Aristotle is way overrated. He was wrong about many things - especially Plato's theory of forms and Politics. Aristotle's toxic thoughts about logic have destroyed mainstream mathematics which is now a full-blown cult. "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it” "It is the mark of an uneducated mind to entertain ill-formed concepts in the first place.” Introducing the notion of *axiom* into logic is something for which he should have been laughed to scorn.
1. Face your problems 2. Keep balance in your life. Strive for the golden mean, the middle. 3. You can learn something from anyone. Even if you disagree, keep the "debate" going while using active listening. 4. Choose your friends wisely, chose someone that elevates you and share the same values/ dreams as you. (3 different friend types. 1- Utility= Transactional friendships where you help your friend with a task and he will help you with another task. 2. Fun / Party friends. 3. Real friendship - you share their happiness and sadness empathetically. You want the best for them.) 5. Be truthful in life. 6. Daily improvements, be an eternal student and keep on learning and growing so you can reach your full potential. 7. Work on something you love or like, find your passion in life. As Steve Jobs said, you must love what you do to become great, because when it gets difficult you will push through. I am just using this comment for instant recall to improve retention of the info, so some stuff can be wrong.
1. Don't run away from your problems 2. Try to find the golden mean This is something that I realised yesterday myself, life indeed is all about balance between the extremes. Find that balance. 3. Live with dignity and grace 4. Be open to others' point of view Everyone has something to offer. An educated person realises this and tries to learn from everyone. One might not agree with 99% of what someone might say, but there is this 1% can be learnt from. 5. Have the right friends Aristotle says there are 3 types of friends, first useful in profession, second for pleasures, and the third is someone like you, someone who shares the same virtue and views as you, these types of friends last a lifetime. 6. Put truth before everything else 7. Maximize your potential "Happiness is not god-sent but comes as a result of virtue and some process of learning or training"
I was just listening to the audio on this video at work and had to check my phone at number 2 because I thought he said "Try to find the golden "Meme" . I was like ...... This man was wayyyyyyyy ahead of his time lol
Aristotle on Socialism (as he answers Plato, whose Republic advocated socialism): “What is common to the greatest number gets the least amount of care. People pay most attention to what is their own: they care less for what is common; or, at any rate, they care for it only to the extent to which each is individually concerned. Even when there is no other cause for inattention, people are more prone to neglect their duty when they think that another attending to it . .”
*Aristotle collectivism* was *socialism* point of view. *Plato Republic* was *Fascism* point of view. The Founding Fathers of America made their country a republic why when you pledge aligence to the flag it said Republic. Also America was Never truly a Free Government because those 2 choice are *Anarchy* or *Fascism. Fascism* is you giving up some of your freedom to live in a civil society vs Anarchy is lawlessness also Fascism has a bad wrap because of Hitler, but that's called *dictatorship* or *Tyrannical government* when it goes wild.
If a government is not socialist, then why have a government at all? Socialism is a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole. Any other form of government is tyranny. Capitalism is cruel and soulless. Communism and capitalism are more alike than different.
@@RealMathematician21stCentury It did in the sense that Hitler and fascists just misunderstood it`s meaning completely,same thing happened with Nietzsche but yeah Plato held no such conviction.
Glad to see the respect/admiration paid to perhaps the greatest thinker/scientist who ever lived, but, sorry he did not invent catharsis: It was an important aspect of Greek cultural life and Plato employs the concept extensively. Also, recent scholarship shows that the term really applied to comedy, not to “serious drama,” aka “tragedy.”
♡ I'm enjoying watching this video..to me it's a lesson to learn. It's giving me the strength 💪 of wisdoms and of Hope with great knowledge and, to be courageous and, not to be dismay or be afraid of today's ruff and tuff busy world Wow. AMEN to that. Yessir❗️
11:41 actually there is a controversy because if you digg up into the questionnaire, how the question was formulated and who answered it you will realize that many people who answered have nothing to do with the field and they answered that yes climat change is true but never got as asked if they consider that the human factor is the major cause. Bottom line is that the science isn't done by asking scientists that have nothing to do with the specific topic, via a poll, what they believe.
