How members benefited from joining Awaken Book Club.

"Thank you for the warm welcome and for giving me the opportunity to be able to participate and network in today’s Awaken Book Club today. Regarding the book, I relate to the idea that we all should focus on what truly is important to us and prioritize on that one thing. And the fact that we had a sharing session, helped with the retention and better understanding of the book. I also truly enjoyed the lively discussions that was held; even though we had only 4-5 members today we manage to explore different aspects of the book. Personally, the club has motivated me to reflect deeply on the ideas presented in the book; while retaining it better because we share our own interpretations of the different ideas; so it allows me different aspects that I can apply in my own life. I also enjoyed the sense of community and the shared learning so I’d definitely recommend the book club to anyone who loves meaningful conversations and personal growth through reading. Looking forward to the next meetup and thanks for inviting me."

Alex

"The most enjoyable aspect of the meetup was the depth of the discussions. It was incredibly enriching to dive into complex ideas and themes from the books we read, all within a supportive and engaging community.

Personally, the meetup has been tremendously beneficial. It has not only broadened my reading horizons but also enhanced my critical thinking skills. Additionally, it provided a great opportunity to network with individuals who are equally passionate about personal and professional development.

I would definitely recommend our meetup to anyone interested in books that foster personal growth and professional insights. It's a wonderful platform to learn, share, and connect with thoughtful and inspiring individuals.

The Awaken Book Club is a vibrant community that challenges and enriches its members intellectually. I'm looking forward to our next session! Thank you for making such a meaningful space possible!"

“I was being able to "complete" a book in a single setting and hearing the learnings from other participants. There are a lot of books that i am interested in, but don't have much time to pick up multiple books at once. So based on reading a few chapters and hearing the insights of others – I can make a decision on the spot if this book can help me in my gaps (based on where i am currently at in my own business). I would recommend Awaken Book Club to avid readers that are looking to explore books or self-help in this area.”

Jaime

"I like when everyone present their perspective after reading, might be more to take when could discuss it if time is enough. Personally for me benefit to gain perspective and faster to get summary for one book in 1 day. The other benefit get to know and book title to read as well. I will recommend Awaken Book Club to friends who like to read."

Rudy

"I think overall the whole general concept and idea of the book is quite sound and applicable. I liked the networking part the most. Actually, I'm an introvert, but the networking went well. I will definitely recommend Awaken Book Club to especially those who are keen to develop themselves.”

Keith

"I enjoyed being able to concurrently read different parts of the book and learn from others to complete the book in a quick way. The passage I read is quite timely and it made me realize what I need to focus on and do right now! I would definitely recommend Awaken Book Club to others!”

"A community where we can learn from each others. Even though all of us read the same book, the realizations differ from person to person, offering diverse perspectives. So the book club allows me to learn not only from the book, but also from the other people.

It's a great place for learning from experience sharing, making like-minded friends, and expanding our networks. I definitely recommend Awaken Book Club to others interested in books."

Knowledge Sharing: Offering insights that can be applied to my business, enhancing both operational strategies and mindset.

Networking Opportunities: Engaging with like-minded individuals in the book club, fostering conversations that extend beyond the meetings.

Continuous Learning: Acknowledging that knowledge sharpens the mind like a knife. Frequent learning keeps entrepreneurs ahead, potentially tenfold, in their respective fields.

Would recommend Awaken Book Club to anyone looking to network and boost their communication skills!"

"At Awaken Book Club, I enjoyed the great idea to share the key takeaways from the chapters read by each one of us. It helps to go through a book in less time and practice our speaking skills. It benefits me to understand a book's summary from other's perspective and share mine on stage. I would surely recommend others to join the club."

Priyanshu

"I liked how the members shared their takeaway points with everyone because it's always nice to learn from other people. The book Shoe Dog is a good reminder to know when to back off and when to keep persisting, despite naysayers. I would recommend Awaken Book Club to others!"

Christina

"What I enjoyed most is to hear and listen to others sharing about the book. I feel benefited from listening to their sharing and also it gives me the opportunity to step out of my comfort zone meeting new people. I will recommend Awaken Book Club to people who are also keen in reading."

Jian Li

"I really enjoyed the experience of reading and discussing in a small group setting. It was meaningful to be able to share our thoughts in a safe space, and the place was super cozy too! Would recommend the Awaken Book Club to others who are interested in entrepreneurship, books, or both."

