So my teacher few days ago just asked us what is our life philosophy, but i couldn't respond that question.

Iwas thinking and i think i just got it: "There might be someone that need your help"

So, now im asking your's. What is your life philosophy /wg/?

Honestly, my "life philosophy", if you can call it that can be summarized by
>work hard
>if you want to give up, don't
>make the world a better place for other people
>leave the world a better place in your wake

Three arguments keep me going right now. You could probably logically refute them, but I don't want to considering how low they've kept my blood pressure. Anyways:

1) All is well. Of course it isn't, but people believe in comforting lies all the time. Why not just cut out the bullshit of other people telling you comforting lies for their own gain, and instead lie to yourself to improve your own well being?

2) Futureproblems. A future problem is a problem that must or will be addressed in the future, and is not of concern to you at the moment. With the right thinking, any problem is a futureproblem.

3) Anxiety can be substituted with anticipation. They're more or less two sides of the same coin, so stop paying attention to the worse one. Anything dreadful approaching usually induces the same feeling in us. Family member about to die? Oh dear, I feel bad about it. Exam tomorrow? Oh shit, I'm going to fail. And so on and so forth. But instead of focusing on the negative thought of some inevitable pain, you should try caring more about the positive thought, which is how great you'll feel when the pain is gone. Think of, say, how life will go on and things will work out as they historically have (if you're reading this, you're still alive and that's close enough). Think about all the dicking around and things you do that you enjoy, that you will once again do instead, rather than thinking of the opposite.

It doesn't matter so I might as well just enjoy it and do pretty much whatever the fuck I want while it lasts while I try not to worry about anything (as humanly possible as I can).

If I end up dead before I hit 30, piss poor and in the streets, or over 90 and rich, I will be dead anyway; the planet and the universe will continue to exist with or without me like they have been doing for billions of years. And like they will be doing for an extremely ridiculous amount of time.

I was doing some work while listening to a song the other day. I believed that the song had some kind of meaning to it. While I was working I realized that I didn't give thought to the meaning of the song. I think that the only reason that song has a meaning is because I give meaning to it. I believe the same with life. Life has the meaning that you give to it, but if you don't think about it then there is no meaning. Hope you enjoy the pape.

The way I see it is everyone has something about them that others don't. It's like a point system, with everyone given the same amount of points, and they are divided differently for everyone.

I myself don't look as great or throw a football as hard as the jocks, but i am friendly and have a good head on my shoulders, something those jocks can only dream of. It also gets specific, like your friend might be better at written tests, but he can't code the way you can, and he doesn't have a political head like you do. You gain points everyday, with everything you learn.

And if you think you were given fewer points than others, you're wrong. Say you went through depression. By being able to heal, it just highlights that you are stronger and can handle more than the others.

My life philosophy is to find where you fit, and you can be truly happy

The way I see it, we all are just tiny people in an incomprehensibly massive world. At the end of day, we all are just humans and we all are just living day to day. The only thing we can truly do is just do what makes us happy. Life can be shitty and unfortunately so can people. Just search for what makes you happy and cling to it. Whether it be a hobby, job, person or so on just keep searching for things that keep you happy. That is what life is about for me, do what makes you happy and while you're searching for those things, you are bound to continuously find things that make you happy.
As well, why give up? If you think you can't do anything correctly, you're wrong. Somebody somewhere loves you or enjoys being around you no matter what you may think. So if you decide you can't live for yourself despite searching for happiness. Live for somebody's happiness. That way you will have truly done something magnificent.

The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we … kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok … But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace. -Bill Hicks

There are a lot of lazy, pathetic people in the world, who are easily manipulated by those with who have allowed terrible emotions and purpose to dominate their lives. There are those who want money and power, or even eternal life, as I've learned in recent days. And they don't particularly care who they have to destroy to get their way. The only people who are truly good, are those who do not allow sex, money, power, greed, or any of the other dark, primal desires to control their lives. If you want to live a good life, find goals to accomplish that will leave the world a better place, and don't allow yourself to be tempted into destruction.

The goal in life for every lifeform is to survive and persist, we are not an exception. The main goal of our organism is to reproduce and with that perdure in some way by perpetuating our DNA, or our "biological identity". But we are not just animals, there's more to us that our genetic code and that is our own personal identity.
For me, the goal of an individual's life is to mould, express and perpetuate their personal identity. Therefore, there isn't a man more succesful in life that the one that makes it to History.
After you die, all your possesions mean nothing and the only that can perdure is your identity: your name, your legacy and the memories.

I am in a bizarre mood and needed some soul juice or something so I came here after years not doing so. I am happy you guys were here. Thank you all for that, being here and making me feel less alone in this life struggle.

