What is happiness? How do we achieve happiness? What is life? And how do we master life? These are just a few questions addressed in Ritu Chopra’s book, Mastering Life: Exploring Your Untapped Potential to Reach New Heights. The author provides valuable lessons through self-evaluation, self-exploration, and self-discovery to help readers achieve growth, understanding, and, ultimately, happiness by addressing important themes in their lives.

I should warn you: if you’re looking for a book that guarantees instant happiness, then this self-help book is not for you. I should also mention that this self-help book is not for the faint-hearted—you must approach it with an open mind and an open heart, ready to take responsibility for your own life.

There are many valuable lessons in Mastering Life to guide you toward achieving your goals. The book is also filled with motivational and inspirational quotes to cheer you on along the way. Chopra believes that a genuine effort toward self-development must be made to achieve one’s desires and goals. “It is very difficult to look inside ourselves to find our own deficiencies in order to uncover our hidden enemies,” says Chopra.

However, after applying the lessons provided in the book to address my own need for work/life balance and happiness, I felt somewhat empowered knowing that I’ve always had complete control over my happiness and unhappiness. If I had to compare my journey with Mastering Life to something, I would liken it to the scene in The Wizard of Oz when Dorothy discovers she always had the power to take herself home.

Like many self-help books, what you put into it determines what you get out of it. With that said, no two people will ever have the same outcome. Mastering Life is a tool—a very handy tool—that can set you on the right track to achieving your personal goals and innermost desires.
