- In this video we will talk about how to be extraordinary from the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. Friedrich Nietzsche was one of the main precursors of existentialism and his goal was to pave the way for “Superhuman”, an extraordinary superior and absolutely free man.
Friedrich Nietzsche, through his teachings, wanted people to see the great height of their extraordinary potential and to break the chains which kept them prisoners in order to conquer their true freedom and to help us understand those teachings, here are 10 lessons from the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche which can teach you how to be extraordinary -
01. Be an essentialist
02. Be authentic
03. Look for wisdom, not knowledge
04. Put your will into things
05. Love your destiny
06. Never fear failure
07. Always speak your truth
08. Stay connected to nature
09. Be pragmatic
10. Be a dynamite
We hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope this video helps you get closer to being extraordinary.
Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philosopher, poet, essayist, and cultural critic. He is considered to be one of the most daring and greatest thinkers of all time. His writings on truth, morality, language, aesthetics, cultural theory, history, nihilism, power, consciousness, and the meaning of existence have exerted an enormous influence on Western philosophy and intellectual history. He was one of the biggest precursors of existentialism, which emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent, determining their own development through acts of will. By his famous words “God is dead!”, Nietzsche moved the focus of philosophy from metaphysics to the material world and to the individual as a responsible person for his own life. Friedrich Nietzsche wrote several books like The Birth of a Tragedy, Human, All Too Human, The Dawn, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Beyond Good and Evil, Twilight of the Idols, The Will to Power, The Antichrist, and many more. His teachings have shaped the lives of many people; from psychologists to poets, dancers to social revolutionaries.

Nietsche was 'taking the piss' with autobiographies with that quote, in regard to how they are typically acts of boasting.
Thanks for a gr8 work at first
@@aussiebeermoney1167 hahahahahah,still we can learn from one's boasting!
so.... we are still looking for that Übermensch🤣 ....
Nietz was "extraordinary " all right, an extraordinary atheist who is not burning in Hell because he did not believe in Jesus Christ. So sad.
When I was little my mum used to help me to do my math homework. Everytime I got stuck and started crying that I don't understand she said: ok, go take the trash out. It was 2 min walk outside and 99% of the time when I got back home I knew the solution to my problem. Till
this day everytime I feel stuck or down I go out for a walk.
That was cute, and yes I would do something similar as well
You’re welcome to take my trash out too
😭
I got screamed at and was called a dumb f?#k
😁 yeah it worked for you don't let everyone start taking out trash
Those, who put their voices in support ideals given to us by Nietzsche, are the more advance part of Humanity. Big part of it is the character and the will. Without them nothing is possible. Thanks.

“The higher we soar, the smaller we appear to those who cannot fly.”
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Nietzsche is praising himself here, of course. He so desired the praise and approval of others, yet his social awkwardness meant he could only find solace in denigrating others in his works in order to exalt himself.
@@aussiebeermoney1167 But, the crazy part is, is that those who are not ambitious truly cannot fly with you and even can weigh your wings down if you let it. It's not downgrading if it's inspiring and performing - not a better lever, just a different one.
@@eviebernal2913 maybe it's not that they 'cannot fly' but that they are being annoyingly realistic and holding to you account. Everyone wants to be a rock star in the teens - the smart ones listened to those who might have thought at the time they were having their dreams crushed by people just trying to drag them down.
One of my favorite Nietzsche quotes!
@@aussiebeermoney1167 what are you famous for?
Be super careful when you become super human... Or even half way there, people will hate you so much.
They are thretened by your light, freedom, knowledge.....
The higher we soar, the smaller we appear to those who can’t fly.
- Nietzsche
So what if others hate you..maybe we should learn to be comfortable with ourselves.
What’s superhuman becoming like a god right and god himself said in Shri Guru Granth Sahib that a person who has some specific traits of humanity is also no less than a god bu5 living at that standards requires ur full attention until u r another ready u can’t achieve anything no matter what and this goes for all the obstacles u see as hurdles in ur life just to make u more strong and familiar with that shit
Better than hating myself

@Mustafa Ali No, Islamic concept and faith itself is an illusion. Muhammad stole a lot of religious teachings at his time to create his new religion called Islam. He increased the number of followers of his religion by means of war.
@Mustafa Ali I don't think you understand what you are replying to, I was making fun of Muslims believing something because you don't want your illusion destroyed, that's what's ironic. Muslims contributed to science and mathematics, this is taught in European schools don't worry. Your minuscule contribution over a 1,000 years ago is acknowledged, don't stress.

