The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho is undoubtedly a winner. Little difficult to understand because the writing style is highly philosophical and symbolic.. perfect for my reading taste. The book carries dozens of learnings under the layers of text. Pick up those which are practical or your favorites and it will be easy for you to remember those key learning points. I have always believed that whatever God decides for you is for your own best, the only thing to call for help and listen to him - "when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it." The lessons learnt in addition to the one described are numerous.. focus, determination, understanding and analyzing situations, learn from nature, loving HIM the most, lessons are endless, so the task of listing 'em all is kinda impossible. This book is such that whenever you'll flip and read through its pages, you will learn something new than before for sure!
