Assalamualaikum (to all Muslims).
Okay this book as you've seen in the title above, is entitle "JUST WHO WILL YOU BE" by Maria Shriver.
Who is she you asked? She is the niece of Jason F.Kennedy but she wasn't famous because of that. She actually built a name for herself in this big world where she used to work as a Correspondent with NBC news and than resigned in 2003 and now shes an author of five bestselling books. She lives, breathes, and writes in California.
This is the cover of the book for your reference.
As far as i see it, this book is worthy of the title ' NATIONAL BESTSELLER'. You wanna know why? Because when I read it, I felt like I was one of those people who seeks her advise. Yes it is a motivational book and the simplest one yet.
She talks more towards her thoughts about why people want her as a speaker and how she approached on doing it that moment. As that happened she created a nice poem that entitle " Just Who Will You Be", which consist a lot of motivational quote. She speaks the truth about life, about the choices that we have and how teenagers only think about the fame and fortune in life.

Here are some quotes that I truly love from this book :
" Fame isn't a goal worthy of your life "
" The only way you can come to feel worthy, and really good about yourself - the only way to find a life of meaning and joy - is to find your own voice, find your own path, follow your own heart, and live your own life, not an imitation of somebody else's "
" I hope I will encourage you to think about the unique person who you and only you are turning too"
" Fame's just a perception
An image, a role
But it isn't the truth
And it isn't your soul "
" I've also learned it's OKAY to change, sometimes it's not just okay, but MANDATORY.You can let go of some beliefs that may be served you well along the way, but just don't work for you anymore. We're supposed to grow and evolve. We have to give ourselves the permission and freedom to stay open to change."
May be for some of you it might be a bit cheesy but for me its A okay and it can be a second parent or may be a guidance counselor to you for what you've been through in your own life.For all that is worth it, take a few hours of your day just to read this book and it might give u big smile.