Yeah, but facts..... who needs them. Proving Plato correct in that the educated should rule their subject.... not those who don't know what they are talking about. I'm surprised in the day and age how many people are still spewing the man made climate change BS. Especially after all we (the real scientists who aren't bought and paid for by politicians) have done to debunk all the myths this guy spouted. It's crazy to still hear them, just like listening to flat earthers...
And, even if you asked the correct group, they have a vested interest these days in where the money comes from. The fact is that none of the models have ever been even remotely correct, and ignore many influences that are known to be strong causal influencers. The state of the science now is denial that we can model the climate effectively due to the complexity of the system. They also ignore that historically, warming preceded increased concentrations of greenhouse gases. And, most amazingly, it completely ignores the granularity of climate changes, such as coming out of an ice age. As long as there is money buying conclusions that allow the collection and concentration of power, science and truth will suffer.
I'm going to try to use reason on the 97% of scientists statement. In this context what is 100% of scientists, I consider myself a scientist but i wasn't asked. The fixed quantity here is papers sampled in a survey (which was not all the scientists in the world). The survey was flawed because it assumed that the scientist was in agreement even if no opinion was expressed in the paper.
Not only that, but we who do the work all know that majority consensus does not make a proof. Majority of society disagreed with Galileo. The majority of scientists disagreed with Oppenheimer and Einstein at some time. Science has never worked by majority rule. Quite often the majority is wrong. Especially when it's a flawed survey. Thank you for your comment.
That's a great point. I thought the video was great until this debate was brought up and portrayed believers as educated and superior by default, and deniers as necessarily inferior. Quality of citation matters and it gets tiring seeing papers, data etc. being used in a misleading way meant to sway the audience. I've seen compelling evidence that the subject is at the very least more complex and nuanced than it is portrayed in the news, and I don't think it's ever a good idea when topics are beyond questioning and debate. It is always, always worthwhile to revisit everything you think to be true and test the validity of it.
The more carbon dioxide there is in the atmosphere, the more it is absorbed by plants of every description - helping them to grow faster, better, and even under adverse conditions like limited water, extremely hot air temperatures, or infestations of insects and other pests. As trees, grasses, algae and crops grow faster and become healthier and more robust, animals and humans enjoy better nutrition on a planet that is greener and greener. CO2 is also a pollution fighter that reduces the harmful effects of ozone, nitrous oxides and other pollutants in the air, or too much nitrogen fertilizer in the soil.
If I think about ''then'' and ''now'' I feel like we are going backwards! All the greatness was ''then'' and not so much greatness ''now''. Such a shame!
Small correction. Eudamonia wasn`t something exclusive to Aristotle`s philosophy. Eudamonia is more so the final goal of any ancient greek philosophy. For example, eudamonia for epicurian philososphy is ataraxia and the rejection of the fear of death
Very glad to have the best videos from practical psychology and philosophy deeply involved how to recognize behaviors disorders personality I like practical one. God bless.
Yes, it's very wacky to claim that the majority should decide on matters. Herein is a contradiction because Aristotle claims to seek truth above all else and then claims the majority should decide. Chuckle.
Everyone should of course look for the truth... Then in that case you can go with the majority when deciding things.. otherwise who's truth are you going to listen to??
@@RealMathematician21stCentury it's one thing to seek truth but not everyone is going to agree with your truth... Hence going with the majority of what truth people have found

I feel the modern wisdom of the goal being happiness is far diluted and promotes indulgence, a heavy hand on the scale in one direction. We have a philosophy in our culture that focuses too highly on the moment and in the interest and of the highest possible glory with the smallest amount of effort - through consumption, with little regard for tomorrow. In a word, indulgence.
