  How to Overcome Yourself | Nietzsche’s Superman | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 19m

  How to Overcome Yourself | Nietzsche’s Superman Nietzsche’s concept of the Superman (or Übermensch) is one of his most famous and controversial ideas, as it goes vastly against normative perceptions of what’s good and evil. Nevertheless, the Superman is an ideal human being that Nietzsche believed we should all strive to become. This video explores Nietzsche’s philosophy and the concept of the Superman, and how to overcome yourself in light of it.Video: How to Overcome Yourself | Nietzsche’s Cure for Nihilism: The SupermanSupport the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

  Let It Go, Ride the Wind | The Taoist Philosophy of Lieh Tzu | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 16m

  Let It Go, Ride the Wind | The Taoist Philosophy of Lieh Tzu Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/The Lieh Tzu contains many stories with philosophical themes like the nature of reality, the purpose of life, and the workings of the mind. One theme that runs like a thread through this ancient scripture is the tendency of human beings to stand in their own way and thereby sabotaging a spontaneous, effortless mode of living.Dominated by a mind burning with desire, anxiously trying to control the uncontrollable, we’ve become unwilling and unable to let the universe run its natural course, as we have exchanged spontaneity for fear. And the more we fight the universe, the more painful our lives become, as things inevitably change in directions we don’t like.But how can we reembark the natural flow of life? What if we dare to let go of our attachments and desires, our fears and inhibitions, and become as light as a feather, like Lieh Tzu? This video explores the Taoist philosophy of Lieh Tzu on how to let go and ride the wind.Support the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

  Letting Someone Go | Taoism for Broken Hearts | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 15m

  Letting Someone Go | Taoism for Broken Hearts Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/The philosophy of Taoism revolves around letting go, accepting, yielding, and going with the flow. All Taoist sages seem to agree that it’s better to be detached and indifferent, allow change to happen, and move along with life’s constant transformations than to resist change and cling to what’s already in the past.When we are romantically involved with someone, we often see the opposite happening of what the Taoists teach. We attach, we cling, we control, and we’re usually very fearful of being abandoned by the person who generates immense bliss within ourselves. At the peak of the socalled honeymoon phase,’ when everything seems carefree, joyful, and happy, we wish it would never end. But as we all know: this period of mutual infatuation never lasts.No feeling is final. The changing nature of our emotional world causes us to fall out of love, sometimes as quickly as we fall in love. When feelings change, the relationship changes. Frequently, the consequence of declined feelings of attraction, for whatever reason, is a breakup. Such a drastic change is challenging to handle, especially when the decline in attraction isn’t mutual.For some, it takes years (or even a lifetime) to get over someone. Others never truly accept the breakup and move Heaven and Earth to win back their old flame, to no avail. When we cannot change outside circumstances, the only way to move forward is to change ourselves, including how we look at the situation at hand. The Taoist ideas in this video could help us see the breakup (and heartbreak in general) in another light.Letting Someone Go | Taoism for Broken HeartsSupport the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

  Why Patience is Power | Priceless Benefits of Being Patient | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 19m

  Why Patience is Power | Priceless Benefits of Being Patient Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/Not only is impatience unpleasant, but it’s also pointless. Impatience is the unwillingness to live life at the pace it actually happens; we wish for the universe to bend to our will. We want things now. We want things to change in an instant. But in reality, external circumstances are not up to us: no matter how much we wish that to be the case. Patience, the opposite virtue, is based on the acceptance of what is.Video: Why Patience is Power | Priceless Benefits of Being PatientSupport the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

  Why Not Needing People is Great | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 3m

  Why Not Needing People is Great Not needing people can be a blessing. No matter where we look, when people come together, there’s always some form of turmoil, be it gossip, bullying, people antagonizing each other, or fights. When people depend on each other, it’s the unfortunate part of the deal. But if we don’t need these people, we don’t have to tolerate their behavior; we don’t have to bear the cross of associating with those we don’t like just to get our needs met.Check out the full video: https://youtu.be/FShlGToheno#solitude #loner #notbelonging Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.

