

yourself at least once a day. Otherwise you may miss a meeting with an
excellent person in this world.” Page
