The Great Thinkers

A space dedicated to pure philosophy.

Here, we explore the thoughts of Carl Jung, Nicholas Machiavelli, Seneca, and the greatest minds in history.

A book should break you open.

Kafka: a book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us. If it doesn't disturb you, it didn't reach you.

📚 What book cracked you open?

What gives you energy drains them. What saves them bores you.

Jung's point:

There is no single right way to live. What is essential to one person is meaningless to another stop arguing about it.

💬 Introvert or extrovert ?

Read what hurts.

Franz Kafka: only read the books that wound and stab you he ones that wake you up. Comfort reading changes nothing.

Read that twice. 👇

We assume selfish people love themselves too much.
Fromm says the opposite: they can't love at all not others, not themselves.

Selfishness isn't excess self-love. It's the absence of love, turned outward.

We spend so much of life preparing for what we think will happen… only to discover that life rarely follows the script we wrote for it.

Stop trying to predict every chapter because you’re not meant to know everything that comes next. #seneca #stoicism #psychology #usa

Stop running from the darkest part of yourself.
It may be trying to show you something.

The things we refuse to face can hold the key to understanding who we really are.

@sirtrickzz faith is the only thing that keeps you moving when you can’t see where the road is leading. 🤷🏽

@wisdomXplorer the person you thought would stay forever was only meant to be part of the person you became.

[The Great Thinkers @greatthinkers11]

@sheddy_memes Your success is coming. But first, life will test whether you’re ready to receive it.

@Yudhisthiraa112 Only you can answer that , because nobody else knows the difference between who you are and who you’re pretending to be.

Only you live with both versions.
