‘In The Ring with Life’ is one of the best books I have ever read. The author has been able to touch on various important facets of life in a very interesting and appealing manner. There are nuggets of wisdom strewn throughout the book which would go a long way to make the diligent reader a better achiever, and a better human whatever may be his station in life. The author succeeds in striking an immediate rapport with the reader by her friendly approach without any semblance of sermonising. The punches delivered in the ring by LIFE are only various crisis situations including the retrenchment which the Author had faced at the height of her career due to COVID19. The author has been able to tide over all such situations with love for all living beings, patience, and courage. I recommend this book to all men and women who strive to lead meaningful and satisfying life.
When I got hold of In The Ring With Life, I did not quite know what to expect beyond knowing that it is a self-help, self-development kind of book. I somehow have a tinge of cynicism with such books but as I curiously treaded on, I found myself digesting the book slowly, word by word, line by line and chapter by chapter. Having finished reading it, it felt like I just had a very intimate, pleasurable yet familiar conversation with the author, Shashi. Some parts of the book are poignant, some parts are funny, other parts can be downright serious but taken as a whole, the book provides an inspiring account of an extraordinary life. The book is a personal life’s journey that she has opted to lay bare and in so doing, provided loads of positive vibes that you can only glean from someone like Shashi. After you have navigated yourself in the ring with life with her, if ever you are hit hard by life, you would have learnt how to punch back and stand tall to be the undisputed winner.
Strongly recommended as a good read
