Friedrich Nietzsche - How To Be Authentic (Existentialism)
Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philosopher, cultural critic, composer, poet, and philologist and is considered as one of the greatest and most unusual thinkers of all time. He was one of the precursors of existentialism. Existentialism is more a cultural movement rather than a philosophical one, which considers that freedom is at the core of human existence, all human values should be based on it and, moreover, existentialism affirms “the categorical moral imperative of authenticity”. In line with the theory of existentialism, Nietzsche talked about the importance of having an authentic life. In existentialism, authenticity is the degree to which a person's actions are in line with their beliefs and desires, despite the pressure from society to behave in one way or another. Nietzsche emphasized having the courage to be authentic and to fight against the tyranny of popular beliefs. So to understand how his ideas can help you in your life, here are 7 ways we can learn to be authentic from the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche.
01. Accept yourself as a totality
02. Follow your own path
03. Accept that you are different
04. Obey only yourself
05. Do not be ashamed
06. Forgive yourself
07. Live dangerously
I hope you enjoyed watching these 7 ways in which you can learn to be authentic from the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche and find them helpful in your life.
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 clearly with it. His comments on the average person in society and their bland acceptance of authority are all very well for him say when he could retire to his alpine retreats and live off his personal wealth. But very different for the average man who really lives in true poverty and understands such relatively simple concepts as positive nihilism and yet still lives a hopeless life without resort to alpine solitude and plenty.
Everything a homeless person here in Sydney Australia asks me for any change I try quickly to make them aware that they have an amazing opportunity to start again by overcoming their situation and if they have slept on the street hit a rock bottom that's experiences they have already overcome. YET they continue to play a victim. I use to play that victim until I found philosophy 7 years ago. Thanks for reading this...
@@shanebrennan256 what a very simple minded person you are, your comment is absurd and offensive.
Confidence is not walking into a room thinking you’re better than everyone, its walking into a room not comparing yourself to anyone at all.
Rooms were not made to walk into
I always see you comment on ams channel
Bro I see you everywhere 😂
I knew men into redpill are also into philosophy. Salute to all the men out there!
One does not simply walk into a room
No it’s not, that’s inauthentic. If you FEEL the urge to compare yourself to others and YOU DON’T, that’s personality tweaking and it’s inauthentic!!! People always try to put a positive spin on authenticity straight out of fear not realizing they’re compromising on authenticity itself!!! Even the video gets this wrong!!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I am a big fan of the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. He is so true in saying that there is no “right” way to lead our lives. Following what is popular is against yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche is honest about life and we can find experiences in our own lives that mirror his.
"What you think of yourself
Is much more important
Than what others
think of you."
Seneca.
be careful what you think of yourself! it may become reality! so think good things!
Don’t agree at all
Never ever judge anyone unless it's Wagner
I guess that's where personal relationships are still a thing. You build someone up in your mind to be something they aren't actually then you can't stand the disappointment when they aren't who you thought. Whether Wagner was being authentic to himself or not, Nietzsche wasn't going to be his friend anymore after he revealed who he really was and/or capitulated to expectations for fame.
‘Never meet ur heroes’ lol
🤣🤣
Excellent
Choosing to disengage from someone, because they don't have your best interest in mind, and recognizing someone else's traits, is not necessarily judgement.
Personally, I don't think judgement is bad. It's part of the critical thinking ability of the higher mind. It's only when the judgement is baseless, ie not in relation to how the individual actually is, that it can be malignant.
The best of ourselves is not there in comparison but in the confidence in not being someone else, yes just ourselves.

Nietzsche: Wagner sold out after his third album, I'm done...
"If you seek authenticity for authenticity's sake you are no longer authentic."
Jean-Paul Sartre
Exactly.
This quote just perfectly solved my question. Sometimes when I hear of the great quailties of authentic people, I get jealous. Not in a bad way, but simply longing for that same feeling. Trying to learn the qualities of an authentic person. They are not bad lessons don't get me wrong, but simply I should be my honest self, while also being kind to others and hardworking hard to be better.
@@GeekZone210 SEAL's “Kiss From A Rose” is authentic because you feel it in your heart.
