A few episodes back, we discussed how subjectivism became extreme in our society, which is apparent when we see the popularization of terms like ‘alternative facts’ and ‘fake news.’ And we can thank Descartes for that.

 

However, even with this subjectivist approach to life, people are not living in accordance with Descartes’ philosophy and examining their perception of the world. Instead, we settle into our beliefs in early adulthood and steadfastly resist being anything different, even for a little while.

 

Today I present to you a different model for living life; a model characterized by the embodiment and sampling of different philosophies and ways of being.

I’d love your feedback. Click here to leave a rating & review for the show on iTunes.
