‘Yanga Unplugged’ blends in human stories while talking about importance of action
Upasana Kaura
If you want to achieve something, get up and take action, begin doing, rather than just thinking and making plans about it. This is the crux of YANGA Unplugged (Passionpreneur Publishing) by Prema Patel recently out on the bookshelves.
It is not just another run-of-the-mill self-development book. For, the author here doesn’t dictate a reader chapter after chapter on how to run his life, rather he tries to send his messages through his own struggles and challenges. He shares his own stories on resilience and decision-making along with practical guidance for growth courage and purposeful action. And it is these stories from the author’s life that make abstract principles feel human and worth following.
Action with clarity is important for progress, no amount of dreaming about it will give you results, says Patel. Indecision keeps people “stuck,” while action, even if it is a very small step, even if it isn’t perfect, propels one forwards towards success. And builds self-confidence.
Don’t Wait for Perfect Time
The author has repeatedly talked about not delaying decisions or waiting for a “perfect” timing to start. Start even if you are not fully ready, and you will see clarity emerge with time, he stresses. So don’t feel stagnated, get up and act.
Along with conceptual wisdom, the book also offers practical tools like how to handle your mental and emotional energy as a resource to be used at opportune times wisely as it helps builds energy (energy budgeting and amplifying). It talks of using ancestral and family wisdom to cultivate purpose and resilience. Internal clarity and sustainable habits are as important as setting goals, says the author.
Though the target readership of this book seems senior leaders and entrepreneurs, its messages are well applicable to anyone seeking clearer direction in life — young professionals, creative founders, or mid-career individuals at a crossroads.
YANGA Unplugged is a motivational and practical self-development book that encourages readers to stop overthinking, embrace action, and lead with intention.
So if you are seeking motivation to act, are struggling with indecision or self-doubt, go grab a copy of Yanga Unplugged.
