The Everyday Hero Manifesto: Book Review
There is a hero inside all of us. Every one of us can become great. It’s just that many of us are not aware of these hidden powers and how to use them. The Everyday hero manifesto by Robin Sharma contains valuable teaching on how you can take the initial steps to unlock your superpower and use it for your benefit.
The Everyday Hero Manifesto contains short chapters on activities you could do daily, such as journaling and focusing on your health, along with the teachings to do the inner work. His experience of a quarter of a century is extracted into these chapters. These chapters are not connected or in continuation but are necessary topics that Robin felt his readers must be familiar with, which they can employ in their daily routine.
Some of the vital chapters of The Everyday Hero Manifesto, which I feel the readers of this platform should read, include The Peak Productivity Strategies Pyramid, where he mentions the tips and tricks to have high productivity. Another excellent insight would be from The 8-forms of Wealth, where he expresses his opinions about varied fields where we must strive to perform well.

One thing which is particularly intriguing about his book, particularly The Everyday hero manifesto, is his constant efforts to get the readers to start answering some deep and demanding questions. I have felt that as we are advancing to a more digitized future, we have begun forfeiting the capacity to understand our true purpose.
We have been so busy being busy that we do not pause and contemplate whether the thing we are doing is justified or not. Another interesting topic of discussion in the book is mortality and how people behave when facing such thoughts.
Although there are some portions of the book, which I find repetitive in Robin Sharma’s book, I can’t blame him for that. He is a motivation guru, and maybe he feels some topics are too important to write in every book, or perhaps he runs out of ideas sometimes. Who am I to judge?
All things aside, The Everyday hero manifesto is an inspiring book where an open mind, non-disturbing surroundings, and cool weather will get you going for the day.
