Then & Now | 5 Useful Things I’ve Learned from Existentialism @ThenNow | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Philosophy is often too abstract, but the Existentialists are known for being (a bit) more practical occasionally. Here are 5 useful things we can learn from the Existentialists and existentialism, specifically Soren Kierkegaard, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Albert Camus.
They are:
Laugh at yourself (looking at Dostoevsky’s Notes from Underground and Camus’ Myth of Sisyphus)
Stop Thinking (looking at Kierkegaard’s ‘leap of faith’, ‘passionate action’, and ‘subjective truth’)
Be Creative (looking at Nietzsche and Heidegger, authenticity, the ‘They’)
All of our Projects are Connected: Treat them like Rocks (looking at Sartre)
Turn off Autopilot (Looking at Kierkegaard and ‘double reflection’)
