About Book

• Title : A Boy in the Town
• Language : english
• Genre : non-fiction

One of the peculiar traits of humans is, they tend value the things that have a price tag. So, we don’t value free stuff unless faced with adversities, and life is one such wonderful gift awarded to us. The magical part of life is that it is what you make of it. Unlike most of us, life doesn't carry a fragile ego or stubbornness that ties it to a single construct. It doesn't come with predisposed impressions. We all desire a life of perfection—one free from struggle—but greatness often emerges from hardship. Even diamonds are formed under extreme pressure. Humans are uniquely gifted with the ability to think, reflect, and manage ourselves. Self-management is the foundation for building strong interpersonal relationships and effectively managing others. Self-love, and self-awareness garners self-management. Your self- love must be stronger than the desire to be loved by others. In, A Boy in the Town, Gaurav Kapil shares 17 stories, each encapsulated in pithy few lines, reflecting on innocence of childhood, to the aspirations traversing through the desire of freedom, financial independence, futile pursuit of success, and Succumbing to the temptation of easy credit {spending before earing}. This in essence is the sum and substance of Gaurav’s reflections over the past four decades, seen through the eyes of Kumar. Hope you find resonance, relevance and veracity in the reflections shared in this book!!