To OP, my philosophy is I am not killing myself
1) because I don't have thje balls and don't want to make the people that love me sad.
2) and most importantly, this might very well be the only ride we get at life, I might as well play the only game I have until the end. Even if it is often shitty or confusing.

We don't have a purpose, we don't have a meaning. Just try to accept yourself and help the people that are where you have been before. There are some spots of light worth fighting for. Just take the path you prefer to find them.

Be apathetic to situations that don't directly affect me and cause no harm to others (ex: If gays want to get married why would I care).

Just be a decent person. Open doors for people in wheelchairs and basic shit like that. Do the "good" deeds that should just be normal behavior.

Never be afraid to tell an ass hole they're an ass hole. I might not give a fuck about a good deed people do since it should be standard, but I absolutely hate negative decisions with no reason or logic behind them. I constantly was getting into shit with bullies in school because I'd see them picking on someone.

Julius Caesar has been there for 2 millenia and still kicking. Also, unless they're somehow proved wrong (and maybe not even then), people like Newton and Einstein will be known and their theories studied for as long as we are here.

I want to be the one. The main character, the one who doesn't slow down or stop for anyone. I won't go out of my way to help you, but I won't drag you down. I want to be like Apollo, or DVNO. I'm not selfish, nor do I think too highly of myself; I'm just apathetic about everyone else. I'm not taking my time to humor anyone else, they can all answer to me. That just about sums it up. Thanks for the thread OP, nice to get something intellectual around here once in a while.

"Mistakes make remorse and men learn as they grow up
The bad feelings come draw you to the annihilation
Like many people of my age, I'm guilt-ridden
I have always done everything to dodge responsibility
I often chose to shut up, at least I was sure not to be wrong
But the years the years fly past, and even the greatest people end up falling
In all our adventures, many moments will never be forgotten
If I have to go, I'll dream to have more stories to tell"

My philosophy is that i am existence, I am not my body or my mind, these are simply tools and sensors for me to feel and narate the world around my being. I have always been and will always be even after I die. And with this belief I live my life by the thought of not only self improvement to give me the best experience and outlook possible, but would take the best steps I can to steer the human race in the best direction possible so that I may experience humanaity better in the future, even if I never get the chance personally to be human again after my death.

Something along the lines of fatalistic nihilist + hedonist for the good.

Basically, if our current interpretations of the laws of physics are correct (which they probably aren't but it's the best we've got at the moment) then the universe is doomed to die and everything any human will have ever done, is doing and will do will have been for naught in the end.
Why bother? To sate our senses.
Generally speaking, (the worst kind) all humans have a similar capacity for emotions. My philosophy is just to have a good time, let those cleverer than me figure out the science stuff and help others to enjoy their time as much as I am. We all experience joy and sadness and all that jazz and it'd be madness to intentionally inflict negativity on others when it feels so good for both parties to get along and have an excellent time.

The world will not be healed by dogma, rather by ceasing to be individuals and becoming relationships.

Tl;dr
Have a nice time and help others do so

Friedrich Nietzsche, first influenced by Schopenhauer, developed afterward quite another attitude, arguing that the suffering of life is productive, exalting the will to power, despising weak compassion or pity, and recommending us to embrace willfully the 'eternal return' of the greatest sufferings.

Existential nihilism is the philosophical theory that life has no intrinsic meaning or value. With respect to the universe, existential nihilism posits that a single human or even the entire human species is insignificant, without purpose and unlikely to change in the totality of existence. According to the theory, each individual is an isolated being born into the universe, barred from knowing "why", yet compelled to invent meaning. The inherent meaninglessness of life is largely explored in the philosophical school of existentialism, where one can potentially create his or her own subjective "meaning" or "purpose". Of all types of nihilism, existential nihilism has received the most literary and philosophical attention.

TL;DR - Life is finite and without meaning. It consists of mostly suffering in which we are compelled to invent our own meaning.

Bring a smile to everyone around by kindness, even if that means taking out food of your plate to give to others, do not worry too much about yourself, but to the others, try to not fall into a routine that keeps you away from serenity and peace. Travel and discover a lot, let music flow trough your head to the earth of others.

I had this sort of unusual, awe-striking feeling that I didn't expect to feel when I listened to this song. It made me think of how beautiful nature is. Always embrace the beauty of nature—the softness of the grass, the warmth of the sun, the vastness of the stars. These are the very things that gave rise to who you are, the stars that are hundreds of thousands of light years away to the genes that make you who you are. I am forever grateful to be part of this entire natural creation.