"He who has a why, can bear almost any how" ― this one brief, yet profound statement from Nietzsche has had a tremendous impact on my life. It captures the most fundamental ingredient in living a life of purpose, which gives you the fuel to endure. I spent over 6+ weeks studying the life of Chadwick Boseman recently and his final years was the essence of Nietzsche's statement. Thanks for sharing this video.
As I've gotten older and have gotten a clearer picture of so-called 'reality', I've set more and more limitations upon myself. I look at statistics about how uncommon certain things are like overcoming certain addictions or getting a certain job or anything that's statistically improbable and think, "I'm not special enough to be an outlier who overcomes the odds. I'm a slave to being all too human, so why even try?" This defeatist mindset has been like being tied down with a ball and chain that has gotten heavier while I've gotten weaker.
However, my New Year's resolution is to be more comfortable with being uncomfortable while being less comfortable with being too comfortable and learning to "embrace the suck" . Most of my life has consisted of finding shortcuts or what the kids call "hacks" that allowed me to exert minimal effort for the maximum rewards. I did the bare minimum (and sometimes cheated I'm ashamed to say) and skated my way through school. I also choose an easy university degree and worked menial jobs with low barriers to entry. This constant search for efficiency and following the path of easiness may be helpful in certain circumstances, but if applied to nearly all aspects of life, you end up as a slothful idling blob who lays about in indolence.
For about a month now, I've been running fairly consistently and am on a streak that's super rare for me. Whenever I suffer the pain of running during near maximal effort and tempted to stop or walk, I keep reminding myself to embrace the suck and to be mindful of how running will pay great dividends. Cold showers and ice baths are things I also plan on working my way up to. I think living a safe and relatively easy life made be soft, so it's imperative to introduce some beneficial and controlled stress in my life. Controlled stress could also provide physiological benefits that uplift my mood, reduce inflammation, strengthen my immune system, etc. I used to powerlift and go to the gym 3-4 days a week prior to the covid pandemic, so a major source of beneficial stress vanished, which caused me to wither away mentally, physically, and spiritually.
Procrastination is major issue I'm working on, which has tormented me most of my life. It's weird how it's physically easy to do the things that my laziness perceives as painful and how the pain of overcoming laziness can feel worse than physical pain. A major source of procrastination is surfing the internet, especially on my dopamine-flooding and time-wasting laptop. I'm seriously considering getting rid of my laptop and making do with my old smartphone. The withdrawals and void left by not being able to get a dopamine fix from my laptop will hopefully compel me to get that fix in healthier and more productive (not drugs!) ways like reading, doing a major cleaning purge of my apartment and maintaining a high level of cleanliness and orderliness instead of allowing it to fall into a mess of chaos, being more active outside, socializing in-person much more frequently, finally getting my passport, studying for my personal training certificate, and many other things I've been putting off out of my laptop-induced procrastination.
Anyhow, thank you for mentioning that profound Nietzsche quote and inspiring me to continually take inventory of my life and strengthening my resolve to overcome setbacks and follow through with my goals!
@@jzen1455 thanks for sharing this. It’s inspiring. The most difficult step I’ve found is acknowledging that you want to be better and having the will to act. Looks like things are going well, keep it up and more importantly keep it sustainable, don’t burn out. I always try to remind myself in the midst of a difficult pursuit that greatness lies on the other side of suffering. Having a purpose to keep you going can be an inextinguishable fuel. Keep up the good fight!
I cannot find a why for myself.
It's a great simple quote

"One must be a sea, to receive a polluted stream without becoming impure" - Nietzsche
Sometimes too many polluted streams make it impossible for the ocean to absorb it all. Thus the only solution is to stop the streams from dumping pollution into it.
One must be an Ocean 🌊 nowadays and still can't handle the amount of pollution a single Wave brings

I thought I was too philosophical, different, and alone all my life. I never took a deeper dive into philosophy. And then something or someone brought me here. I don't feel alone anymore. This is amazing.
Thinking
Your mind , whether articulate or chaotic, it's your best friend. Embracing your preprogrammed early self. That MIND is the one I'm referring too. Hope u understand.Neitcha I believe expressed this to me with Zarathustra
I hope you continued your journey friend
Keep it up brother, share the knowledge and aim to gain more. Its funny how Nietsche confuses knowledge and wisdom (In this video) since they cannot exist without eachother. So I would say, make the best wisdom out of your everyday knowledge.
@@carmin1999thank you for this , i needed to hear this atm
I learned to love & accept myself, all thanks to Nietzsche's teachings.
There is a disingenuous portion in "speaking his truth" and saying that it's one of the most important things. I think Nietzsche would be embarrassed for this at times poor interpretation of his work
1. Be a lion.
2. Be a camel that can carry heavy weights in life.
3. Be a child.

