8h Principle

Description

There is no single measure of success, and certainly no single answer for how to be successful.Yet by observing the lives of luminaries, we can learn a few strategies to stay ahead in the game. In The 8-H Principle, business tycoon and popular radio jockey Kaushik Ghosh dives deep into the eight principles—honesty, hard work, hobby, holiday, health, humility, humanity, hope—that can help us lead a fulfilling life. Through various case studies the author shares a few learnings: how beyond being a moral imperative, honesty is a practical necessity for success in life; how hard work is not just a tool to further our career but has a deep spiritual dimension to it; how hobbies add purpose to our lives; how cultivating inner peace is not only crucial for our fulfilment, but also benefits others; how prioritizing mental, social, spiritual health along with physical health can truly keep us healthy; how by acknowledging our limitations, we open doors to self-growth; how being humane is the foremost aspect of living a meaningful life; how hope without action is merely wishful thinking. The book underscores the significance of integrating persistence, empathy, self-care and creativity into our lives because only then we can cultivate true human connections and leave a positive impact on the world.
