4 Practical Ways to Apply Philosophy That Will Change Your Life
Application is what matters
Philosophy is the study of how one can live through wisdom. That includes important things like learning the best ways to think, make decisions, and act in different situations of your life.
Unfortunately, philosophy tends to be taught quite poorly in schools. It is seen as more of an abstract discipline where everyone thinks theoretically, without consideration for real-world application.
But the philosophers of old weren’t monks or sages that locked themselves up in the library to ponder theories. They were practical students of life, and they created many of their own ways of applying philosophy in the real world. The application really is the only way to bring out the best that philosophy has to offer.
Today, we will look at 4 practical ways to apply philosophy that may very well change your life. From there, we can get the best that philosophy has to offer and ultimately improve our wisdom.