  Why close relationships suck (and why they don't) | The Hedgehog Dilemma | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 3m

  Why close relationships suck (and why they don't) | The Hedgehog Dilemma The beauty of superficial relationships is that the lack of emotional investment in one another (for the most part) exempts us from being hurt by this association. When shared moments and memories are few, when there’s no commitment, when any form of interdependence is absent, then not much is lost when the relationship ends. Also, because of the lack of knowledge about one another and any significant involvement in each other’s lives, it’s difficult for emotional injury to occur. However, the downside of superficial relationships (or no relationships at all) is that we lack the warmth, intimacy, and other benefits of being close to someone.

  Let Go of the Past (Marcus Aurelius) | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 3m

  Let Go of the Past (Marcus Aurelius) Marcus Aurelius stated that the past “signifies as much as nothing and is at present indifferent.” It’s not that events that have happened in the past don’t influence the present or that we cannot learn from past events. It’s just that we cannot work with the past, as it’s out of our reach. And often, our memories of the past are scrambled, and ways to verify what exactly happened are limited.The full video is available here: https://youtu.be/LGXRpbDuDGE#stoicism #marcusaurelius #stoicism Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.

  Outsiders & Outcasts (For Those That Don't Belong) | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 12m

  Outsiders & Outcasts (For Those That Don't Belong) From the moment we are born as human beings, the people around us prepare us to fit the herd. We start out as being part of a family, and then we expand our social life with friends, acquaintances, colleagues, and, in many cases, a significant other. People tend to work together and spend time with each other, and thus, they form a welloiled machine called society.Living among the herd has many benefits, like safety, security, access to other people including potential mates, and a shared identity that creates a sense of self. But in some cases, the herd doesn’t want you anymore, and you become an outcast. Or you don’t want the herd anymore, and you become a recluse. Or, perhaps, a little bit of both.No matter what the reason is: some people just don’t seem to belong. And when you don’t belong, you’re an outsider; an outcast. So, how do we handle being an outsider? What about those that don't belong?This video explores the fate of those outsiders and outcasts that live outside the herd.Support the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

  Signs of a Toxic Friend | Buddhist Philosophy | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 15m

  Signs of a Toxic Friend | Buddhist Philosophy But whether or not a friend is toxic can be challenging to determine, especially when we’re attached to this friend. For a significant part, whether someone’s behavior is desirable or not is pretty subjective. Also, people are rarely entirely bad; most (if not all) human beings have positive sides as well. So, how do we decide if a friend is actually an enemy in disguise? What are the signs of a toxic friend?The Buddha may have some valuable answers to this question. The Sigalovada Sutta, a Buddhist text, teaches us the Buddha’s views on friendship. He rationally explains why we shouldn’t be hanging out with certain people and what kinds of people we should associate with if we consider our wellbeing.Support the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

Worries and wishes fill our minds, and we’re always restless because we fail to distinguish the forest from the trees.

  Can Money Buy Happiness? Yes, According to Philosophy & Science | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 20m

  Can Money Buy Happiness? Yes, According to Philosophy & Science Money makes the world go round. Aside from an extreme minority, we all need money to live our lives. But there are differences in how we handle money and how we experience its value. Some get by with little, and others are perpetual squanderers. Some are perfectly content earning a modest salary supporting their frugal lifestyles; others have millions, live lavishly, and only crave more. So it seems that the amount of money you have doesn’t correlate with how happy you feel. But does that mean that money cannot buy you happiness? Not necessarily.Video: Can Money Buy Happiness?

  The Power of 'No' | Einzelgänger 12.08.2026 10m

  The Power of 'No' It’s a short simple word: ‘no’.But for some people, it’s extremely difficult to use nonetheless. Especially socalled ‘people pleasers’ have difficulties saying ‘no’ to the people they intend to please. Which is a shame, because the ability to say ‘no’ not only helps us to not do things that we don’t want to do; it’s also a deciding factor whether or not we’re able to commit to a task and to achieve certain goals. Moreover, the word ‘no’ helps us to stick with our values and principles.In the word ‘no’ lies great power. And in order to wield this power, it’s essential to see the workings of ‘no’ and how applying ‘no’ more frequently and in the right ways can make our lives better.This video explores the power of ‘no’.Support the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?
