The Brilliant First Year – A Fresher’s Pocket Book
The Brilliant First Year is meant for both form four leavers waiting to join university and also first year students in Kenyan universities. The book is based on a firsthand account of the author, as a student himself, and as a university lecturer.
It is meant to demystify and eliminate the confusion in the mind of a secondary school leaver and freshman about the academic and social life in universities in Kenya. This book is NOT about career advice but rather about building excellence among university students regardless of their diverse academic paths. While not purporting to cover all aspects of student life, the book covers a wide array of topical issues affecting the ordinary first year student in a local university including but not limited to settling in the university as a new student, diligence in studies, campus friendships and relationships, social media use, physical fitness, finances among others.

-How to overcome negativity
-How to stop overthinking
-Why comparison kills love
-How to use your fear
-Why you can’t find happiness by looking for it
-How to learn from everyone you meet
-Why you are not your thoughts
-How to find your purpose
-Why kindness is crucial to success
-And much more…Shetty grew up in a family where you could become one of three things—a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. His family was convinced he had chosen option three: instead of attending his college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk’s path to share his experience and wisdom with others. Heavily in debt, and with no recognizable skills on his résumé, he moved back home in north London with his parents.
