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.

Perhaps in more comfort and less danger, but also in a smaller-minded, meaner manner? … So that morality itself were to blame if man never…

  • Nitzsche: How To Become Who You Are

    Nietzsche viewed himself as the first psychologist amongst the great philosophers. Given that Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, and Alfred Adler, three giants of 20th-century psychology, were all heavily influenced by Nietzsche’s psychological insights, his grandiose self-assessment seems to have contained at least a kernel of truth.  Nietzsche’s psychological investigations were not conducted for the sake…

  • Introduction To Nietzsche

    For Nietzsche philosophy was not a “critique of words by means of other words”. Instead, for Nietzsche philosophy had a definite practical purpose: that being, to facilitate the emergence of the great individual who dedicates their life to growth and self-overcoming. Such a pursuit would provide one with the ability to completely affirm life in the face of…

  • Types of Authority – Max Weber

    There are three types of Authority: Traditional Authority – We do these things because we have always done them this way (culture), and we do not question whether it is right or legitimate. Examples include: – Patriarchy – Rule over others without question – Handed down from the past – Given legitimacy by custom Charismatic Authority –  Different from Traditional Authority but linked.…

  • The Gentleman Movie

    He’s a fox, and foxes have a predictable nature. Trust this Jew about that Jew. If you let him in the henhouse, you can expect blood and feathers everywhere. Brilliance should be acknowledged. You see, I’ve developed a reputation as a man who came up the hard way. You could say that there’s blood on…