The three control tactics: Fear, Guilt, and Shame.
Very very true. Insecurities as well. But I assume that's also a mix of fear and shame.
9:19 Nietzsche was contradicting his own philosophy when he judged Wagner. Nietzsche was authentically jealous of Wagner. And Nietzsche died in an insane asylum as Wagner continued to play music. Unlike most opera composers, Wagner wrote both the libretto and the music for each of his stage works. Initially establishing his reputation as a composer of works in the romantic vein of Carl Maria von Weber and Giacomo Meyerbeer, Wagner revolutionized opera through his concept of the Gesamtkunstwerk ("total work of art"), by which he sought to synthesize the poetic, visual, musical and dramatic arts, with music subsidiary to drama. Wagner appealing to the masses joined people together far more than Nietzsche's jealous anger ever did.
Something i don't understand: Nietzsche says that there is no right way to live life. And that we can't judge anyone for the way they live, there is no good and bad because it's not your life they're living. Yet he judges his friend Wagner for selling out, chasing succes and being 'inauthentic'. Sounds weird to me, because it's a complete contradiction.
Also, would it be inauthentic for me to chase succes, recognition, money, etc. if that's truly what i want to do? Would it be wrong for me to 'sell out' and be inauthentic just for a while because it will help me reach the purpose and goals in my life? If i am the one deciding to do this, is it still inauthentic?
It’s crazy cause I was just writing in my notes these kind of contradictions. The world is a complex place and we are complex beings. At the end of it all… it’s really just perspective.
I think the author misquoted him. I’m assuming it was more like he didn’t like how wagoners desires changed. Doesn’t mean he’s not authentic, but means that he didn’t like wagners new authenticity because not everyone’s compatible
He can disagree with Wagners way..without ‘judging him.
well over all, you truly enjoy chasing that bad go for it, its not about not chasing success, you chase after what you want. I disagree with chasing money, sex but i want recogniation for my art and manga. I want to do something impact but it for fame while nice, i doing this becasue it what truly feel happy and not just the happy kind of feeling after having sex or drinking or what hedosisitc attruibite. I stand agaisnt the pressure of prusing the money, wealth, statues that deeply ingrained the society because all it ever did to me was it made drove me to despair.
No price is too high to pay to know oneself. Absolutely. Thank you.
How dare Wagner give his customers what they want!
Money, Fame and Status.
I'm just discovering Nietzsche and OMG I've been living and molding this lifestyle, looked at as weird but idc and ever since i started, have felt very freed. I feel almost validated in the sense that I'm not alone in my philosophy in living my life. I'm 35 and amazed he reached this in his 20s.
Nietzsche's and other's quotes inspired me to free myself from judgement. I was living in my past, always thinking about "the good old times" and being so nostalgic that I even thought about school being a living hell because of some people back then.
I need to forget them, I need to forget judgement and I want to free myself from fear. Without fear, death will be nothing more than eternal sleep. Without fear, no one will make me obey them even if they're stronger. Without fear, I don't have stress and pressure with the vocational school, with my driver's license, with people laughing about me and how I dress. It's refreshing and this mindset made everything today just better.
'Though shall not Judge' is Jesus. Nietzsche didn't say, just let everyone do as they please. In Nietzsches eys we have to judge others, but according to our values. This video is slightly misleading.

I really like nietzsche's thoughts. this explanation is very understandable and to be recommended to all nietzsche lovers. how admirable!
I agree. What does tabomochanko mean though?
How do we know what an authentic life actually is when we (and therefore our inner voice) is manipulated and moulded from birth?
I feel like deep down your inner voice cannot be molded. Maybe try some deep introspection. Also if you love something you know you love it
Meditate
Frirdrich Niezsche...you spoke such wise words that brought me strength and helped turn my own misery and pain into gold. I only hope I make a worthy student.
U said nietzsche showed disgust coz composer was making music for masses which is contradictory to what u said about nietzsche about being non judgmental and vice versa 😆
‘Living dangerously!’ I believe means thinking and living not-like all the others

Nietzsche gets me so fired up, AHHH I'm ready to sculpt
I found that taping a message to my neighbour's car, in huge red letters, saying, "Are you out of your mind?" works quite well, but since this video is trying to help us all to get along with each other better, I'll remain silent for now - I clearly have much to learn...
