[Following is a volunteer review of "Wisdom" by Arun mago.]

This book is filled with the author's experiences and advice, as well as rambling ideas on life, professional reflections, human behavior dynamics, and a long-standing way of looking at the world.

The author dives into the story of life and a healthy way of living, touching on subjects like the teachers we have in our lives—our parents, the environment, money, and our families. If we are willing to be receptive to new ideas and see the significance of the people around us, these teachers offer us important life lessons. Within the behavioral portions, the principles of responsibility include qualities like intelligence, punctuality, and sensitivity—all of which help to bring out the best in people. The narration highlighted the value of logic since it promotes clear thinking and produces desirable results. The author explains the box concepts through the lens of our hectic lifestyle, the ingrained thinking from ancient times that persists indefinitely, and offers suggestions to enhance this way of living.

The next topic is about how important it is to be respectful to others, to practice gratitude, to be open to new experiences, to be free to take care of oneself, to respect seniors, to break the cycle of cell phone dependency, to adopt positive behavior, and to accept inner beauty as essential components of a positive emotional being and a positive human.

When it comes to practical considerations in professional life aspects, topics such as choosing productivity rather than merely being busy in our daily routine can significantly contribute to growth. Understanding the distinction between wealth and money is essential to money management and promotes financial discipline. The smaller sections deal with chasing dreams, working towards goals, professional footsteps, and the difference between doing a job and having your own business.

My rating for this book is 2 out of 5. The book's emphasis on "life" and "box," along with a little part on "being productive, not busy," were the only things that kept my interest the whole time I was reading it. The only thing this book does well is the author's effort to convey an important message.
I have a list of things that let me down: The book's plot, which is just a collection of unrelated ideas put together to make a book, is disorganized and lacks compelling ideas to offer; it switches randomly between the titles "Beauty" and "Box" without any sense of progression or meaningful connection between the subjects, making for a disinteresting read. The chosen titles, except for a few, lacked a compelling message to captivate readers due to their weak narration and basic conversational writing structure. The book's internal marketing, which invites readers to "like," "comment," and "share," seriously ruins the reading experience. Furthermore, the book lacks competent editing and punctuation marks, which add to its overall unpleasantness.

A very detailed review. I am sorry you found the book unpleasant. I can understand how hard it is when chapters lack cohesive progression, and to make it worse, the editing was subpar.

I share your views on this book. It could have been written way better.

Wow, it sounds like your 2 stars are very generous. Disorganized, blatantly fishing for likes, and poorly edited. I think I'll pass on this one. Thanks for the heads-up.

Your review points out the significant aspects of this book. The book may be less engaging. The title and cover page, though, look impressive. I am wondering how I would rate this book. So, I will read it at least once.

A few hours ago, I thought this would be a great read and planned to start it as soon as possible. However, after reading your review and seeing the drawbacks you've listed, I don't think I will enjoy the book. Thanks for the enlightening review!

I have just recently read this book. I liked it, but I wouldn't say it is a must-read. It has a lot of helpful points that have been formulated from the author's personal experiences and opinions.
Thanks for the review.

Thank you very much for your thoughtful review. I appreciate your comment about the book. There are many good ideas that they seem detached from each other, making the reading a bit slow.

Thank you for this thorough and honest review. The fact that you find this book to be disorganized, lacking compelling views, and not well edited discourages me from reading this book. I will wait until the author corrects these shortcomings.

Based on your review, it sounds like the book falls short in several critical areas despite its attempt to convey important messages about life and productivity. The disorganization and lack of compelling ideas make it challenging to engage with the content consistently. Additionally, the random shifts between topics without clear connections undermine the coherence of the narrative. Issues such as weak narration, basic writing structure, and distracting internal marketing further detract from the reading experience. The lack of competent editing and punctuation also contributes to the overall disappointment. Your rating of 2 out of 5 reflects these shortcomings well.