Victoria

"Felt the session was great, the vibes was chill, really a good place to read and listen to different views. Personally for me, sometimes when I read, my mind tend to float around, the book club really "force" me sit down and read the book. Really would recommend people to join the Awaken Book Club, especially if they have the same problem as me."

Hong Liang

"Enjoyed sharing the takeaways from the book and listening to different perspectives, how each of us can apply these take aways to personal lives. Reading a book together in a short period of time, sharing helps to organise the thoughts and application in daily lives at work, study and personal lives. I will recommend Awaken Book Club to someone who loves to read and share their thoughts.”

"It was really interesting for me as i could make new connections and improve my communication skills (which I believe I needs improvement at). So I decided to join the book club with my friend. Personally, reading habit is something which I have been trying to build since a very long time but I still haven’t succeeded it yet. In today’s book club, i was able to almost two chapters within 30 mins, which I feel very satisfied of myself today. At many points of reading today, I was able to connect with the author personally. This give me a spark for reading more. I have heard about the pleasure in reading a lot, but today when I was able to connect with the author personally at some point, I could feel that feeling. I definitely recommend this book for others. The topic discussed is something which we all need to know and which we all can relate. Thank you so much for organising this book club and it was truly a wonderful experience."

Loki

"I thoroughly enjoyed our book club experience! It provided a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for reading and learning. The discussions were thought-provoking, insightful, and respectfully challenging. Beyond the book discussion, the club offered a valuable platform for networking, personal growth, and community building. I formed meaningful connections with fellow book lovers and I highly recommend Awaken Book Club to anyone seeking intellectual stimulation, social connections, and a supportive environment for exploring new ideas."

Anjali

"I enjoyed meeting new people and the book-reading + sharing part. It enabled me to meet like-minded entrepreneurs and allowed me to practise my public speaking. I definitely would recommend Awaken Book Club to others."

"It helped me to connect with new people and also get book suggestions based on their learnings which is a great way to decide which book to read next. Sharing our key learnings with other members also helps in improving public speaking and communication skills. Reading with a group of people also motivated me to read within the timeline and remain focused on reading. If I find any book lover, I would definitely be happy to recommend them to Awaken Book Club!"

Jayasty

"It was such a refreshing way to spend the afternoon, and I loved how open and reflective the space was. I really loved hearing everyone’s take on the chapters, it made the book feel more alive and personal. The mix of reading and sharing was really grounding and it gave me a chance to appreciate many different perspectives :) and yes I would definitely recommend Awaken Book Club for anyone looking to further develop themselves!"

Ravindi

"⁠I like the session that everyone shares their summary and thoughts on the chapters that they have been assigned to read. As all the attendees have different backgrounds. With different perspectives, it makes the content of this book more interesting and alive! And I’m glad to meet new people who share the same interests. Just spending 2-3 hours to have a brief idea of a book, it's really good! I would definitely recommend Awaken Book Club to others!"

Pin Chiao

How members benefited from joining Awaken Book Club.

"Sharing from the group, especially the fun fact part! Though, maybe this only works for a group who have met for the first time, hearing their takes from the books were interesting too. ⁠Hearing people’s thoughts, perspectives and experiences - keep my mind open. Sharing back my key takeaways is a good practice to continuously hone my speaking skills as well. I would recommend Awaken Book Club to others if I find that they enjoy reading!"

Jamie

"The part I enjoyed the most was the networking session with amazing like-minded people who are into personal development. Love all the sharings from each individual on each chapter too -- so many to digest on too. It grows me so much more as I get to share what I read and taking the time to note down the next actionable steps for myself. I would absolutely recommend Awaken Book Club to others!"

Adora

I enjoyed sharing the insights and key takeaways for our assigned chapters. I also liked how easy-going discussions were where we could chip in our ideas anytime we wanted and it was a casual atmosphere. I got to meet people from different countries and enjoyed their different perspectives. I also liked how open and honest the conversations were. Some of the conversations were very intriguing and I got to meet authentic and wise individuals. The atmosphere is very easy-going and welcoming. Additionally, the provision of the book of the month and the free admission makes it not only more appealing but also allows people from all backgrounds to come and socialise. I definitely would recommend Awaken Book Club to others!
