      More of Nietzsche’s visceral distain for Socialism and the harm it does to the individual:
      Socialism itself can hope to exist only for brief periods here and there, and then only through the exercise of the extremest terrorism. For this reason it is secretly preparing itself for rule through fear and is driving the word “justice” into the heads of the half-educated masses like a nail so as to rob them of their reason… and to create in them a good conscience for the evil game they are to play.”
      -Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human
      “Socialism the logical conclusion of the tyranny of the least and the dumbest”
      -Friedrich Nietzsche, The Will To Power
      “Socialism is the phantastic younger brother of despotism, which it wants to inherit. Socialism wants to have the fullness of state force which before only existed in despotism. ... However, it goes further than anything in the past because it aims at the formal destruction of the individual ...”
      -Friedrich Nietzsche, The Will To Power

      No offense, while you might be right about Nietzsche and his philosophy-your business advice is flawed. If you want to become a millionaire, the best way is working hard, budgeting very carefully every day, and slowly but surely accumulating wealth-not entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is a risk-you could make a lot of money, but you could also go bankrupt as many small businesses do follow this route. If you don't like your 9-5 job-then I would recommend just not caring as much about being a millionaire or find a new job...

    It’s interesting how many self help videos have a strong entrepreneurial bent. It makes sense that entrepreneurs are disseminators of such information but for the non-entrepreneurial worker you have to reimagine and recontextualize the advice and examples given to make it actionable. Not a critique of the material herein but rather an observation of how it can be used.

    We are all one with everything and will transform back into everything. People, trees, squirrels; We are all but stardust; part of the eternal beauty & oneness of the universe.

It is the burden that we are born with, but in the same token, living that journey to finding your reason / why, is what makes it an incredible experience.

Besides they were getting to be time consuming. With this channel, and many like it, I get the infromation I want in short, sharp and to the point, with miniscule promotion.

    Never disappoints. I will say we wouldn't be praising him for his imsights and concepts had he found love and companionship. In losing his head he would've been just another intellectual sap struggling to improve upon his predecessors. Lucky for us his deprivation is our gain. Newton was very much the same as was Kant and Schopenhauer. A virtual philosophical family tradition. Without their self mastery we would have fallen short on psychology as well as all the social sciences. Cannot have much of a future for mankind without self mastery . Somebody has to make the sacrifices and do the heavy lifting.

    • @JoBlakeLisbon
      @JoBlakeLisbon 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nietzsche was not an aesthetic. He basically disdained aestheticism, describing it as only potentially useful for artists, using the example of Flaubert as the archetypal aesthetic artists. He also wrote in recognition of the powerful and artistic types had an overabundance of energy, some of which could easily be used in pleasurable distraction.
      Nietzsche own private life was largely one of failed attempts to pursue the object of his desire. He never ascribed to aestheticism at all himself, indeed pursuing the object of your desires and failing isn't aesthetic, it's just romantic failure. He actually is quite condemnatory of aestheticism as falling in line with Eastern, Buddhist passivity - exactly the contrary attitude to the striving 'Will to Power' which was the centre point of Nietzsche's work.
      Kant's aestheticism was largely based on his unique personality type. He was basically an odd individual whose philosophy has no practical implications for anyone in the real world, or even in discussions within legal systems. Outside the branch of philosophy his work is irrelevant.
      Newton is probably the purest aesthetic. He is a somewhat mysterious character in that sense. It's worth noting though that Englishmen of that period could not, without quite some charm and time, indulge in extra-marital sex, unless it was with a prostitute. It's very possible that his aestheticism was more about eschewing the responsibilities of marriage which would have interfered with his scholarship. It also wasn't and still isn't uncommon for homosexuals to eschew marriage and join either the priesthood or the academy.
      There are just as many intellectual and social giants who have had very colourful and dynamic personal lives, having marriages, children, in some cases affairs, lovers etc. Aestheticism is no measure of the likelihood of genius - Picasso, Shakespeare, Einstein even fatefully Turing, were not aesthetics by any stretch of the imagination. One might even describe all three as having particularly colourful private lives.

You don't necessarily need to over indulge in your appetites to get a better perspective of them. I meant anesthetic in the sense that they definitely saw more potential and satisfaction in intellectual pursuits than settling for a conventional lifestyle. Women, good ( submissive) wives, were the rule not the exception in those days . The existential movement was about self discovery and mastery and required a more in depth investigation of societal norms. Basically they we're conducting experiments with themselves as the source of empirical study. Am i better or worse. Am i making progress. Have i contributed to humanity.

      We cannot do everything because we are not gods, but we can choose and determine everything, including what we cannot change. A father who has lost his daughter cannot go back in time, but he can choose how to live with that fact.
      Our freedom is conditioned, that is, we exercise it within certain conditions, but it is within these conditions that we become free and self-determine.
      Many people confuse freedom with omnipotence. our freedom, like our love, is limited, but the fact that there is a limit does not mean that freedom does not exist, on the contrary, if we recognize that we have a limit on our freedom, we are already recognizing that we have freedom. But everything can be expanded. Today I myself have greater freedom than I had ten years ago.

