Like many aspects of life, I constantly find myself in the midst of contrasting realms. This phenomenon is most apparent in my two main passions in life: music and philosophy. This platform serves as a forum for me to delve into the intricacies of my musical journey. During my education and research, I observed the staircase leading to a damp and decaying state and chose an alternative route. In a previous piece, I expressed my dissatisfaction with the current condition of academic obscurity. Daily confirmations consistently confirm the validity of my claims in that article. Exceptional individuals carve out their own trajectories. Although I have not yet achieved greatness, my personal plan is to distance myself from the repetitive cycle of institutional academia. I intend to teach philosophy on a part-time basis and dedicate the remainder of my time to creating and sharing philosophical content across various platforms, targeting a non-academic audience.

Uncovering Part 1:

The concept originates from ancient wisdom traditions and Stoic philosophy. It prompts us to detach ourselves from our immediate emotions and thoughts and concentrate on a broader perspective. However, what is the reason for this substance's exceptional quality?

The Latin word "mor fati" literally means "love of fate." Living in complete and utter acceptance of one's fate is the essence of the amor fati concept. You can apply amor fati, the calm and accepting attitude, in any situation.

From philosophical concepts to practical applications, I'll cover it all in this podcast episode.

During the 1800s, the United Kingdom experienced notable advancements in social philosophy and social reform. Starting in 1802, the Parliament of the United Kingdom enacted a series of laws that progressively regulated working hours and mandated minimum safety and sanitation standards for factory workers in the country. By 1847, the country outlawed child labor in factories for children under nine, limited the maximum workday for other workers to 10 hours, and set the work week at 63 hours. Although the current working hours may appear excessively long to us, they were actually considered significant reforms in support of workers' rights during that period. British society was increasingly advocating for legal safeguards against exploitation and mistreatment of the working class. During this period, there was a gradual shift in philosophy and society towards recognizing the need for societal reforms that would benefit a larger number of individuals. The British social reform philosophy upheld the empiricist view that experience shaped all aspects of a human being, and that the mind was passive. Both Hobbes and Locke influenced these intellectuals, drawing elements from their respective perspectives. A conflict emerged between the belief that external circumstances shape human character and the belief that individuals should have the freedom to act in their own self-interest.
