It is said that hard work, passion, determination and perseverance can lead an individual to success and enable him or her to reach great heights.

'Parishram', a novel based on true events by Rahul Tiwari, talks about these necessities in life, which can help anyone to reach great heights.

This inspirational novel explores the journey of Kunal through difficult paths in order to see the light of success at the end.

He teaches us not to give up in life no matter how bleak and complicated the situation is.

Parishram or hard work definitely brings positivity and happiness in life and the amount of effort one puts today will decide how much success he or she will get in future.

How Kunal survived in his hard times? How his father acted as his only guardian and guide from his birth? What are the golden rules that Kunal asks to follow?

All the answers to these questions can be found by the readers in the course of the novel.

The names of the chapters are chosen carefully since they highlight the content of each chapter.

Indeed, hard work brings joy at the end and in Kunal’s life too, he is blessed with a supportive wife and two lovely daughters who like angels have shown the right path to him and will continue to do so in future as well.

The novel is written quite systematically in a crisp language that will enable the readers to understand the underlying emotions, struggles, pain and ultimately the joy of success.

Rahul Tiwari concludes his book with a motivational speech by Kunal that is worth reading and worth appreciating.

Life is never a bed of roses, as Kunal puts it.

Difficulties, problems will arise, and we need to find out the solution every time by believing in ourselves and our abilities.

After a great storm, one is bound to see the light and till then one must not lose hope.

Parishram is a must-read for all since we all need encouragement and motivation at some point in our lives.