FN, I thought you died about 120 years ago. Good to know you are still around. And as always, Mr. Nietzsche, I very much appreciate your insight. I hope that nice list of philosophers you suggest be discussed inspires our friend at this channel.
Aristotle is also cockney rhyming slang for bottle. "Geyser ran away, must av lost his 'aris". A noteworthy achievement that the video somehow overlooked ;)
I was going to share this video because I think we NEED more Aristotle in the world today. HOWEVER, the example used about 'climate change deniers' put me off. The narrator CLEARLY is propagandizing here. Sickeningly NOT Aristotle. Pffft ... pathetic.
The Greeks Thales, Hippocrates, Pythagoras, Socrates, and Plato all traveled to Kemet, they studied at the temple-universities Waset and Ipet for more than 20 years
Philosophers become kings & kings become philosophers. Athens is a perfect example of the foundation of due process for it's citizens. You must 1st be charged with a crime. That's the 1st step. Nothing else matters.
Yes, since there is no sovereignty that does not reward those who obey it and punish the rebelliou an eternal sovereignty which is at the degree of absolute dominicality rewarding those who form a relation with it through belief and submit to its decrees, and its punishing rebellious disbelievers who deny its proud sovereignty will be in a manner fitting for its mercy and beauty, its dignity and glory. Thus, the Names Sustainer of All the Worlds and Just Monarch reply to our question. Also, we see as clearly as the sun, as daylight, a general mercy and all-embracing compassion and munificence on the face of the earth. For example, every spring that mercy adorns all the fruit-bearing trees and plants like houris; it fills their hands with every sort of fruit and they hold them out to us, saying: "Help yourselves, and eat!" So does it give us sweet, healing honey to eat from the poisonous bee, and dresses us in the softest silk by means of a handless insect. It deposits for us in a handful of tiny seeds pounds of food, making those tiny stores into reserve supplies. Such a mercy and compassion surely would not execute these lovable, grateful, worshipping believers which they nurture so kindly. They rather dismiss them from their duties in this worldly life to bestow on them still more brilliant instances of mercy, and in so doing the Names of All-Compassionate and Munificent answer our question. Also, we see before our eyes that a hand of wisdom works in all creatures on the face of the earth and a justice is in force with its measures, nothing superior to which the human mind can conceive of. For example, a pre-eternal wisdom inscribes in man's faculty of memory, which is one instance of wisdom in his thousands of faculties and physical systems and is as tiny as a miniscule seed, his entire life-story and the numerous events which touch on him, making it into a small library. He then places it in the pocket of his mind as a note from the register of his actions which will be published for his judgement at the Great Gathering, in order to continuously remind him of this. And an eternal justice places on all creatures their members with the finest balance, and makes all of them -from the microbe to the rhinoceros, and the fly to the simurgh bird, and from a flowering plant to the flower of the spring, which opens thousands of millions of flowers in the spring- with a beauty of art and balance with no waste within a mutual proportion, equilibrium, order and beauty; it gives all living creatures their rights of life with perfect balance, and makes good things produce good results and bad things, bad results; and since the time of Adam it has made itself felt forcefully through the blows it has dealt to rebellious and tyrannous peoples. Certainly and without doubt, just as the sun cannot be without the day, so that pre-eternal wisdom and eternal justice cannot be without the hereafter. The Names of All-Wise and Sapient, Just and Equitable would never permit the awesome injustice, inequity, and unwisdom of oppressed and oppressor being equal in death, and thus they decisively answer our question.(The Rays,Risale-i Nur)
Humans do not have our set purpose, this is our God given free will we unlike all other creatures can choose our purpose everything plays a vital role and every being is recycled back to the earth but before you can train your mind and body to learn almost anything allowing you to choose any purpose you feel will benefit the balance :)
Funny how after the narrator finishes talking about "dignity and grace," he cites the quote about "entertaining other view pionts as a mark of an educated mind", then spends a few minutes talking about climate change, claims it's all settled using made up stats, and smears the critics in a rather patronizing way as 'cLiMaTE deNieRs.' The lack of self-awareness 🏆
My father teach me very clear when you open your mouth make sure you have support people be strong it's not have money be strongest be unique be unique with powers be unique with powers souls with powers no need anything 😂❤
lol when you spoke here it is clear you believe climate change is all true (it is partially true) but if you look at history it is cyclical too --I have more but the point is you stressed your belief system using Aristotle
When he says he will not let the Athenians sin twice against philosophy, he's actually referring to Socrates, who was executed by Athenian democratic vote.