Authenticity is hard to come by these days, I feel like that’s a definitely deserving trait to be on this list.
What does that even mean? You are a product of your environment. Always changing along with it.
@@daithiocinnsealach1982 it means that you should stand your ground when it comes to your values.
@@daithiocinnsealach1982 When your values are in alignment with your actions.
Authenticity is a great trait to have; however, being authentic, genuine and/or truthful comes with its own baggage in today’s society. When people say they want authenticity, they only want it when it’s doesn’t hurt their feelings. A true authentic person would probably have a difficult time in building relationships, as most people do not want the authentic truth; rather they want politeness and agreeableness sprinkled with authenticity. Truth be told there are authentic people out there, they are considered “a$$holes” or “weird”.
@@TheObsidianLogic There are times where, being authentic may create barriers, but being an asshole just because being authentic might be a stretch. You might feel that people who are more assertive are authentic, but you might be authentically non-assertive. You might be driven in thinking authenticity and assertively walk hand-in-hand. But sometimes being authentic is just being you anytime-anywhere, wherever and whoever you are I guess.
I don't disagree with you, but because I'm an assertive individual (at least I've been proven by many situations I am).
And yet no one understands Nietzsche! A paradigm shift of epic proportions is required FIRST!!!!!!!!!!As he said himself, his authority lies in the fact that he is not understood. If anyone understands let me know.
His life just made me sad as he is one of the people I idolize in the history and reading about his constant suffering his whole life and eventually losing his sanity is just heartbreaking. 💔
As it says there's a thin line between being genius and having a mental illness.
If I had to imagine- he lost the will to fight… just got tired and old. Couldn’t do it anymore.
The narrator claims that Nietzsche said that God does not exist. Actually, Nietzsche said "God is dead.". Two totally different meanings. This narrator is not speaking the truth with all of its nuances. God can exist and not be relevant to your life because you may not pay any attention to Him or the health of your own spiritual being, making God dead to you in effect. But God would still exist. Understand - two totally different meanings.

