5 Killer Habits: The Game-Changer of Self-Help Book

In recent years, the publishing industry has seen a significant rise in self-help books. Many written and published by the hand of those who promise you a happy life, the only caveat – live a soulless one to accumulate wealth and then you will be happy.

Some may find this trade valid, but the author of 5 killer habits – Sree Krishna Saleem begs to differ.

He rebelled against the idea of sacrificing your life to stay in the rat race, advocating instead for habits that nurture both personal fulfillment and societal impact.

This is what sets the international bestseller apart from all the other books you’d find on the shelves around the world.

It is scientifically proven that 8 hours of sleep is necessary for adults, followed by waking up with the Sun. A head start to your day may not seem so significant till you realize that multiple studies on this topic have proven this habit to be the top indicator of success.
2. Become A Hero: As social being, humans derive purpose through connections. Giving back to others, fills us with a sense of contentment. This book reflects that idea in a way that inspires you to be there for others.
3. Be a Dromomaniac: Derived from the Greek dromos (running) and mania, dromomania is the urge to wander and explore. Becoming a Doromomaniac pushes you to step out of your usual constrains and teaches you to rely on yourself. The author shares personal anecdotes to paint the picture for the reader and understand what they’re missing out on if they aren’t an avid solo traveler yet.

5. Stay Curious: The antidote to this stupidity is curiosity. Learning new things and unlearning untruths is the backbone of personal development. Staying curious, asking questions, and having an open mind makes you bullsh*t repellant.