I too love F.N. I was raised in an atmosphere of shame, judgment and severe morality. Discovering F.N .was a life changing event for me
Self acceptance and self love have been my key to recovery from what others tried to impose upon me
Thank you for playing this recording for everyone. F.N. got a bad rap for the connection the Nazis made with him so many years ago but in the end truth wills out. People ought not be written off so easily.
Nietzsche has been incredibly influencial on my thinking but I completely disagree with his moral relativism. I think I am right in saying a culture that stones women to death for the crime of being raped (like in Afghanistan) is not as good as the culture in the west where women have equal rights. I think we are correct to judge this harshly.
I think that proves his point very nicely actually. Because in other cultures they see it as good whereas you see it as bad. That's Nietzsche's point! That there's no "End-All Be-All" moral system. Only what everyone tolerates and agrees on
Same here. There can be some moral relativism but using it as "there's no objective right or wrong so how can we judge" is pathetic.
"even worse: forcing yourself to confront him" ... yeah ok, Nietzsche was scared to step outside of his comfort zone. this isn't good advice.
Kind of a contradictory proposition isn't it? Follow this set of ideas you didn't come up with to be more authentic.
Following your own path!!it is a really authentic trait ,showing your actions without staying on the beliefs of the society!!authentic beliefs mean that we have different perspectives in solving problems in life,so the path we follow is completely ours!!many humans follow the popular ways!!by being in full alertness,we have many ways in our authentic self to find unique solutions with wisdom!!
Fantastic video well done I needed this video thank you
I mean it is paradoxical in nature. Aren't we arbitrarily assigning judgment on a specific meta-approach of living by claiming that not being authentic, as Nietzsche defined is bad?
Aren't we also judging those who supposedly follow others' (masses) path as Nietzsche interpreted of Wagner?
How can you tell your inner voice apart from what advertisements and culture tell you to value?
Why is this guy's life airbrushed to make him seem a paragon of virtue? Why don't you tell us ALL about his actual life, including key vices that shed much light on his true character, and, thus, on his philosophical precepts?? Get real, please.
Here's my contribution - a song I wrote called 'I think I'll be Me'. Enjoy: ruclips.net/video/2kmPHHCeERQ/видео.html
only thing you can learn from Frederik Nietzsche is how to become a crazy man
Does Friedrich Nietzsche believe that there are only two types of morality master and slave morality if he believes that slave morality have a monopoly on sympathy and compassion and kindness than he is CRAZY .I believe in a third morality The Antichrist integrity that values strength and agency and not being a Christian also being against Christianity also kindness and compassion and Love and HOPE.
Kindness and compassion duos not make you easily controlled and command by others on the contrary it can make you more confident and make you defend yourself and others . Most guy that suffer from low confidence are not the kindest people often because of low emotional Intelligence and thay not know how to be alive .they are low to non in compassion and kindness and love witch make them suffer even more in low confidence and it creates a viscous cycle that mention low confidence and mental agwish . Kindness and compassion is not for the weak it is for the Extraordinary .
Damn Friedrich Neitzche is fucking badas that all im saying! I came to the idea of existentialsim with ever studying ot hearing about it. It just happened that life lead to me this ideal. I respect Friedrich Neitzche so much
A real man should Never be fully ashamed as long as he does not failed to protect those who are weak when he could. Todays shameless men(and through all times) have put those weaker in danger by fighting and so on instead of standing up for themselves and just take for example public harassment adult bullying as a man but instead go into action to protect their ego from something they are afraid of the consequences of when there really is NO such consequences but a bit of embarrassment, and often this is just for seconds or minutes ?
While he was certainly a very smart individual, and a great observer Nietzsche's philosophy was not only paradoxical but also hypocritical.
They say be authentic. I would be sitting on my ass playing video games not talking to anyone all day if I was being authentic. So I have to fake it until I make it but apparently that’s bad.
