⭐️ nietzsche - intentions and deeds

what are immediate certainties

beliefs that are understood as truths without any evidence, proof, or further examination

• Nietzcshe views this as laziness and reminds us to be more self-aware and cautious

what does interpretation is falsification mean

interpreting and understanding the world involves distortion and simplification in itself in order to make sense of everything; ultimately leading to a level of falsification

what happens when thoughts arise

thoughts arise spontaneously, independent from the “i” (personal identity), instead, the “i” is an interpretive device that helps one understand the information from environment

what is the will

enables us to be in charge.

• as rational agents, we have a sense of command

• a person is both a commander and an obeyer

why do our actions not always match our intetions?

• humans are masters at self-deception

• sometimes we are not willing to say what our true intentions are and we lie to ourselve
