So, I've been obsessed with Frederich Nietzsche for some time now and have been extolling the virtues of his writings to just about everyone I can think of. I've even received praise from a professor who studies the subject almost exclusively. That said, I've done very little in terms of putting some of the key ideas of his into practice. Essentially, I realize that I've been a very loud, socially inept asshole over the past couple months, unable to string clear thoughts together, have spoken like a crazed banshee, and have lost a fair amount of intelligent verbiage because the need for progressive thought has, on whole, been bashed by academic endeavors. What I'm getting at is that I need to overcome myself. I'm the one with the problems and can't expect anyone to be different. I'm the one who has to change. So, I'm giving the following a shot:
1. I have started a workout program for the next 90 days.
2. I am going to keep my mouth shut for the next 2 months.
3. I am going to keep my mouth shut for the next 2 months
4. I am going to continue studying philosophy. (Kierkegaard seems to be my kick right now)
5. I will attempt to better myself and become a happier person all around even though I realize the fundamental element of being happy is understanding what being miserable is. I think I know one of the 2 all too well.
