The Last Days of Socrates: An Unexamined Life Worth Living

The Last Days of Socrates: An Unexamined Life Worth Living

Socrates questioned everything in pursuit of growth and wisdom - but seeking truth in ancient Athens would lead to his untimely death. We explore the incredible life, lessons and the trial of the most impactful philosophers of all time. Join Sam and Nico in this crossover episode as they mine timeless insights from the trial and final days of the great teacher. You'll reflect on conviction versus compromise, the roots of cognitive dissonance, and what it really means to live an examined life alongside one of history’s greatest thinkers. Whether you want to argue better, stand firmer in your truths, or simply see how profound an impact one defiant man had on philosophy and religion itself - this episode delivers. - - - On the growth mindset podcast with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, purpose, and growth through the lens of self-improvement. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create. Through a process of honest self-reflection of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward, we can lose the ego and build awareness of how to be the best we can be. - - - Connect with Sam: Sam's newsletter on creativity - Explosive Thinking Watch the pod - YouTube (Growth Mindset) Twitter - @samjamharris Instagram - @SamJam.zen Youtube - @Samjam - - - Show: Growth Mindset, psychology of self-improvement Episode: The Last Days of Socrates: An Unexamined Life Worth Living Chapters: 0:00 Socrates as an Advocate of Growth Mindset 02:14 Book review of The Final Days of Socrates 04:51 The Apology 11:21 The Phaedo 19:11 Sam's takeaways of the book 22:02 Nico's takeaways of the book 26:29 Send off Relevant keywords Growth mindset podcast Self-improvement Socrates Stoicism Philosophy Learning from history The last days of Socrates Learn more about your ad choices.
