Success-Driven Philosophy
ChangeThis Newsletter: 48.05 Success-Driven Philosophy: Finding Clarity of Purpose and Achieving Arete Through Philosophical Examination by Joshua Goldman & Jason Shen despite the somewhat cheesy and overly long title looks to have some interesting thoughts. I think I may try out some of the proposed explorations and methods.
I’ve always had a soft spot for philosophy since reading Will Durant’s Story of Philosophy. For some reason, I find reading about philosophy very comforting. In my university days, philosophy classes were some of my favorites. I don’t know if I have the energy to pursue studying philosophy right now, but I would like to get back to it.

Hey Joel,
We’re really happy you got a chance to read our manifesto, despite it’s work-in-progress title. Our whole point is that developing your own worldview through philosophical examination can help people be more successful. I’ll be posting soon on our blog about what it means to define success.
Cheers!
Jason

I very much enjoyed your manifesto - the title just amused me. It sounds like something that a philosophical paper title generator would come up with. It obviously works though as it did pull me in to read you work. I look forward to reading more on your blog.
