Filosofía Flashcards
Why be stoic (Black Swan)?
The speck of dust represents the odds in favor of your being born; the huge planet would be the odds against it. So stop sweating the small stuff. Don’t be like the ingrate who got a castle as a present and worried about the mildew in the bathroom.
Why not run after trains?
Snub your destiny. I have taught myself to resist running to keep on schedule.
In refusing to run to catch trains, I have felt the true value of elegance and aesthetics in behavior, a sense of being in control of my time, my schedule, and my life.
Missing a train is only painful if you run after it! Likewise, not matching the idea of success others expect from you is only painful if that’s what you are seeking. You stand above the rat race and the pecking order, not outside of it, if you do so by choice.
Opposite of fragile (glass)
Not tougher glass (neutral),
But díamond, antifragile
How does it feel to heal (epictetus)?
“the philosopher’s lecture-hall is a hospital—you shouldn’t walk out of it feeling pleasure, but pain, for you aren’t well when you enter it.”
Epictetus
It must hurt to heal sometimes, pressure points.

This flood of extreme information has conditioned us to believe that exceptionalism is the new normal. And because we’re all quite average most of the time, the deluge of exceptional information drives us to feel pretty damn insecure and desperate, because clearly we are somehow not good enough. So more and more we feel the need to compensate through entitlement and addiction. (fuck)

Como balanceamos la vida (Dreyfus)
Lleva tu vida al extremo capitalista con balance interno, o vida balanceada con desbalance interno
O estorbas,danos tu luz
¿Qué me define?
La Vida es (Dreyfus)..
Desapegarse
Desapega, Todo lo que no seas tú.. Ni nombre, piel hacia dentro, soltar, desprender,
Hacia el vacío, sin negar
Hijxs, amor, familia, gente que ame.
Amar la mierda, el materialismo, el asesino
O me voy despegando, o la vida me da un madrazo
As each day arises.. (Seneca)
welcome it as the very best day of all, and make it your own possession. We must seize what flees.”

Por qué educación en lengua originaria?

Por qué apoyar y comunicar buenos principios (stoic)
Los principios quitan el óxido a nuestra alma..
Some people with exceptional minds quickly grasp virtue, or produce it within themselves. But other dim and lazy types, hindered by bad habits, must have their rusty souls constantly scrubbed down…. The weaker sorts will be helped and lifted from their bad opinions if we put them in the care of philosophy’s principles.”

Qué dijo Marco Aurelio de los obstáculos en el camino…
“The impediment to action advances action.
What stands in the way becomes the way.”
“Our actions may be impeded… but there can be no impeding our intentions or dispositions. Because we can accommodate and adapt. The mind adapts and converts to its own purposes the obstacle to our acting.”
Que evitamos (guck), amenaza
Identidad, más, más
