Overthinking: The Silent Killer of Happiness (Schopenhauer's Wisdom)


Listen Later

Ever wonder why the smartest people sometimes seem the most unhappy? Dive into the dark secrets of intelligence with philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. In this eye-opening exploration, we uncover his radical views on why intelligence can be a double-edged sword, amplifying suffering and fueling our insatiable desires. Discover how our brilliant minds can become our own worst enemies, and how the pursuit of knowledge can lead us down a path of existential dread. But there's hope! We'll also explore Schopenhauer's powerful antidotes, including the art of quieting the will, the importance of aesthetic experiences, and the radical path of letting go of the self. This video will challenge everything you thought you knew about intelligence and offer a profound new perspective on the pursuit of happiness.