I'd like to add a more scientific philosophy to all of this hormone-revolved nonsense.
Life is about survival. Everything you feel helps you stay alive. Our species hasn't had the time to evolve into better surviving the society we've developed (we have developed it rather fast in the context of human existence) so look at it from the perspective of an animal.
Fear - keeps you away from things that may harm you
Anxiety - keeps you focused on the worst possibilities so you're more ready for them
Love - to ensure you reproduce

You're just the product of something that survived. You are the product of this thing because it just so happens that it reproduces AND survives AND it's produce survives. If you die, the branch ends there. If you survive and reproduce, your children come out just like you to ensure maximum survivability (better to take after something that survived if you want to survive. Right?)

There's no heaven, there's no hell, there's not even such thing as spirits or ghosts. People make these up to make themselves more comfortable. People will always try to avoid the truth because it's so scary and simple and lonely.

That's my philosophy. I'm emotionless

We got another woke nigga o'er here.

You feel like you have your shit together because you know what's going on. You're real. No bullshit. You know that everything can be deconstructed to the meaningless tingle of neurons. You know that we lie to ourselves and forge beauty because we just can't seem to find it. You know that we fall in love with love.
You know that we follow dead heroes.
You know that life is a pyrrhic victory.
But you fail to realize that none of that fucking matters. Consciousness is the manifestation of desperation, and we all desperately want to be happy. When you point out that Santa is fake, God is dead, life is meaningless, you do nothing but crush our happiness. Let us be.

Some quotes I try to live by:

The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.
-Camus

NONSENSE AS SALVATION
The human race will begin solving its problems on the day that it ceases taking itself so seriously.
-Principia Discordia
I try to live without hypocrisy, and act in a way I expect others to act. I try not to wrong people, I try to remember I don't know what's happening with the other person. I try to live with integrity.

It sucks, and I hate it, and I hate my life.
>>
>>6760345
But you kinda gotta stop and think.
What do you want out of life? You want to understand and get somewhere with it? Or simply enjoy it while you're alive?
I honestly don't fucking know anymore. When I think about things from the perspective of the philosophy I shared earlier, I just want to die. I'm tired. I'm tired of everything. Bullshit, people, lies. I'm fucking tired of being tired. Honestly, I might just kill myself if I keep thinking like that.

Maybe that's why we think like we do.
>>
>>6760345
You know that feeling you get when you try to comprehend what it'd be like to die when you don't include spirits, or heaven, or hell?

That difficult feeling. Like a loop. It's so hard to accept. And so fucking scary.

To understand and enjoy are not conflicting stances. I can understand what truly drives our bones and be happy about it at the same time. I am a construct of all that I have consumed and experienced, a physical and mental reincarnation of my past. My flesh is borrowed, my mind is temporary, I will fade. Consciousness is a mirror so that the universe may look upon itself, death is the shattering of that mirror. All of this is beautiful to me.

>>6760382
Death is the implication of cessation, of which there is no such thing. Like I said, death is the shattering of consciousness, but that does not mean we die.
>>
>>6760383
I understand what you're saying.
I can enjoy life and keep this philosophy of it. Like I said before. I'm tired of everything. I have Asperger's Syndrome and I'm horrible with social situations. Worst with jokes. i guess I've gotten better, but that's not exactly the problem.
Every single person I talk to seems so dumb, for lack of a better word. They're all religious or "spiritual". It's been years since I ran into a person who was even slightly like I am.
So it's hard for me to just enjoy it. I can't just go out and have fun or hang out with friends because I don't really have any.
>>
>>6760383
I get that everyone is intelligent and I can learn from them. But it's hard for me to relate with anyone I know.
>>
>>6760385
I used to think like that, but you really have to give people more credit than they deserve. Just the other day I sat down and had a very 'deep' conversation with someone I had no respect for. He is the type that goes around loudly spurting rap lyrics and ironically trying hard to show how little he cares about everything. We discussed what it means for something to be alive, we redefined God, we considered the powers of consciousness, etc. We didn't get any work done that day, but I say we accomplished something. He went on beating on the desk afterwards, but I once again gained a new perception.

>>6760391
I believe Einstein once said "Everyone is a genius, but if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its life believing it is stupid." I'll probably try that. Just sitting down and having a conversation with someone.

Yes, please do. Although many people don't spend their free time studying philosophy, mathematics and all, they do still absorb all that they've experienced. Beauty truly is everywhere. Even though they can't discuss astronomy with you, it doesn't mean they can't teach you wonderful things.

