Humankind
Life philosophy
Try to understand the other.
from Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman
How to Apply This
- Try to understand the others, even if you don’t get where they’re coming from.
Use reason and intellect – the method of choice among Enlightenment philosophers back in the eighteenth century. Our capacity to put things into rational perspective is a psychological process that enlists different parts of our brain. We need reasoning to suppress our desire to be nice. This is the key to progress.
