The 5 Daily Devotions

Discover Your Destiny is the latest title from Robin Sharma, the famous author of “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari”. In this book, he had tried to prescribe few good things to follow so that we can develop holistically in our life’s journey. The 5 prescriptions are:

1. Devote yourself to rising at 5 AM every day. Those who get up early are those who get the best from life.

2. Devote yourself to setting aside the first sixty minutes of your day your “Holy Hour”. This is your sacred time to do the inner work required to help you become your best. Use this period to read from the wisdom literature, to meditate or pray, to reflect on the state of your life and the progress of your dreams or think deeply about what must unfold over the coming hours of the day in order for you to feel it was a successful one. Performing this ritual daily will help you to shine brightly in the world and live at your highest.

3. Devote yourself to displaying a standard of care, compassion and character well beyond what anyone could imagine from you. In doing so, you will be doing your part to aid in the building of a new world.

4. Devote yourself to displaying a standard of excellence at work far higher than anyone would ever expect from you. Abundance and fulfillment would flow back to you.

5. Devote yourself to being the most loving person you know and thinking, feeling and acting as though you are one of the greatest people currently on the planet. Your life will never be the same and you will bless many lives.

The difficulty is getting up at 5 AM. If this is done, all other things would surely fall in line. Please try to follow. We are sure you would see the difference in you very soon.