It's such a mind-blowing realization to accept that lil ole me can embody philosophical theories of some of the worlds greatest minds. I'm currently in Louisiana, dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Ida, and this whole experience is one big experiment for me. My family has been bewildered by my sense of calm and desire for solitude while they congregate in one room, to sit in silence while playing on their cellphones. And they think I'm the weird one!?!? lmao
Friedrich Nietzsche, interesting how his life was so short and racked with emotional anxiety. And his works are now World renowned. And often very difficult to understand.
We studied Nietzsche in my Philosophy class in college. Even though I signed up for it, I was young, & a lot of it went ovr my head, but 2day, I do believe & live by many of these outlooks. It's wisdom at it's finest. Still have the 📚 almost 30 yrs later.
And wil have for300 more✌
As humans, we have evolved to maintain the status quo and stay in our comfort zones, however, in order to live the lives we want to live, it's essential to go beyond that, remain authentic and to persevere through all obstacles and challenges.
Yes, the majority will remain in their comfort zones. It's the small percentage of outliers who contribute to major changes for the good or bad. Not everyone can be extraordinary statistically speaking.
@@jzen1455 True. It's a little sad to think about it but if everyone were extraordinary, no one would be extraordinary, you know what I mean?
I would say it’s somewhat the opposite most people are not in their comfort zone they just live in an illusion that they are in fact most people are leaving extremely difficult and hard-working lives they are running in circles with the belief that there is an end to it and assume they will be able to sail off into the sunset once they retire at the age of 70 and are basically almost dead.
The vast majority of people are so stuck in poor financial decisions that appear normal and actually a sign of success such as having a mortgage and a car payment insurance retirement plan a family without any sort of money to support it before you even start it and other money draining decisions That force them to work 50 hours a week and ensure that they have no time to think for themselves or ever think for a way out of that situation. The house is literally a wooden structure that protects you from the wind and gives you a place to sleep and cook food yet people are willing and think it’s completely normal to pay 300,000 if not most of the time after interest rates around $1 million if we include taxes.
Because people are so afraid of being judged and too lazy to find alternatives in life they are essentially demented herd animals forever running in a circle never growing and just existing to exist.
When I was made to mask up at my job. I had the creepy suspicion it was a scam. I was half in half out. When a domineering fellow employee said cover your whole nose and my glasses fogged up my vision. It seemed the perfect metaphor. She said...those are the Rules. I said, sometimes the rules are wrong!!. I put it on my nose ,but felt I schooled her. That was halfway thru this . Take it or lose your job nonsense
I take the good and leave the bad. I believe in Jesus and a Maker of all this.
God had the first stick of Dynomite and found a way to light it up, and he gave us the big bang.
A teacher once asked me to show him an example of a paradigm.
So I gave him twenty cents.
18:08 - Nietzsche never said "God does not exist". Here us what Nietzsche said:
"“God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives: who will wipe this blood off us? What water is there for us to clean ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we have to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it?”
There are many concepts of God, some more anthropomorphic than others, some more childlike than others.
Nietzsche wants us to become the best version of ourselves, to reach new heights, to live abundantly, to shake off guilt and fear and meekness, to become free spirits. An overbearing, constricting, guilt-imposing concept of God will hinder that process. Yes, we kill off old concepts of God in order that a more liberating concept of God might rise from the ashes and to become more god-like ourselves, creators like the Creator.
Nietzsche came from a long line of Protestant pastors, the story of Jesus, the God-Man, was deeply imbibed. "We" killed Jesus, crucified Him on the cross. How will we make up for it? By becoming more bold like Jesus, by accepting our fate and suffering and humiliation - transcending social hierarchies and categories and impositions - and by rising again from the dead. By, as Nietzsche puts it, "we ourselves (becoming) gods".
It's a multi-layered imagery and process.
The end-goal is the Übermensch, if not ourselves, then preparing the way for future generations.
Practice and live and teach courage confidence, fearlessness.
"Live dangerously".
Loved learning about the thoughts. 👍🏽
Especially about self-ownership and how that helps prevent feelings of victimization. ✨
To feel alone is a terrible load to bear. Good thing there’s someone who entered history to carry our load.
Experience things rather than make excuses. Part of what makes life enjoyable is the experiences you have...
And what if I don’t want to experience
And what if I don't wanna excuse.
Philosophy is something I want love. It teaches the fact about what people wants to know.❤

"it is a truly great thing to slowly understand that you know nothing at all". The bluebird, Maurice Maeterlinck
Be as YOU are. You are different from others. You are not born to follow anyone.

Big fan of FN I am not sure, he would have permitted this "sermon" of hard core....., well, SOMETHING. Nor do I believe, he would give the same advises to people nowadays.... His dynamite ignites muffled by time.....
Authenticity is when you can stand up for what you believe to be good or doing your best
Accept the consequence as opportunity to learn when mistake is made
Then just be and move forward
When I was little my mum used to help me to do my math homework. Everytime I got stuck and started crying that I don't understand she said: ok, go take the trash out. It was 2 min walk outside and 99% of the time when I got back home I knew the solution to my problem. Till this day everytime I feel stuck or down I go out for a walk.
Great way of explaining, didnt understand when this 26 minutes went while watching Lessons consisting such great insights and Wisdom..

