“There are a lot of people with a lot of money but money is all they have. It’s very inspiring to see how many people want to be the heroes of their lives, how many people want to grow and rise above their circumstances. One of the keys to my longevity is that I want to help people, I don’t just write books but I am putting down the information that is not superficial but really creates change,” he said, pointing out that one hour a day, if utilised in the manner that he has put forth in his new book, can change lives. He said he wrote “The 5 AM Club” for over four years because he wanted it to be a beautiful and powerful book. “I wanted every line to be hand crafted and so I put my heart and soul into it.”

Although a phenomenon today, Sharma had self-published “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari”, and at a bookshop met a publisher from HarperCollins, who then acquired the book and published it globally. That changed his life and Sharma said that it is love that keeps him going; the more he works with love, the more he is able to connect with people.
