Excellent synopsis of Existentialism by JP Sartre. His philosophy is so refreshing and certainly adequate to our times.

Jean-Paul Sartre philosophy of existentialism has saved my life, given me a meaning, and made me realise how much freedom and potential i have in this life. Although similar to Nihilism or Absurdism in their view for atheism/ how man has no meaning in this life, his philosophy offers you specific solutions and the complete power to acknowledge that YOU can create this meaning, and YOU can be your god in this life.

Sometimes we just need to hear someone put together words and in so doing, create ideas and eventually tell stories. We all have unlimited possibilities and we all do ourselves justice by making the decisions to attempt to tap into our vast potential and actually be the person you are meant to be. Of course there is injustice in the world, but im convinced that there are more decent people that there are inhuman humans. I’m wishing everyone the gift of self examination and personal growth. I guarantee, the more one focuses on being their best selves, the greater their experience as they go through this journey called life. Be well.

How beautiful are these lessons! ❤ I'm in the process of rethinking who I am, what direction should I give to my life and all the rest. And this totally resonated with me because it is what I choose to be that will define me, through my actions. Love all your videos. Thank you so much.

Sartre is absolutely correct: Humans can reinvent themselves at any time. We are born with a certain amount of "Genetic Baggage" which can work to our advantage, or disadvantage. Some are born with amazing natural abilities, such as a Michelangelo, Da Vinci, or Mozart. But, for most of us, our genetic heritage plays little or no role in our lives. We are not born with an identity, but rather, we pursue what stimulates us. We study what interests us. We may teach ourselves how to be proficient at something. In the process, are are steadily becoming our own creation; our own invention. But not all persons are self confident. Some feel lost, until they can find some other person to follow, and imitate. About 75% of humans have no clear vision of themselves, consequently these persons may flounder about, until they can join some group, (Of other lost souls), and then allow the leader of the group to do most their thinking for them. Meanwhile, the other 25%, have a clear understanding of the things that inspire them, and interest them. These are the self-creators. These persons live out their lives striving for some ideal, or goal. In the process, the self-motivated paint their own psychological self-portrait! If you believe you are not free, then you will never be free. If you are confident in your tastes, opinions, and choices, then you are a free agent, a person in the process of becoming himself; you are an existentialist, because you create your own existence.

Well said. Although I would like to clarify that Michelangelo, Davinchi and Mozart worked extremely diligently in their areas of expertise. Based on biographies I’ve read, even though they may have had inclinations dictated by genes, they would not had flourished the way they did, had it not been for dedication and effort. Apart from this, I totally agree with your comment.

The best philosophy about FREEDOM ever. Sartre "is" a French and the 3 principles on which the French republic has been based are LIBERTY, JUSTICE and FRATERNITY. We see that those who defined the principles of this republic put LIBERTY first, hence without LIBERTY all others principles, even JUSTICE, cannot stand and are doomed to collapse. Also, as I understand, for Sartre LIBERTY implies RESPONSABILITY, and this most of people do not seem to be aware of. And perhaps this is the main cause of both individual and social mess.

In an odd way it was very noble of him to refuse the noble prize award.

This message is very helpful, many thanks.

And in the end if he is live today,he will for sure say that is democracy nothing different from totalirasm..

It is less true that people mindlessly obey orders than that they do whatever they want -- so long as they believe they can get away with it ! Soldiers, employees, and followers who obey orders do not mindlessly do so -- as if they were robots. Instead, they have already bought-into the reasons for doing so, and they are also aware of the possible consequences for their disobeying orders. These reasons might be legitimate or illegitimate, and the consequences might be real or imaginary, and it might be that someone lacks the courage to disobey when they know (or believe) an order is wrong. But it is less true that people are mindless than it is that they are self-serving and calculating in their decisions to obey orders.

made a lot of notes

"Become who you truly are" ? This seems to contradict the fundamental premise of the existentialist that there is no essential self. You are only, at any particular moment, according to existentialism (as opposed to essentialism), whatever action you are currently taking -- there is no true or essential self for you to become. While I completely understand that 'authenticity' plays an important role in existentialist thinking, it is contradictory to claim, on the one hand, that there is no real self, yet, on the other hand, that someone is being inauthentic. What exactly is this authenticity ? Embracing the supposed fact that you are completely free at every moment because there is no real or essential self for you to be, or to become ? If so, then, how exactly is this being authentic ? To be authentic means to be truly who you are -- not someone else ! But, according to existentialism, there is no real you to begin with, and simply acting will not change this fundamental fact. Why would it ? Actions are only temporary, whereas an authentic self is something permanent. Once a different action is taken, whatever 'self' existed in the prior action will no longer exist -- there will, instead, be a new 'self' that has taken its place. But, in fact, all these momentary 'selfs' are nothing but the actions themselves. The only thing that really exists -- at least if you take the fundamental premise of existentialism seriously -- is a pure freedom acting, thereby creating in the process a series of meaningless actions and momentary 'selfs' !

very good point, i suggested to a friend that they should look into existentialist philosophy and they found this video so in watching it to see if it was a good representation of the philosophy i was a bit disappointed to find out that while some of the things they teach about sartre's work is accurate the framing and interpretation of it is wildly off. this video definitely gives me some strong "toxic positivity" vibes

Eren: it's just freedom 😌

Interesting and valuable way to look at life. However, we are not "blank slates" in a "literal", or "actual" way, although for his purposes it is crucial to believe this. IMO, this is a "hack" of sorts to make his philosophy "work".

For the most part I do not see eye to eye with JPS. Aside from the inferred joke - JPS says we are born blank and that we should live up to our values. But, he makes no description of how those values come to be. If they come from external forces, local societal values, then how is that your choice? That makes your decisions experientialy subjective based on other peoples values of how you 'should' behave. Therefore, not being a freedom of choice on your behalf at all. That's freedom to be who they tell you to be. If however you are born with some form of 'self' to begin with as Jung describes, then you grow to choose to follow or break with your local societal values. Beyond that his position is mostly will to power and behaving in your best interest. Nietzsche and Thucydides.

Of course, Sartre's bad faith makes no sense if we live in a deterministic universe. What would Sartre say about animals? Would he think that a bird is free to give up flying? And why an animal would be defined by its essence unlike us under an atheist's view of the world?

It’s good, but you a take a little of what he is saying and add your spin, instead of the raw data

You make it sound like he later supported capitalism. He was always a communist. He just stopped supporting the Soviet Union. Mao also stopped supporting the Soviet Union

I don't think you control what others think about you, but you can control your response to that. So, the quote “don't let others define you” is not applicable.
