I will keep the original wordings & details for you to go & explore if you have not read the book so far. In this chapter, he says how important it is for a human to consider themselves as a part of nature & not as something above it.

My favourite one is the thirteenth Tuesday when I was so excited that I just got up from my reading chair for no reason. The book is divided into fourteen sets of conversations that happened on Tuesdays just like the Title.

And the chances are high that these things are undervalued in society.

For example, we all tend to value big things, the tag BIG is what society decided but what we need to focus on is what's big for you. It simply says focus on things that matter to you. What an interesting way to germinate self-sustainability & consciousness in a human being.īuilding our own culture doesn't mean abandoning the existing one. What matters a lot is what you realised which you already knew but you knew it differently until then.Īnother gripping concept that kept me thinking from the book is building our subculture. It can be an experience that you figured out yourself. Your coach doesn't need to be one person, the person doesn't need to be older than you, it can be a kid as well, or maybe your coach doesn't need to be a person at all. Having a mentor or a guide in life is extremely important. Though the book talks a lot about various aspects like relationships, life, death, family, emotions, wealth and so on, what impressed me & probably will fascinate you as well is the nature of the conversations between the coach & the player. Well, that's what you think initially but as you move along the pages, you start being a realist & realise that what we think as bad arent really bad when we accept them like one of the lines from the book read 'once you learn to die, you learn how to live.' It talks about a series of pessimistic things articulated optimistically. I am not being pessimistic here but I was curious to know people's thoughts on death. Even if some do, they spend very little time thinking about death. How many of you ever think about death when you are alive? Maybe a few of you. For those who do not - here are the reasons why this book is a must-read in your 20s or 30s or whichever 'es you belong to. Those who already know them could relate. For some reason, I love the word coach just like how Morrie loved Mitch calling him.Įver since I started reading the book 'Tuesdays with Morrie' I fell in love with the word Coach just like Mitch Albom.

Do you have a coach in your life? sometimes they are called life coaches, mentors or teachers.