Didn't know Nietzsche was so judgemental.
Can one not be authentically interested in gaining respect and recognition?
Is the technical audio side of this video horrendous and painful? I think so
How does this work with psychopathy? Are psychopaths seeking mass appeal/attention and praise?
N’s ideas are much more sophisticated than this. These examples are ridiculous.
How many people are authentic recommending this video
He was a genius, seriously. Nietzsche = Niche and is the reason why I felt for most of my life that I did not fit anywhere.
We shouldn’t judge others as good or bad …. But then judges Wagner for composing music inauthentically and dissolves there friendship that was built on appreciation of both their skills ? But I guess life is just a succession of happenings which could be described as acting on personal preferences ( in some cases judgements). But I do get this point that we need to be honest with ourselves and not join groups where we think we can advance ourselves. Not to be enslaved to others and their concepts that we may actually disagree with at a deep level.
Let's say it's very safe to say him and Wagner had a very fucking weird/connected/torn apart relationship. Even Nietzsche is human in the sense of contradictions. We all have that one person that simply cannot get out of your mind. Especially the mind of someone remotely as bloody poetic and deep as Freddies. I understand your point for sure, but I think the Wagner-Nietzsche connection is truly funny, and complicated.
Graham Trave Maybe he learned from that and that is why he is saying you shouldn't judge etc ....you point out. I read he remained on good terms with Cosima - Wagner's wife tried to reconcile them.
Nietzsche doesn't say he is perfect, he rather talks about an ideal of how one can make their own life worthy or fulfilled, that's his concept of the higher man, I've never found he says he is one...
Ideally these are things we should do. He is human. We all fall short of our ideals.
I love the teachings but don't know what Christianity did to you all
I signed up for a philosophy course in college because I though it was going to be fun. First lesson, the italian teacher told us that we were expected to read 200-300 pages from Nietzsche every week. That was my last day in the class
Means you weren’t ready. I have found anything to do with Philosophy I can go right through the readings, but other areas not so much. Give it another try!
@Paul Wolf I listened to beyond Good and evil on audible and quite frankly is beyond my reading level.
I am enjoying this video more than Carl Jung.

After watching this, I feel that Nietzsche and I would have been best friends.
Then again he may have authentically told you're boorish and needy.
No, because he would have been MY best friend 😋
Amor- fati you must embrace your fate
This is coincidental that it is I who said.. “True speech is core free speech.” Authenticity.. is my product. People here and in the psychological world buzz word Authenticity freely but it derives from a logical process i follow beginning in 2004 then expressed publicly. First use of this term in this context.. is name this process to live authentically in the moment… moment by moment!!
What about murderers and child rapists do we have the right to call them wrong according to Nietzsche?
Nietzsche had a big problem with Christian idea if sin and god's judgement and that reflects in his thinking. That said he would be propably honest about it and say that due to the lack of ultimate "God's eye" point of view he can not rationally conclude anything to be good or bad.
In the first rule... In your given example if we start to do it , first of all it's good to know personality traits , this types of traits always put you in trouble it will waste your time, when you have said solve neighborhood problem that's not our work, so instead of doing that we can accept our personality traits and after we need work on Change it, we can't live with that types of personality traits.
Quelques citations complètes et référencées seraient bienvenues.
With Confidence comes malleability in a person, and malleability and tolerance is really the Source of humility, and you can't be compassionate without humility because it is all intertwined in a way. So it's really important to monitor kids/young adults using to much social media because it is a really great way to break down "weak" individuals and drive them into Self-doubt instead of the opposite that is so very much important if one should grow up to be genuine and emotionally intelligent/Compassionate and so on. This is what i personally think but really simplified. 🙂😗🤫
Please continue Nietzsche philosophy
I understand that you can't go very deep into Nietshe's philosophy in 20min, but I feel this "summary" was quite superficial, hence ignorant and "inaccurate", which is misleading.
NO PROBLEM! Park in my spot? It won't bother me! My inner voice said: call an authentic Tow truck and haul the neighbor's car away! I feel good already. :)

Anybody else finds it ironic that a video about authenticity advertises a product designed to hide your identity?