    There is a perfect sinthesys between the path of surrender and self mastery. Taking full responsibility over ones life is not different from surrendering to a higher power.
    Depending on the temperament, it is wise to stick to one side thoroughly until this paradox is revealed though. Follow your gut, that is Life itself speaking, then make effort to stick with what you hear inside, until the gut-will becomes one with your own self. Depends how we approach this realignment. If we focus more on the guidance of the gut/higher mind/God, there goes the path of surrender, if more on the effort to resist the opposing force, there's the path of self mastery. In the end we see there are no two of the wills, there's only a Will, which is one with us and at the same time integraly one with life as a whole. That's why Schopenhauer expressed that we have no real choice. It was just an expression of this understanding...
    Again, there's no contradiction but it has to be undividedly seen within our own experience.

    Free-will has never meant the ability to change oneself entirely at the drop-of-a-hat.
    It simply means one is free to choose to follow or to ignore one's own instincts and desires.
    Self-control (or will-power) is the exercise of control by means of your intelligence(or Reason) over your short-term emotions and desires,
    I'm sure this was already understood long before Nietzsche came along -- see Stoicism, for example.

    I'm only 3:35 minutes in and this sounds a lot like western individualism. I guess maybe because that's what Nietzsche wrote about. Thing is, what's wrong with living your life with the goal of making your community happy? Sounds noble to me, so long as you're happy about it. Japanese culture, although not without its faults, focuses more on living as part of a community who works together to lead a fulfilling life of kindness and selflessness. To me, that's quite good.
    The ideal thing, I feel, is a balance between individualism and collectivism. I think this western individualism that prevails young minds today is part of what's giving everyone anxiety. The idea that we all must work hard to achieve our dreams and have expensive BMWs, large houses, a beautiful wife and at least 2 kids. We have to realize that's a very persistent myth. That's not what real life is like. Real life is about doing whatever you want with your life. You contribute to your global, national, or local communities by working on something, and in return you do whatever else you want with your spare time and money. If you want to be a freelancer because you prefer that freedom, great. If you want to start a business because you prefer that power and responsibility, awesome. Pick what you want because that's what you enjoy and not because that's what you feel pressured to do. That's all I wanted to say.
    Don't rely on other people's opinion of what you want to do, to decide what you want to dedicate your life to. It's your life you're investing.

    Your videos are helping me to change my life. My wife and I quit drinking just over 6 weeks ago. Been going to recovery group at the Christian chruch. Your vids/Nietzsche's ideas feel more empowering by taking control of your decisionmaking and self discipline rather than just submitting to the idea that i am a life long f up with no possibility of fixing my self so i have to give up control and do God's will. Can I just attend Christian services participate, absorb the messages and the positivity and still know in my mind that there other answers that seem more empowering?

      Congratulations on staying sober for 6 weeks Gerald! That’s an amazing achievement to decide and follow through on. There is one part of your comment that concerned me. “I am a life long f up with no possibility of fixing myself so I have to give up control and follow God’s will.” The first step of change is acknowledging you have a problem. You know you’ve made mistakes and some may not be reversible. That doesn’t mean you decide you can’t make a good decision. You learn from them and grow into the person you want to be. I think you can find solace in religion but it won’t make you whole. This video was all about taking control of your life. You believe in the Christian God which gave man free will to follow as they chose. Yes, the Bible talks of submitting to God but why would you be given free will if God didn’t want you to have it? Gerald, I think you can have control of your life and make the decisions which make you happy. There is nothing wrong with taking the information you feel is “right” from any religion. Many religions have wise proverbs or rules to live by. I’m sorry I’ve written you a whole paragraph. I don’t know why I did but I hope you feel more confident in yourself.

      Jesus Christ is God . If you believe you are stronger without God that's Satan deceiving. When you are sick or have a tragedy beyond your control you may realize that you need the Lord. Read the King James Bible and develop a personal relationship with Christ if you want to be alive spiritually. Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

    Nietzsche is a sadly misunderstood philosopher. He was beloved by both Mussolini and the Nazis, but he was strongly opposed to nationalism and the concepts of the übermensch and the herd is entirely based on individuals.

    • @Revolusionist321
      @Revolusionist321 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Nationalism Is an ultimate expression of Self-mastery.
      Only a united group of people joined for a commen cause,can thrive as a community. On a small scale we can call it "tribalism" and on a scale of while nation we can call it -nationalism.
      Also,being nacionalist can mean to manu people different things due to differences in a way of life that people have world-wide. German nationalism, doesnt mean the same as what it means to be a nationalist from my prospective. Maybe Germans would use similar words to describe it and maybe all nations would so some could call it "humanism" or "humanytism" but its not in its essence,as far as what it means to be nationalist for my country.

    The Will to Power is the conflict within oneself between several wills that drive every action and decision made. Even when self destructive , this is still within the Will to Power. It's not a positive or a negative thing. Its said that even Rocks and Animals possess a Will to Power. In short, the concept is a lot more complex than how you put it in the first minute of the video. Good effort nonetheless

    I was 14 years old when I've read " Thus Spoke Zarathustra" for the first time, and over the past 50 years, at least, ones a year I take the book to read some pages again. Unfortunately, there are not many people who have read Nietzsche especially nowadays. For example you use the term 'slave morality' 90% of the people around you don't understand what you talking about. Just say to someone: Most of the bad politicians ( like Trump) come to power because the majority of the people is living in a slave-morality-bubble and critical thinking is not their habit. I even got called racist by using the term.

    • @racheld1809
      @racheld1809 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Critical Thinking must not be within ur habits as u assume someone will be in a slave morality bubble; why? Trump was a bad politician to u and great for others, that doesn't mean he was in a self slave morality bubble. Unfortunately reading ur thought made me think how sad u r that ur unable to achieve self critical thinking. Ignorance is a bliss!
