Book Review: Art Of Being Alone
Spending time on Social media is good but to be better and creative you must need to read a lots of books, For the thirst of Knowledge I Read "The Art Of Being Alone". Wich Guides Me how to find Own self in world Of Distraction.
The book it self is divided in two parts And Contains 11 Chapter,Each Chapter Helps Reader To Explore their own self. In beginning author of the book clearly defines what is Solitude and loneliness..
Solitude is my Home,
Loneliness was my Cage.
Writer Of these Book was In Her 20 When She write this Book So there is nothing like generation gap or something beyond our understanding . She firmly Accept that she doesn't want to show us facts from history in which no one is interested but a book from Heart , A book filled with her Own Experience.
First Part of book says that how people are hiding their true self to just stay in touch with some people . They are scared of being alone and thinks that if he/ she will not do perticular things or not look good then no one will accept them and they will left behind . It simply Suggest that
In Order to stay with someone
I stayed away from my self
Then She Briefly discussed that how in modern time people romanticised loneliness . She Agrees that people suffers more not because of others expections but because of peoples own thought of what people expect from them . She suggests that to be more creative and innovative person you must need to accept your self, emphasizing that sometimes it's good to be self centred Suggesting that You are made of your self not of peoples ,You have your own Skills , intrest and things to do . In Our Childhood we have heard the story that there was a poor boy and then someone just came and motivates him to do things and then everything ends happily , but it seems like fantasies in real life you can wait for someone till your death but no such character exist in this world so build that character in your self wich will stay with you forever and wich keeps you Unique in the World of Copiness.
Part Two provide us Wonderful information so that we can creat a strong bond with our own self , and it helps us to believe that changing own self for temporary people isn't good may be first it seems good but with the time one must learn how to deal with loneliness and how to turn loneliness in solitude
The book also Emphasis Action it suggests that everything is useless untill you start acting on it. Book Suggest strait forward don't make your self just tag holder wich is given you bby people . Let them discuss their opinions and leave them it doesn't require your Focus and time .
Book Suggest that There might be a bunch of things that you don't like about your life at the moment. But you need to understand that you are not a magician. You cannot make everything work at once. You need to become an essentialist here.
It's been a long time since you are waiting for others to understand your desires and then turn them into reality. It's time you do everything that you desire with yourself. Plan a dinner date with yourself at the end or start of every month. Take yourself for a coffee date. Click pretty pictures of yourself.