Keep in mind I got lucky with that conversation. I've been trying to talk to people in that way forever and I only manage to truly get somebody once or twice a month. I just say something blatant like, "Do you want to talk about consciousness and shit"? Eventually someone is going to be extremely happy to hear that, I know I would.

I didn't read many of these because they bored me. But mine is that in the world there's some good and a lot of bad, but mostly stuff that doesn't really count as either. The best we as people can do is to further our own ends in such a way that they have as little impact on other people as possible. No crap conversations, no angry exchanges. Give money if you can afford to, keep walking if you can't. Hold the door, say bless you you, keep the honk short when the light turns green. We all want to be doing the things we want to do, why make it harder for each other.

All you perceive is a fabrication of your mind. What you experience may be polar opposite of others. What you perceive to be other sentience could be a creation of your own mind. Existentialism is lonely but if its true your mind has the imagination, beauty and power to create all that. Take pride in it before you put a bullet in it.

of all the boards to find a thread like this

personally, i live my life as close to stoicism as i can. I believe that life is a series of random events, nothing is predetermined, and it's the test of a true stoic to "weather the storm" per se, and to ultimately emerge as the perfect version of yourself, like a rock in a rock tumbler.

Every single person is just like every other person, no exceptions.
Everyone suffers, you're not alone in suffering.
Your brain is a slave to your emotions and that's OK, work around it if need be and embrace it when it makes you feel good.
Do the right thing, always, no matter how much of a jackass or pussy it makes you look like.

Life has no purpose, but life does have emotions and feelings. It is good to be as good as you can.

Suicide isn't good or bad, it's like going to bed early after a long day. It is admitting defeat, but it's not as bad as people like Camus would say.

I don't know what happens after you die. That may make what I just said invalid.

Everything in life is only temporary. You are going to find yourself in an uncomfortable situation and you might not know how to deal with it, but don't worry so much, its not going to last long. So don't be afraid to go down the dark alley late at night, don't be afraid to go somewhere that might cause you trouble, and don't ever not do something because someone else said you couldn't. Learn your limitations and exceed them. The sky is no longer the limit, reach higher.

I love the people in my life so much.

And yet I can't deny in my heart of hearts that I want to make them all suffer as much as humanly possible. I take every opportunity to infect others, friends, family, or acquaintances, with my doubts, my fears, my pain, my anger, anything and everything inside me that is evil and destructive.

I don't know if it's because I want them to know me or because I want to make them as miserable as I am.

I SEE beauty everywhere, I FEEL love all the time. And yet I'm not sure I believe either truly exist any longer.

I would really like to know why the world is so ugly to us, then. I don't have any abuses, divorces, rejection by parents or anything in my past. I've always been charistmatic, had lots of friends and plenty of luck with women. And yet I've wound up with this disgust for joy and happiness in my life, like it's a thinly painted lie worthy of mockery; "what can be broken MUST be broken" - does anyone remember this line? It's like that.

I don't know why I can't just live based on my love and happiness (and that of others).

The modern western man has to realize this at some point:

Life is not about being happy, you are not here to enjoy everything because you simply can't, but that doesn't mean that you have to be a nihilistic and un-happy being, no

Life is about struggle between class, races, nations and individuals, it's about mastering yourself and keep improving, pushing your limits, ignoring all the new-age philosophy that says YOLO or "life is pointless", because it's none of them

Be faithful, disciplined, pure, charming, determined and truthful to your values, only then you'll be able to master yourself and with it the world, this is the secret of the great personalities


So, every time someone asks me, what is life about?, I respond: About mastering yourself, everything else is extra

Do not let yourself be deceived by the flesh

you're confounding happiness with hedonism. You can improve yourself as much as you want, for your entire lifespan, but in the end being the best at everything won't mean a thing when you die. Life is about happiness, it's about finding true happiness, achieving a state of "nirvana", where you can feel good about how you live your life, where you can get to the point where you cease to have regrets.

Happiness is but a mere product of self improvement, by self improvement I don't mean just being better at sports, at school, etc., I mean, being a better human in general, a better husband, a better student and a better person, only then, by struggle and not by desire, true happiness will appear

Again, don't fool yourself into thinking that by seeking happiness you'll get it

The first thing someone notices about me is my smile. You can always find me smiling in almost any situation I'm in. When I was younger my brother use to beat me up almost daily. After all the times he hit me I would be smiling. He asked me why I would smile and I responded that I can't help it. I never understood why I smiled all the time. People think I'm always happy but most of the time I'm sad. I think life has no meaning.I think I smile because I know that all of the pain I went through in my life is for nothing. My life philosophy is to keep enduring all the pain life throws at you because one day I won't feel the pain that is so familiar.

