Know Yourself & Become What You Are
To “Know yourself” and to “Become what you are” are two central elements of the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. This was meant to be an antidote to the death of god and the resulting crisis in meaning that would inevitably follow. Nietzsche’s proposed way of overcoming this nihilism was for individuals to create their own values.
Throughout Nietzsche’s works he calls upon individuals to resist the values of the herd which breed conformity and instead to create our own individual values. What isn’t well known is what exactly Nietzsche means by “Know yourself” and “Become what you are” or how one creates their own values. In this video I will explain how you can start your own journey of self-cultivation and to create your own values in the way Nietzsche envisioned.