Thanks for sharing such an amazing content by a Dynamite ...huge Respect to Friedrich Nietzsche !🙌🙌🙌
I think Neitzsche had some wisdom but I also think he lacks wisdom or understanding when he contradicts himself about religion. Or perhaps it's the perceptions of his views about religion are lacking. Sure you may have doubts but does that make you an atheist and you may have faith but does that make you a believer without doubts? We should respect each other and grow in understanding
This excellent lecture about the philsophy of Nietzsche made me reflect how far I am away from being a "Superhuman" (could we also say "Superman" or "Superwoman"?). Actually I am living according to essentialism, a few years ago I started to free myself from all things and persons which were not essential for me and who constrained me from becoming the autentic person who I think I am now. But from my own experience I also know that in order to become really authentic in the sense of realizing our whole potential, sometimes we might need the inspiration of a good friend who gives us a kick into the right direction.
Wisdom has always been more important to me than knowledge. Often I am lacking basic knowledge of things "one should know", but I ask myself "why should I know them"? Also I avoid being a slave of my environment by not follwing mainstream behaviour. I have indeed a strong will and face reality as it is. Actually I have often asked myself whether I have a free will and I don't think so. But I feel free to accept my destiny and make the best out of it. I also recognize myself in all the other points mentioned here. For example, running in nature is often the best way for me to free my mind so that new ideas can pop up. I'm not sure whether I am something like "dynamite", but indeed most of the time I feel full of energy and joy in my mind.
your thoughts should also always start from the point and understanding that 99.9999% of the people around you are ignorant and EVERYONE is a victim of the country, economy, society, culture AND THOUGHTS you grew up with, and there are only a few who can put themselfs above that. those thoughts alone should make you happy, and make you understand each individual, "people's reach of understanding" things as a whole is almost none existing.... all they se is (for them alone what is wrong and correct) once u can understand this, u can stop working on urself, and start working for others.
A case of: be the best human you can - within your own limits - but leave ideas of being some ego-driven superhero to the comic books?
usually philosophers work to solve their predecessors' issues. Nietzsche falls into a problem already solved before: are you able to perceive reality itself? Are your senses trustworthy enough for you to believe in them as Truth?
Because if you can be deceived by your senses and if you are unable to perceive reality itself, you cannot talk about "your" Truth. There's no such thing as your truth then. There's only your perception, that can be either accurate or not.
I do think everyone can have an opinion, but it's an opinion. It not "a" truth, it's not "the" Truth. It's just a personal impression of reality.
He who sees the abyss, but with eagle's eyes,- he who with eagle's talons grasps the abyss: he has courage. -Nietzsche

I dont want to be extraordinary. I just want to feel again
Start with the most ordinary things. The taste of an apple, the feeling of wood, the cold prise of the wind, the fresh taste of water. Concentrate on the reaction of your body. The taste, the sound, the feeling.
Become one with reality, all the extraordinary will reveal itself.

Nietzsche was an atheist though he was a great philosopher. What impact did this make on his life and work. Any enterprise that's devoid of God cannot benefit man.
This would be much more meaningful without the speaker's attempts to apply it to my life, where he fails.
1. Be an essentialist. Whats really important, true ans essential. Be less concerned with the mundane. Declutter your life. Throw away things that do not represent you. Throw away pp that dont add value. Throw away a career that doesnt represent you. Don't do things to impress ppl. Have high goals, high priorities. This is essential to living an extraordinary life.
2. Be authentic. Shun the herd mentality. Own yourself, become free and authentic. Confidence comes with Self- discovery. Start to say no to ppl so as to own the person you really have. Start a fight to regain your freedom.
3. Look for wisdom, not Knowledge.
Wisdom is gathered from day to day experiences. Knowledge is gained from books. Write a list on what kind of knowledge you need. Seek only high quality knowledge, relevant to your goals in life.
4. Put your will in things. Gain real will- power to do things. Create your own values. Get freedom from systems that bind your spirit, intellect and agency.
5. Love your destiny. Amor Fati. Love for one' s fate. Reaffirm life as it is. Look at your existence with a deep understanding. Live your life according to your passions and personality. Be aware of life to experience it. Do not regret, lament your past, or grieve over.the dead. Look at life not for happiness, bit as a constant process of self discovery. Practice meditation regularly.
5. Never fear failure. Be prepared to burn in your own flame. You must first be ashes. Be resilient. Never yield. Anyone who wants to achieve sth extraordinary in life should not be debilitated by fear.
6. Always speak your truth. The world cherishes them who speak the truth. Speak it, no matter how shocking. To be extraordinary, you must have the courage to speak extraordinary truths.
Say "Dynamite" like JJ from the TV show Good Times...😜😜
The more I hear about or read Nietzsche, the more I see him as simply a really smart, aspiring cult leader. Blahaha

Although the point of these videos is not to discuss historical or biographical information, if historical or biographical information is mentioned, it should be accurate. Nietzsche did not die from mental illness. He died from syphilis, which is also believed to have been the major cause of his mental decline.
"Or even the world at large, or even the world at large"
Can someone explain to me why we assume free will is true?
From a scientific perspective: It’s clearly undeniably false as the fabric of the universe relies on one universal law, that being causation, which dictates everything has a cause hence nothing causes itself.
If a more subjective perspective is required: how do I adopt a perspective I can’t recognise as true?
Obviously there’s more context to this but this comment is already too long 😂
My joint all time favourite philosopher with Schopenhauer
My gosh, you make Nietzsche so consumer friendly. People, just read his books and stop watching such awful "self-improvement" bs. You will at least learn something useful.
I’m constantly conducting these concepts but still feel grateful finding myself in accordance with the great minds.
The guy wasn’t that deep but he definitely went off the deep end he was a charlatan very insecure and mad at the world. His philosophy doesn’t work with people of actual high intellect in this life because we actually care and control our emotions. God is alive the simple conscience in us always leads to god or something god like .
I see that extra ordinary means you have to do a little extra everyday out of your ordinary life to amount to something extraordinary.
I find ads annoying-Friedrich Nietzsche
I am already extra-ordinary. Am pretty bland, as a matter of fact.
I would rather not emulate the philosophy of a manic-depressive, sad man whose only solution, in the end, was self-destruction. With his dynamite, he truly blew himself up to end all experiences.
These videos are so valuable. We appreciate you these uploads.

