Stop Reading the News When I once finished reading the book “The Art of Thinking Clearly,” I became interested in other works by Rolf Dobelli. His (for me) first aforementioned book that I read quite appealed to me. Written clearly, dynamically, argumentatively and insightfully, it prompted me to think about what logical errors I make…

You know, I truly adore Haruki Murakami. Really, I do. I love his writing style, how you need to “push through” the first 20 or so pages of each of his books, how his characters are so imperfect, how each book, in its own way, tries to touch upon the meaning of life, whether…
Uh, I wasn’t sure what to think when I decided to review this… Should I treat it as a mini-dictionary, a vitamin encyclopedia, a cookbook, a guide, a nutritio…nutri…nuvrti…uh, a health/nutrition guide? But, as you know, there are no rules when it comes to my reviews, so let’s just call this “literary work” very…

The book’s central message is powerful and liberating…
Ikigai is one of those terms (or, more accurately, concepts) that’s difficult to directly translate, similar to expressions like “maktub“, “raison d’être“, or “flow“. However, if we were to attempt a translation, it could be described as “joy due to continuous engagement“. Essentially, it refers to something akin to the meaning of our existence,…
This book and I go way back… there’s a lot of history there. How much, I wonder… about seven or eight years? Maybe a year more? When I first saw the book “Way of the Peaceful Warrior”, its title (including the cover) caught my attention, as did some quotes from the book on the…
That Damned Perfume “Let me guess, same modus operandi?” “Yes, sir…” “No deviation? At least some new lead?” “No, sir…” “Damn it…”, I quietly cursed, lighting a cigarette. I inhaled once and held it for about ten seconds before slowly releasing it through my nose. I’m about 15 meters away. I started walking, one foot…
