New Delhi: Shamoly Khera a multi-faceted speaker, a TV presenter, producer, public speaker and speaking coach who has made her mark in the Indian media and TV industry. Khera is coming up with her latest book titled ‘Bedazzle’ where she answers several mind boggling questions that we come across in our daily lives but never really work towards them to find an answer.
Some of these questions include– ‘How one's childhood can have a deep impact on one's self-confidence?’, ‘What affects a person’s confidence adversely and why does that matter?’, ‘How do animals with lesser thinking capacity step out to hunt, deeply motivated, every single day, despite a previous failed attempt?’, ‘How a sportsperson performs repeatedly even after multiple failures?’, ‘Where does that confidence come from, despite of a past failure and what can we learn from this?’, and ‘Our environment can affect the way our confidence is built everyday?
Answers to these critical questions have the potential to change one’s life. However, most people are so busy in their daily lives that they do not really focus on them and continue the way they are going.
The book is published by Bloomsbury and is available in both Paperback and Kindle editions here. #BedazzleTheBook is also trending in the non-fiction pre-order lists.
“I have always been intrigued by what makes a person more confident than the others – and often you will notice that confidence has a deeper correlation to success than talent. This book is an exploration of what one can do to achieve a level of eternal confidence, by being able to create a stream of constant infinite confidence within, through practical insights,” says Khera.
Hailing from the field of medicine and with a special interest in neuroscience, Khera believes in backing every remark with apt research. “I believe in factual evidence and I avoid making a point until and unless strongly supported by relevant studies. Finding the missing link between a confident and an under-confident person, Bedazzle aims to stimulate the reader in understanding his own psyche of success. Each person’s disposition is different, and we all get affected by failures and success differently,” adds Khera.
Bedazzle deconstructs the core aspects of subconscious motivation in all such scenarios and handpicks the triggers to understand confidence at a deeper level so that anyone can use it to their best advantage. The book reveals multiple action plans that can aid a person in developing and maintaining consistent confidence, awakening deep motivation in self and actualizing one’s full self-potential. Bedazzle unravels the perceptions of the human mind and how we can rewire our inner programming to reinforce positive perceptions.
Bedazzle reveals the art and science of confidence in today’s world. The book puts a spotlight on how the human mind has the power to self-actualize its truest potential through self-evaluation, self awareness and reach heights of achievement. As they say that those who are truly awakened to their inner powers can truly Bedazzle.
Khera penned the book during the lockdown. “This idea came to me sometime last year but it fully caught steam only in the months of lockdown. Lockdown has provided many writers and artists the perfect environment for brewing ideas and giving them shape –for only in such dedicated environments do novel ideas thrive!’
She goes on to mention that self belief is most important for a person’s confidence. “Because what you believe about yourself to be true, turns out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, so believe carefully - and when you do, believe fully!’
Khera has had an illustrious career and been the face of various television networks, such as Zee, TLC, Colors and MBC and has devised multiple shows that impacted across cultures and continents.
Currently, she is the director at her content distribution house, One Take Media Co. With an unflinching passion for the field of neuroscience and performance psychology, she has founded 'Speak to Inspire Academy' - where she has coached hundreds of leaders to become impactful speakers and discover their authentic story.
