Importance of Interacting with Philosophy

 

In last few months I am experiencing some some positive behavioural changes which I think are worth mentioning. It is obvious that these changes do not come over night but a result of continuous internalization or practice of knowledge, skill and values from long period. I am also convinced that studying philosophy has been one of the key element for such change.
‎
‎The first think I feel is I have became selective in reading. I love what I read, I do not force myself to read anything indiscriminately.  I have become interested in discussing idea, sharing experiences and scratching believes rather than looking for scopes and trends.
‎
‎Second, There has been a change in my attitude towards accomplishment of tasks. The tasks which I wanted to complete at any cost now I take pause, take some more time, thing alternatives with less worries. I do things for pleasure with less expectations of achievements. For example, If I intend to have some jobs or apply for an scholarship I have started to keeping both the ways of accepting and rejecting of my application which had rarely been done before.
‎
‎In short, studying philosophy might pay less but It helps you to listen to your voice and knowing once self and this is one of the purpose of life.