The “climate change” portion of this video is based on nonsense rather than science. The rest of it is quite interesting although I do not agree with Aristotle, Plato, nor any other philosopher 100%.
@@williamw422 100% of so-called scientists constantly make the disproven claims of “97% of scientists agree” some say “98%” some “96%” but I’ll give whoever all of the margin they need to make any provable point. Through my own observation I estimate that among scientists it’s actually about 50% of the opinion that current climate change is caused by humans. My personal view on the issue is that science is always provable and repeatable. I have no desire for the truth to be this or that, but I have always and will continue to insist that science be provable and repeatable. I have been patiently waiting for anyone to show that climate change is caused by humans. Emotions and philosophies aside there is no proof that I can find. If you disagree please post your proof here. I will gladly change my mind if ever such evidence is submitted. Is that clear enough?
That was just an example on how to handle someone who sounds completely absurd to you, and still be a part of the conversation. And personally I found it quite good. It's because we avoid such uncomfortable conversations that we're not able to bring about meaningful change in people's opinions. We just try finding people who agrees with us and and just avoid those who don't. And that's what 'polarizes' the world.
The narrators defense of climate change was presented in a very illogical fashion his support for it was weak and appears to be agenda driven which makes me question the accuracy of anything else he may say.
This one is extremely relevant at this time...especially with the 40% of folks who are on their anti-vaxxer bullshit.......Philosophies for Life is the best out here....
If my doctor tells me that the f I had the virus I don't need to take the vaccine be sure that I will listen to him and not internet folks who knows nothing about my medical history.
Brings up climate change. Stick to ancient history. Something in old books. There, you won’t miss the one of Aristotle’s big lessons: Don’t follow mob beliefs like a useful fool.
This is very well done, but does reflect a modern, almost woke frame of reference, such as the part on friendships with racists and sexists. By today's standards Aristotle wouldn't be considered the most progressive individual, after all, he believed that some people are natural slaves, and he wasn't a feminist by a long stretch. Suffice to say that deep friendships are formed with people who share each others values, whether those values are racist or non-racist, Communist or Fascist, Liberal or Conservative, etc..
Wow ... how about you apply Aristotle's precepts to your climate change example? No need to be polemical and biased in your examples. Open your mind--I'm sure Aristotle would agree. Or perhaps you can use another example.

“A friend for all is a friend for none” beautiful
I try to be friend everyone, but a majority show me why I choose to be selective.

I was going to share this video because I think we NEED more Aristotle in the world today. HOWEVER, the example used about 'climate change deniers' put me off. The narrator CLEARLY is propagandizing here. Sickeningly NOT Aristotle. Pffft ... pathetic.
Great Video but 'climate change' agenda was inserted in a sneaky way. me too, I was not impressed.
Everything happens for a reason making sure people you understand we open too many doors the universe take it take it or leave it😢
Truly that HNIC
The only philosopher who influenced Ayn Rand.
Awesome
The Greeks Thales, Hippocrates, Pythagoras, Socrates, and Plato all traveled to
Kemet, they studied at the temple-universities Waset and Ipet for more than 20 years
I don’t believe that is true. Please offer a source besides your comment.
I have read this so many times, but no one has ever stated a source.
