1) What is the inspiration behind the book?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I heard Steve Job’s famous ‘Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish’ convocation address at Stanford University and I was inspired. I wondered how much inspiration an individual can draw from a book that is simply the compilation of inspirational speeches. So, I decided to bring together important snippets from distinguished persons who are well known in their own field.<\/p>\n

2) How did you go about writing this book?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I first created a list of over 200 top graduation speeches from top\u00a0universities around the World. I then shortlisted the top 50 speeches. I obtained the transcripts for each of the\u00a0speeches. As they ran into many pages, I\u00a0identified\u00a0the most motivating parts of their speeches and obtained concise excerpts. That’s how the book took shape.<\/p>\n

3) What is the ultimate objective of the book?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Anyone who picks up this book and reads it must be inspired. At the end of the reading experience, he\/she must not just be motivated to strive for excellence but also learn to ask important questions. In short, it must be a thought provoking exercise.<\/p>\n

4) When is the book out and where can I buy\u00a0it?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The book is scheduled for launch in December 2017. The book will be available in both print and Kindle format.<\/p>\n

5) Did you gain something in the process of writing the book?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oh boy! Where do I start? \u00a0This book is actually an excuse for me to fast track my personal development objective. There is a treasure trove of life lessons and I felt that I should do justice by sharing this to the rest of the world.<\/p>\n