If I may be allowed to be honest with what I felt (by no means do I mean to offend) I could hear the rules of nietzsche as something else. Indeed there were points I simply couldn't agree with but there were points I agreed with but to me they had a completely different interpretation.
🙏 thankyou 🙏
Nietzsche-an unique philosopher
Sounds like a lot of teaching in the book The Way of the Superior Man
The quote at 6:48 “and those who were seen dancing….”
Is that a real quote of Nietzsche?
If so, could you please tell me the book’s name.
Your way of delivering the lecture doesn't sound very authentic:|
can you do the subtitle on your next videos
Shame is definitely used as thought control in 2022
This is all well and good, until you consider his ending. So I take it with a grain of salt.
If you need to learn how to be authentic....then you're not authentic
Wonderful video presentation to advance ideas for a savant philosopher of the ages. Nietzsche's influence is only growing in these dangerous time, and his philosophical and cultural impact has perhaps catapulted him now above Emerson and Schopenhauer to the Olympian level of Plato. With mountain lightning flashes of epochal insightful brilliance in his writings and a seeming OODA Loop strategically, aggressive and dynamite filled writing style, Nietzsche reached the Olympian rings of truth high over the vapid Marxist "intellectuals: of the time. Nietzsche savaged the idols and hollow men philosophers of the day and antiquity. For me, Nietzsche will always be the philosopher for the "day after tomorrow"-- the gauntlet other future philosophers will have to contend in the octagon of ideas, intellectual courage, and exquisite, truth instincts. Steeped in the finest of French, German, and Italian aphoristic styles combined with his expertise in philology and the languages of antiquity Greek, Latin and Hebrew, Nietzsche is a sublime gift to humanity. Modern-day "scholars" are rarely deeply versed in the classical languages of antiquity. As Schopenhauer keenly noted, a scholar will always have a hole in his education without training in the classics of antiquity. If you can read Plato and Aristotle in original Greek with great expertise, you are no longer dependent on some scholar's interpretation of a key inflection point in a passage. Today's professors of propaganda are rarely truth seekers, but merely paid to parrot the establishment line for grants. The professors at the propaganda mills go to great lengths to hide the truth and protect their small moat for either lack of knowledge, courage, or perhaps for sinister and mercenary reasons to keep the students mired in an "establishment matrix-like illusion."
Fortune favors the bold, and in that sense, we all have benefited from Nietzsche's gifts to humanity in his sublime writings without having to undergo his years of intensive scholarship, solitude, sickness, and torment in his relentless, dedicated, and labor of love for the truth. Come out and breathe the pure mountain air of truth where Nietzsche resides. Transcend the matrix and the flickering lights of the cave of modern life as Nietzsche commented, in Twilight of the Idols "..come out of your cave, as the world awaits you as a garden." All the best to those fearless truth-seekers following their own path and rising above the "human all too human" in the quest and adventure for the truth.
I think Nietzsche has always been in a different league than Schopenhauer. Plato (or Socrates for that matter), Nietzsche and Jesus. These three shape todays thought like none other.
To prove my point: every large philosophical movement of today is based on one of these three.
Humanism is a secular version of Christianity.
Scientism is Plato's insistance that knowledge is the only virtue and ignorance the only vice.
The American dream / striving for competence / meritism is Nietzsche's will to power in action.
@@timangar9771 Fascinating observations along with your excellent on-the-mark synopsis. All three of your choices for sure belong on a Mt. Rushmore of philosophical savants. I'm partial to Nietzsche for receiving top placement on Mt. Rushmore, as the German savant is the honorary patron saint of elite Green Beret and Navy Seal forces across the world. Nietzsche achieved this distinction, imo, when he blasted, like an artillery shell, the military truth of life: ".. that which does not destroy you only makes you stronger" onto the spiritual wasteland of modern times. In a world of hollow men, department store mannequin "misleaders" and game show-like hosts receiving university tenure, the call of the wild, the primal urges of nature and the will to power in all full spectrum dimensions are showcasing Nietzsche as truly the "philosopher for the day after tomorrow." Regards for the response.
