Philosophy, often overlooked, serves as a potent antidote to the intoxicating hustle culture. It invites us to pause, reflect, and question the relentless pursuit of success, offering a refreshing perspective on life's true essence.
The art of thinking critically rather than just grinding blindly
Hustle culture nearly killed her
- It was destroying her mental health to the point she was criticizing herself relentlessly and becoming emotionally exhausted
- She nearly fell into the trap of MLM cults
- Many of the things they taught were a copy-paste from books she’s read and tried in the past and failed as well
Philosophy helps you to pull the reins of blind grinding and preaching
Most people on social media are doing it for the notifications or to be some kind of influencers by showing flashy or luxurious objects.
- If you want to spot a businessman, look for the older people or people who are humble.
Balance & Inner Peace Through Chaos
If our vision doesn’t align with the result we expect, we’d be disappointed.
- How do we know what’s the right thing to do for our own life?
- Thinking rationally first instead of blindly going after it makes more sense.
Hustle culture makes you charge non-stop without thinking
It may only work if you know that the thing you’re working on is the one that your skills and the market demands meet
- When we are doing what we love and know that we can make money out of it, that’s breath and life for most of us
- Best to approach it slowly first and examine the things you come across in life and try them out
Philosophy encourages critical thinking
Self-help books tend to be repetitive copy-paste works from other books
- Critical thinking in philosophy is just another level
- You have to experience something in life that drive you to really think rationally and morally
- Philosophy opens doors to discuss deeper and sensitive topics without having hell break loose
- Listen to people, and be interested in what they preach about
