Tau11 – My Journey of Lifelong Learning

This is a living archive of my thoughts, experiences, and hard-earned insights, drawn from an unusual life. Here you’ll find reflections on the food I’ve eaten, the things I’ve bought, the people I’ve encountered, the places I’ve seen, the books I’ve read, the quotes I’ve kept, and the trends I’ve spotted and capitalized on.

I write this for you, my children, those already here and those yet to come. Daddy loves you more than words can hold. I want each of you to live lives you’re proud of. This is my thinking, in my own voice, left here for you to explore. I hope one day it proves useful.

If, by some unlikely chance, I’m gone before I can guide you in person, let this stand as a poor substitute. But in the more likely case that I’m still here, let this serve as an intellectual archive, a record that I held these convictions long before you were born. May that give weight to my words, and credibility to the wisdom I hope to pass on to you.

  • Nietzsche on the 21st Century

    Friedrich Nietzsche believed himself to be a philosophical physician. One of his missions in life was to help others understand the sickness into which modern society was falling and to offer a cure to the poison of a corrupted value system. “To be a physician here to be inexorable here, to wield the knife here…

  • Nietzsche and Self Overcoming

    Nietzsche thought that the universe was the manifestation of an underlying force that he called the will to power. “This world is the will to power – and nothing besides!”, he proclaimed. Nietzsche characterized the will to power, the basic underlying essence of the universe, as “an insatiable desire to manifest power”. In this lecture,…

  • The Human Animal (The Domesticated and Strong) : Nietzche

    “I call an animal, a species, an individual corrupt, when it loses its instincts, when it chooses when it prefers, what is harmful to it.” Throughout much of history, humans have perceived themselves as superior to all other creatures. Myths of our divine origin and our place at the crown of creation are found in…
