Robin Sharma says, "Heroism is the root of all success, joyfulness and spiritual freedom"

New Delhi, April 1 For over twenty-five years, legendary leadership and elite performance virtuoso Robin Sharma has quietly taught business titans, professional sports superstars and entertainment royalty a revolutionary system that has helped these luminaries translate their highest ambitions into daily results. Now, in "The Everyday Hero Manifesto" -his masterwork- this path blazer has distilled the best principles, protocols and tactics from his mentoring method into a gloriously valuable work that is part playbook for explosive productivity, part instruction manual for leading a world-class life and part universal guide to becoming a spiritual heavyweight that lifts the world.

After the success of over 12 books, Robin Sharma has launched a new one titled "The Everyday Hero Manifesto".

Robin Sharma speaks exclusively to life about his new book which attempts to transform people's lives and help them achieve undefeatable positivity, spiritual freedom and undisrupted discipline to get rare-air results in life.

Who do you think is a Hero? What trait defines a Hero for you? Is it the success or the qualities and virtues?

Robin Sharma: A hero-or an Everyday Hero as I call one in my new book-is a so-called ordinary human who refuses to behave like a powerless victim. Our world tells us that we must be famous and great to be a hero yet there are wider versions of heroism. The baker rises at 5 AM to prepare beautiful goods. The coder who does their work to Beethoven-composed music. The single parent who works super hard to care for their children and yet radiates positivity and goodness. Such souls-too-are heroes. The Everyday Hero Manifesto shares a transformational methodology on how anyone can recode their lives to become far happier, more productive, braver and more peaceful.

A lot of your books are on leadership, wisdom and virtues of life. What inspired you to write a book on heroism?

Robin Sharma: Great question! Heroism is the root of all success, joyfulness and spiritual freedom. Once we learn the rules and daily habits of heroism, we not only rise in our work, become more confident, enjoy richer days and get beautiful things done, we also reclaim the self-honour that so many of us have lost. Through life's trials, hurts and busyness.

Discipline happens to be one of the toughest areas to conquer for the current generation. Procrastination is a new-age monster. Your book is an instruction manual for discipline as well. How did you discover this problem that people face?

Robin Sharma: Yes, the book has a number of key chapters on building world-class discipline so we materialize our promise, make our ethical ambitions real and lead the lives we want, versus being reactive and living our lives like a 5-alarm fire. I should mention that The Everyday Hero Manifesto also explains the science and tactics for rest, renewal and feeling more alive. As I write in the book: "success without soulfulness is an empty victory." Being self-disciplined is incredibly important to winning yet so is enjoying the process of your life.

I added these chapters on building heroic self-control so we become fitter, stronger and more productive in this world of dramatic distraction and limitless interruption after working with so many clients who have shared that they have mighty dreams yet failed to have the discipline to get them done.

The title The Everyday Hero Manifesto leads me to the word Manifestation. How important do you think is it to wake up every morning and manifest your dreams?

Robin Sharma: Interesting! I used "manifesto" as the work distils the method, models and protocols from my mentoring of billionaires, sports icons and movement-makers. It's a complete instruction manual for a soaring life.

Yet, you're right. We must grow our skills at creating the ideals that speak to the higher angels of our greatest nature. And I do think a great and joy-filled life comes from waking up