I'll disagree. Facing your own death, whether it comes from depression or from trying to save someone else against impossible odds, is bold. Probably not smart, but bold none the less. I take it you haven't been there yet as it is odd to say, the weak choose to die.

By allowing myself to forget that I am not the centre of the universe, and that allowing myself to think that by moping about philosophy and capitalism I'm not only creating more drag on a system I blame for my continual desire to kill myself.

By refusing to do what I want to do. By refusing to muster even a teaspoon of courage - or even sympathy. By deferring my entire life because it's complicated. By fetishizing money. By not doing even the slightest goddamn thing that could be called generosity. And by complaining about the odious fuckface life that I subsequently live, and which is 100% the product of my own creation, because I have been at the helm of the ship the entire time.

Don't be like me, anon. I think every day about killing myself because in the end it's nothing more than the fear of admitting that I have become a grown infant and taking responsibility for my actions. Philosophy is cool but life is always better. Fear is the mind-killer. You're listening to it speak right now.

Courage and love, as you have been told a thousand times, really are the most precious things in the world.

good luck anon

2. Use time as it (currently) is, something that will never come back.

3. Perseverance is the key to everything. Perseverance = Discipline, Creativity and Faith.

I love exploration and outer space, that's why I have the Enterprise as a wallpaper.

Way I see it is everyone has a purpose in life, you may not be as smart as someone or as athletic maybe you just mop floors, but someone has to do it and maybe youll get made fun of for being a janator but maybe youll change someones life, and maybe you work hard your whole life and have a kid with some girl that may not be the best girl in the world but shes there, and your hard working attitude influences your kid to do great things and work hard for everything he has.


Everyone has a purpose, dont sell yourself short, just find yours.

Hey me too. I've done a lot of thinking over the years. One day I found that my life would just be better if i believed this. Like it just popped into my head oneday. I like it because even if its false, it effects nothing negatively. Its an assumption that can't change anything outside of me.

Life philosophies are interesting because you can only think of them in fleeting moments where your attention isn't captured by everything else that life throws at you... and there may be a life philosophy right in front of you, at any point in time, that you can draw from real experience... you may have even had or will have several life philosophies over your life time. Perhaps that's the underlying point - the only thing that is certain is change. Change makes us prioritise what's important in life, as with change comes death.

So if you know that you will die some day, what is most important to you today? I can't speak for anyone else but I would say family, I would say 'others' and I would generally describe things other than myself because when I'm not having to be 'self-preserving', I'm happier.

I dunno, just figure out what's important and you'll be happy I guess.

Once when I was a child my father told me he wanted me to be a great man. I don't know what he thought I was going to do. My family aren't scholars or artists or leaders of men. We're like cogs in a great machine, innumerable moving parts; worthless on our own but necessary to keep the wheels turning and the lights on. I've seen my family history going right back more than 300 years and we've never been anything other than factory workers, tinkers and blacksmiths. It's hard work for poor wages. No one will remember me when I die, but I built the fridges you get your food from at the supermarket, or made the screws that fasten the hinges to your doors or the cutlery you eat with. I was born to the factories, but before that steam drill shall beat me down, I'll die with my hammer in hand.

A life spent without having built or created something is a life wasted.

Ah! Now I understand what you meant

Try not to be too critical of yourself imo, I'm like that too... It's hard to break the habit. I need to forgive myself for my fuck ups and I'm trying not to take life too seriously.

I find the world complicated too, probaply one of my factors is my inability to act cos I'm too lazy and afraid of the outcome; like i have to know the outcome before receiving it idk if I'm saying if right.
And probably because I'm too aimless in life... I recently dropped out of uni 5 months ago, hated it and made reconsider another career (studied IT, ughh) and no job as well
I have dreams and goals but idk how to get there or which ones the right one for me I guess (big on ideas but no action I guess hahaha -.- )

I think we just need the strength to keep soldiering on through our lives.

Thank you for the wisdom friend, hope everything goes well for you

Life is something unique, is to do what you believe best in the moment you have to do, not to hold on to anything and let it flow like rain, is to live great moments with the people you appreciate and love your company, is to reach to old age and remember all that you did and not what you could do and did not do, is to regret having done something but still remember it as a unique experience, for me that is life, a lot of mistakes and unique experiences that they become legendary thanks to the people around you

Yea man, I feel the same. My family gave me nothing material that would have made my life easier (like somewhere to live without having to worry about paying rent like a cockroach, an amount of money to do something).
But my mindset is to become rich at some point.
I know pretty well that it's not going to fulfill me as a person but I will only be relaxed the day I'm economically stable.

Have to endure.
Have to succeed.