I love the video. Everything about it. So, please don't think I'm being disrespectful when I ask you this:
Are these videos YOUR specific interpretation of Niestzsche's work, or is it the general consensus of his work, or did he explain his work well enough to understand like this?
If I would be honest to my boss, I would loose my job.
Yeah, they can't handle the truth. Be very careful
Not for the masses,, tell a guy this theory in Africa, or India who is suffering, because he or she, it can't get the nesseary thing in life to live, water and food.. Long walks...
That mustache though...
I loved philosophy in generally and discovered that in my youth. Now, listening your compilation on Nietzsche, being in age beyond 80, realized that his philosophy of life the closest to my mind and my heart.
"Religion is a refuge for a fool!"
Aaron E.
Tesla was an inventor whom the future belongs to, Nietzsche is the philosopher whom the future belongs to.
"The promise of fake paradise..."
I got an ad for Disney World right after that. Synchronicity at its finest.
The story about Fredrick Nietzsche and teachings, his beliefs .
Awesome, loved the elitism. To be extraordinary would seem to mean rising above the tide of humanity like cream (or scum). Gorgeously divisive too, like all our social games. My mind is also warped with disease. Appreciated this contribution to the powers of darkness immensely. Pleasing his formula has no room for humility or compassion as pride begets a fall. Once we've all fallen we can get on with it. Any game we like. Definitely no room for false idols. A. K. A. Any idols. We are all human. Until we identify with our games and forget to laugh. Hahahahahahahaha
I want grand entry of NEW BOY HUBBY in my life ❤️
Universe help me❤️
Just to be ordinary is the most extraordinary thing in the world because everybody wants to be extraordinary.
“Nobody wants to be ordinary. To be ordinary is the only extraordinary thing. Very rarely does somebody relax and becomes ordinary. If you ask Zen masters, ‘What do you do?’ they will say, ‘We fetch wood from the forest, we carry water from the well. We eat when we feel hungry, we drink when we feel thirsty, we go to sleep when we feel tired. This is all.’
“It does not look very appealing - fetching wood, carrying water, sleeping, sitting, eating. You will say, ‘These are ordinary things. Everybody is doing them.’ These are not ordinary things, and nobody is doing them. When you are fetching wood, you are condemning it - you would like to be the president of some country. You don’t want to be a woodcutter. You go on condemning the present for some imaginary future.
Carrying water from the well, you feel you are wasting your life. You are angry. You were not made for such ordinary things.
“You had come with a great destiny - to lead the whole world toward a paradise, some utopia. These are all ego trips. These are all ill states of consciousness.
“Just to be ordinary - and then suddenly what you call trivia is no longer trivia, what you call profane is no longer profane. Everything becomes sacred. Carrying wood becomes sacred. Fetching water from the well becomes sacred.
“When every act becomes sacred, when every act becomes meditative and prayerful, only then are you moving deeper into life - and then life opens all the mysteries to you. Then you are becoming capable. Then you are becoming receptive.
The more receptive you become, the more life becomes available.
“This is my whole teaching: to be ordinary, to be so ordinary that the very desire to be extraordinary disappears. Only then can you be in the present; otherwise you cannot be in the present.”
Wrong. I followed the ordinary path. Refused to advance courses. It is sort of boring to be surrounded of inferiors.
6 minutes in , I'm just trying to pronounce his name in my head correctly. 🥲

This is very similar to Stoicism. Although, I prefer Stoicism and Daoism over this.
Would a life of drug addiction and failed endevours with eventual suicide at a young age be a great example of how to live?
Amor fati
Well who would have thought modern society turned out to be nietzschean...
And yet people are more unhappy and feeling unfulfilled than ever before...