Philosophers become kings & kings become philosophers. Athens is a perfect example of the foundation of due process for it's citizens. You must 1st be charged with a crime. That's the 1st step. Nothing else matters.
Yes, since there is no sovereignty that does not reward those who obey it and punish the rebelliou
an eternal sovereignty which is at the degree of absolute dominicality rewarding those who form a relation with it through belief and submit to its decrees,
and its punishing rebellious disbelievers who deny its proud sovereignty
will be in a manner fitting for its mercy and beauty, its dignity and glory. Thus, the Names Sustainer of All the Worlds and Just Monarch reply to our question.
Also, we see as clearly as the sun, as daylight, a general mercy and all-embracing compassion and munificence on the face of the earth.
For example, every spring that mercy adorns all the fruit-bearing trees and plants like houris;
it fills their hands with every sort of fruit and they hold them out to us, saying: "Help yourselves, and eat!"
So does it give us sweet, healing honey to eat from the poisonous bee, and dresses us in the softest silk by means of a handless insect.
It deposits for us in a handful of tiny seeds pounds of food, making those tiny stores into reserve supplies. Such a mercy and compassion
surely would not execute these lovable, grateful, worshipping believers which they nurture so kindly.
They rather dismiss them from their duties in this worldly life to bestow on them still more brilliant instances of mercy, and in so doing the Names of All-Compassionate and Munificent answer our question.
Also, we see before our eyes that a hand of wisdom works in all creatures on the face of the earth and a justice is in force with its measures, nothing superior to which the human mind can conceive of.
For example, a pre-eternal wisdom inscribes in man's faculty of memory, which is one instance of wisdom in his thousands of faculties and physical systems and is as tiny as a miniscule seed, his entire life-story and the numerous events which touch on him,
making it into a small library. He then places it in the pocket of his mind as a note from the register of his actions which will be published for his judgement at the Great Gathering, in order to continuously remind him of this. And an eternal justice places on all creatures their members with the finest balance, and makes all of them -from the microbe to the rhinoceros, and the fly to the simurgh bird,
and from a flowering plant to the flower of the spring, which opens thousands of millions of flowers in the spring- with a beauty of art and balance with no waste within a mutual proportion, equilibrium, order and beauty;
it gives all living creatures their rights of life with perfect balance,
and makes good things produce good results and bad things, bad results;
and since the time of Adam it has made itself felt forcefully through the blows it has dealt to rebellious and tyrannous peoples.
Certainly and without doubt, just as the sun cannot be without the day, so that pre-eternal wisdom and eternal justice cannot be without the hereafter.
The Names of All-Wise and Sapient, Just and Equitable would never permit the awesome injustice, inequity, and unwisdom of oppressed and oppressor being equal in death,
and thus they decisively answer our question.(The Rays,Risale-i Nur)
Ancient wisdom
I got you people very well for year's 😅
Who's care right ❤
Nice
How can you ever know someone if they don't know themselves? . No one can tell the future and the future always changes things.

Humans do not have our set purpose, this is our God given free will we unlike all other creatures can choose our purpose everything plays a vital role and every being is recycled back to the earth but before you can train your mind and body to learn almost anything allowing you to choose any purpose you feel will benefit the balance :)
A climate change 'denier' - Aristotle would never use insults to prove a point.
Exactly. Never knew this page would start talking like this. It always seemed to be fair but they clearly showed their bias on this issue
Well the channel has 1 million subscribers so is anybody surprised do you think they got 1 million subscribers from making good videos?
Seriously glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed this. I was quite perturbed.
Looks like all societies accuse thinkers of impiety, doesn't matter the eon.
I stopped listening as soon as the video changed to a focus on controvertial climate change propaganda.
Funny how after the narrator finishes talking about "dignity and grace," he cites the quote about "entertaining other view pionts as a mark of an educated mind", then spends a few minutes talking about climate change, claims it's all settled using made up stats, and smears the critics in a rather patronizing way as 'cLiMaTE deNieRs.'
