In a period of uncertainty and continuous anxiety, books really helped Sunny Nandwani, Founder, Acuver Consulting, a supply chain management firm to remain constructive and keep focus going.
"Few ones I liked during lockdown were Tim Brown’s Change by Design, The Hard Thing about Hard Thing by Ben Horowitz, along with autobiographies of two of my favourite Indians - Mahatma Gandhi and Dr APJ Abdul Kalam," he told ET Panache.
For Nandwani, books have always been about broadening perspective towards life.
"Books allow me to answer questions and look around with an open mind. Mostly I try to manage to squeeze in seven to nine hours spread over a week. Most of my reading happens late in the night or first thing in the morning," he said.
Reading refreshes Nandwani. "I feel they (books) make me empathise and improve as a person. Inspiring reads keep me upbeat and motivated. For me, reading time is my time away from gadgets. I love the feel of flipping pages; swiping left, right is just not the same," he ended.

You know those fat books that have forever been on your reading list and shelf, but end up collecting dust due to your busy schedule. There's no time like the present to go back and finish those long reads.
The lockdown has left many of us with more time on our hands than we'd like, so why not make the most of it and turn the pages of a worthwhile read.
