Produktbeschreibung

Will a deep appreciation of wisdom lead to more happiness, flourishing, and success in life?

Why is America increasingly plagued by tribalism, elitism, materialism, and ME-ism?

What do philosophy, psychology, and personal growth have to say about wisdom?

Are the Bible and other religious texts legitimate and useful sources of human wisdom?

Though powerful and beautiful, philosophy has typically discouraged many readers who find it difficult, abstract, and boring. Moreover, modern psychology and age-old personal growth principles are given a bad name by many social media personalities who oversimplify them in an effort to make money.

• What is wisdom, how can it help me, and is this book authentic, reliable and useful ?

Four-time author Jason Merchey believes wisdom can be developed and acquired, and improving your understanding of wisdom will certainly lead to living a better life! Wisdom is one of humankind's oldest and most prized virtues, yet it is not much respected nowadays. . .

This new book has the potential to assist readers to live a life that harnesses the power of philosophy, critical thinking, and applied psychology. These secular sources of wisdom are not as complicated as they may seem, and indeed are road maps to a better life.

• Greater wisdom leads to improved personal growth, happiness, and success.
• Wisdom is not simple or plug-and-play, but it will yield its secrets to those who love it.
• In fact, the word philosophy is Greek for "the love of wisdom."

Wisdom is a comprehensive, transparent exploration of ancient and intriguing concepts combined with critical thinking, compassion, and other aspects of wisdom. Brimming with examples of psychological principles, careful analysis, and insightful quotes from many cultures and civilizations, it provides a basis for authentic intellectual, emotional, spiritual and moral growth.

The author deftly combines digestible psychological research findings, compelling personal stories, and useful quotations about wisdom.

Anyone aiming to build a life of value-one that yields purpose and happiness-should consider wisdom to be their basis. Wisdom has been one of humanity's highest aspirations for millennia.

Jason Merchey has dealt with mental illness most of his life, but also earned a master's degree in clinical psychology and trained as a psychotherapist. No stranger to "the big questions" and the difficulty of life, he has studied wisdom, values and virtues for twenty years.

In addition to personal benefits, this book sheds light on some of America's significant social problems. The great philosopher Socrates himself knew that ancient Athens, Greece was in serious trouble. If we were all wiser and we had more enlightened and humane priorities, many of the problems that mark communities and nations would give way to more love, fellowship, and prosperity.

One cannot buy wisdom per se, but investing in this affordable book provides a refreshing opportunity for self-improvement and intellectual growth. It has the potential to assist you to make wisdom your greatest strength!