The lack of self-awareness 🏆
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed the tone of superiority and condescension . . .
I wish you all lifelong eudaimonia and mental prosperity!
My father teach me very clear when you open your mouth make sure you have support people be strong it's not have money be strongest be unique be unique with powers be unique with powers souls with powers no need anything 😂❤
lol when you spoke here it is clear you believe climate change is all true (it is partially true) but if you look at history it is cyclical too --I have more but the point is you stressed your belief system using Aristotle
You are gentes abalfabetas and burdas found definitions 😂❤
When he says he will not let the Athenians sin twice against philosophy, he's actually referring to Socrates, who was executed by Athenian democratic vote.
The one and only thing in life we control is our brain. So wouldn't you want to have good self talk?
Somehow he managed to work climate change into a discussion about Aristotle.
And was poorly informed on it!
The “climate change” portion of this video is based on nonsense rather than science. The rest of it is quite interesting although I do not agree with Aristotle, Plato, nor any other philosopher 100%.
100%
@@williamw422
100% of so-called scientists constantly make the disproven claims of “97% of scientists agree” some say “98%” some “96%” but I’ll give whoever all of the margin they need to make any provable point. Through my own observation I estimate that among scientists it’s actually about 50% of the opinion that current climate change is caused by humans. My personal view on the issue is that science is always provable and repeatable. I have no desire for the truth to be this or that, but I have always and will continue to insist that science be provable and repeatable. I have been patiently waiting for anyone to show that climate change is caused by humans. Emotions and philosophies aside there is no proof that I can find. If you disagree please post your proof here. I will gladly change my mind if ever such evidence is submitted. Is that clear enough?
That was just an example on how to handle someone who sounds completely absurd to you, and still be a part of the conversation. And personally I found it quite good. It's because we avoid such uncomfortable conversations that we're not able to bring about meaningful change in people's opinions. We just try finding people who agrees with us and and just avoid those who don't. And that's what 'polarizes' the world.
Cute
😂 what type of science do u think you are an expert in.. thats cute
The narrators defense of climate change was presented in a very illogical fashion his support for it was weak and appears to be agenda driven which makes me question the accuracy of anything else he may say.
This one is extremely relevant at this time...especially with the 40% of folks who are on their anti-vaxxer bullshit.......Philosophies for Life is the best out here....
Ah a yes, let's have a conversation my authoritarian friend.
Hooray! What else have you learned from television and Facebook?
If my doctor tells me that the f I had the virus I don't need to take the vaccine be sure that I will listen to him and not internet folks who knows nothing about my medical history.
Could have done without the climate change propaganda right in the middle of Aristotle’s teachings.
money can solve loads of problems
What makes him a Promethean figure ? What does this mean ?
A figure that gave knowledge to further humanity
wonder what he would think about today with ppls needs to seem virtuous but in reality they have not done the work involved to truly be
Brings up climate change. Stick to ancient history. Something in old books. There, you won’t miss the one of Aristotle’s big lessons: Don’t follow mob beliefs like a useful fool.
This is very well done, but does reflect a modern, almost woke frame of reference, such as the part on friendships with racists and sexists. By today's standards Aristotle wouldn't be considered the most progressive individual, after all, he believed that some people are natural slaves, and he wasn't a feminist by a long stretch. Suffice to say that deep friendships are formed with people who share each others values, whether those values are racist or non-racist, Communist or Fascist, Liberal or Conservative, etc..
Wow ... how about you apply Aristotle's precepts to your climate change example? No need to be polemical and biased in your examples. Open your mind--I'm sure Aristotle would agree. Or perhaps you can use another example.
Does the school HAVE to be in Africa?
You’re wrong about climate change dude
That's why I prefer to be alone nothing good around 😮❤ excuse my honestly 😢
