Short Witty Stories to Open Your Mind

De: J.H. Pii

Narrado por: J.H. Pii

Learn how you can benefit from philosophy without boring your brains out and struggling to understand obtuse and annoying sentences.

This book is meant as a short, coffee-table-style book to bring you neat and entertaining stories to think about. While if you find a certain story and topic interesting, you will discover what we have found out so far as a people.

You will hunt for apples in an unkempt garden and think about spirituality and science. You will take a dubious happiness operation and gauge if you are happier. You will struggle to find yourself on a progressively damaged boat. Then, an enchanted book will lead you to a museum about free will and memories. Finally, you will know of a farmer who desperately needed glasses and was wrongly assured of his milking cow’s location. While you, likewise, will question your assumptions.

My goal is ambitious. For one, I want you to be entertained and also to gain actual benefits in your life. Thought experiments, or as I like to call them thought stories, entertain you. But, they also provoke you to think and, in turn, reorient. I, like many others, was lost and needed guidance. I found philosophy, and that made me find my way. I will promise you that this will help you find your way.

In this book, I will take you to the next level through witty stories. You will become an actual happier person through actual practical ways. Are your actions and choices yours? The answer might surprise you.

This book is a quick pickup to discover and meant to entertain in less than five minutes and help you discover and change yourself for the better. I feel your pain if you have tried other content before that would constitute self-help. This is a book that will present you with things that will make you improve yourself in your own way, not outright tell you what is wrong and what to do about it.

So, if you want to make yourself the person you envy today, then scroll up and listen by clicking the "buy now". I sincerely hope you will enjoy.

My New Favorite Listen!

I thoroughly enjoyed ‘5 Thought Experiments to Change your Perspective.’ D.H. Pii’s audiobook is composed in a clear, concise style, and his narration is perfectly conversational as he leads you along a deep discussion that shifts your way of thinking. It is my new favorite listen, as it is a book I will go back to again and again. It is perfect for the new arrival to philosophy, as well as for the Ph.D.

This book asks you to think about things you think you know, and to extrapolate from one idea to the next. The chapters are layered and connect back to one another, giving an insight into how these ideas have preoccupied humanity throughout the ages. Through the use of short stories and examples, he introduces the reader to various thinkers along the way and does so by interweaving eastern and western thought. The teachings of the Buddha are placed on the same level as Kant. With topics like the spirit and science, whether or not you are happy and what happiness really is, identity, free will, and knowledge you go romping through a range of ideas that leave you questioning everything. Here’s a bit of advice; when listening, stop and contemplate what you just heard, and let your thoughts travel down the new paths.

The narration is delivered in a real cool Danish accent that lends the correct level of sophistication to a deep philosophical discussion. In short, your mind gets a workout, whether you’re on the treadmill, painting a ceiling, or commuting.

Mr. Pii, let me know when you’re hosting your next dinner party. I want an invitation to sit at your table and listen in on the conversation.

A profound listen

I found the insights in this audiobook to be deep and well thought out - I need to let this book sit in my mind to ruminate for some time, and then come back and listen again so it can sink in. Worth the listen.

Intriguing

Intriguing and thought provoking. JH Pii uses 5 simple thought exercises to help the listener understand not only basic philosophy , but perhaps themselves, as well. My favorite? The first chapter, The Invisible Gardener.

Excellent!

This was an entertaining listen which came as somewhat of a surprise. I was expecting a deep philosophical story that might lull me to sleep. It was however an entertaining listen that had me thinking and placing myself in the situations as well as trying to apply the examples to my life.
I believe anyone who listens openly will find some helpful information for self improvement.
The author did a nice job narrating his book.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for my unbiased review.

Bazinga

J. H. Pii states his ambitious goal is to entertain the reader while also providing actual benefits to their lives. I believe he has succeeded. I learned a few things and that is always a win in my eyes. This book was a fun listen and I would recommend it to anyone. The stories used to get you thinking were easy to follow and thought provoking. The author did a good job with the narration as well. I was sucked in and listened to this short book in one sitting. Grab this book you will not be disappointed.

Disclaimer: My enjoyment of the narrator is based on my listening speed. I only leave 5 stars for books I've listened to or will listen to multiple times.

I requested this book from the author, narrator, or publisher in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

An Abridged Wealth of Knowledge

To glean just a fraction of the philosophical information contained within this little book would take years, and that wouldn't even guarantee the reader's understanding. J. H. Pii has condensed all of this information into five, consumable chapters that even the layperson with a sliver of philosophical knowledge could understand. The book is well organized and well presented.

Great food for thought!

Very interesting perspectives on life. I especially enjoyed Pii's thoughts on happiness. The anecdotes were succinct, witty, and thought-provoking. I also loved the narrator’s accent.

Creating The Perfect Attitude To Life

Author J.H. Pii encapsulates five frequently advised personal development practices into a single compendium, then provides meaning to each with his own stories and illustrations.

While a perfect life is probably not attainable, a perfect attitude toward life’s ups and downs is. And these five Thoughts are the pathway to having a perfect attitude about life. Plus, these are seven of the easiest “rules” you’ll find for creating the satisfying and less-stressed life you deeply desire.

If everyone would read this book – and implement the Five Thoughts as described here – life would be a lot less stressful, kinder, and a more humane, peaceful and positive experience. Everyone wanting to experience this for themselves should buy and read this book, and then inculcate the Five Thoughts into their own lives.

Great Listen

These stories were very interesting and easy to understand. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to expand their thinking. J.H. Pii does a fine job of narrating his book. I received this audiobook in a promotion and this is my voluntary review.
