You'll NEVER want to be SMART ever again: Schopenhauer's Secret PhiloNautica
I've included two main characters in the script: Elliot from Mr. Robot and Dwight Schrute. Both had their own brand of dumb, but they weren't ignorant at all. In fact, they were incredibly sharp in their own ways, almost like they were unintentionally following Arthur Schopenhauer’s strategies. Not that I want you to be like Dwight—it's just an example. But seriously, I'm a huge fan of that show. Anyhow here's the summary of whole video.
Arthur Schopenhauer, the German philosopher, proposed a unique approach to achieving success: the art of playing dumb. This strategy can help individuals gain respect and reach their goals without appearing arrogant.
One key insight is the art of surprise; by embracing the element of surprise and appearing weaker than you truly are, you can gain an advantage at critical moments. Sun Tzu's adage, “All warfare is based on deception,” underscores the effectiveness of this tactic in everyday situations.
Another important aspect is understanding the value of listening. Wisdom lies in knowing when to speak and when to listen. By gathering information from those around you, you can offer valuable insights at the right time, embodying the wisdom expressed by Plato: “Wise men speak because they have something to say; fools because they have to say something.”
Schopenhauer also suggested letting others think they've solved their problems on their own. By playing dumb in conversations, you can subtly guide discussions, making others feel empowered and respected while maintaining your own insights.
