What if the answers we seek in life aren’t about changing our circumstances, but changing the way we look at them?
The Right Lens: Life Themes to Pause, Reflect and Begin Again by Satyajit Senapati is a deeply personal and thought-provoking book that invites readers to reflect on how they view success, setbacks, identity, decision-making, freedom, and more. Drawing from a difficult period in his own life, the author unpacks nine essential life themes that quietly shape how we live, lead, and grow at work and beyond.
Rather than offering advice or quick fixes, The Right Lens gently nudges the reader to ask meaningful questions and embrace a more realistic, compassionate view of themselves and others. Through honest storytelling, relatable experiences, and introspective writing, the book encourages a shift from external definitions of success to a more grounded, personal understanding of fulfillment and clarity.
Each chapter functions as a mirror, helping readers examine their inner world and develop a new perspective that fits their context, values, and aspirations. Whether you’re navigating a career transition, recovering from a setback, or simply looking for a deeper connection with yourself, this book serves as a trusted companion on the journey.
Published by Rupa Publications, The Right Lens stands out in its simplicity, sincerity, and quiet power. It reminds us that transformation doesn’t always begin with action; sometimes, it starts with seeing things differently.
