“Lessons from the Wild” was written by Shayamal Vallabhjee, a new age entrepreneur, lecturer and sports and exercise scientist. Vallabhjee works with such clients as Wimbledon and US Open doubles champions Mahesh Bhupathi and Leander Paes, the Indian Davis Cup team and business leaders in Europe, India and Africa.
“Lessons from the Wild is the first book of its kind that takes simple life lessons like courage, persistence and uses unique animal stories from the wild to exemplify that lesson,” said Vallabhjee. “Lessons from the Wild will make an excellent gift for any person needing some light reading, college students, children and business people looking for alternate motivational sources.”
Lessons and animals that are discussed in the book include fearlessness (the story of the honey badger), teamwork (the story of snow geese), courage (the story of the bottlenose dolphin), independence, the story of the anaconda), effort (the story of the beaver), compassion (the story of the African elephant)
Mahesh Bhupathi, the Wimbledon, U.S. and French Open doubles champion, wrote the foreword to Lessons from the Wild, saying, “Lessons from the Wild opened my mind to a whole new world -- a world were self-belief, preparation, confidence, determination, integrity and trust take on new meaning.”
Wrote 1996 Olympic bronze medalist Leander Paes of Lessons from the Wild, “As an athlete, the animal instinct is the most important ingredient - the ability to understand your opponent, be in-tune with the elements, recognize an opportunity or push your body and mind beyond its barriers. Lessons from the Wild highlights this wild, natural instinct which, when coupled with intelligence, is very potent.”
Said U.S. and French Open doubles champion Max Mirnyi of the book, “Lessons from the Wild is an all-inspiring account of useful life material. I’m positive that anyone who opens up and reads through these pages will find both useful and very encouraging material throughout the entire book. Shayamal has made a lot of input in my career and I’m sure through this book, he will help you as well.
