Practice of kindness and compassion: Bettering relationships in the wake of kindness, empathy, and generosity toward others.
Simplicity: Shaking off materialism and the extra stress it imposes; getting to what really counts in a human life—connections, serenity within, and self-expansion.

Keeping time under control: No procrastination, minimal distraction, and time effectiveness for things that are going to impact fulfillment.
Overcome fear and adversity: Develop the strength to encounter your fears and challenges not as goals but as the opportunity for one to develop oneself.
Enjoy life in the moment: Be there in every moment and enjoy the simple fun things of life and learn to be thankful.
Brief chapters that easily flow into the mind, Sharma asks readers to consider the legacy they want to leave in memory of what they did today. Sharma stresses that success is not when you attain the pinnacle but when you have managed to leave a beneficial impact with others.
