Why Humans Will Never Be Content With What They Have – Aristotle, Nietzsche
Update: 2025-09-25
Description
Why do humans never feel truly satisfied? In this thought provoking exploration, we turn to the wisdom of Aristotle and Nietzsche to uncover the deeper philosophy behind human dissatisfaction. From Aristotle’s vision of eudaimonia, a life of meaning and purpose to Nietzsche’s idea of the will to power as the driving force of existence, we reveal why contentment always seems just out of reach.
We also look at the “hedonic treadmill,” the psychological cycle that explains why satisfaction fades so quickly, leaving us restless and always chasing more. While modern society exploits this truth through consumerism and comparison, philosophy reminds us that dissatisfaction is not a flaw, it is a signal.
Through Aristotle and Nietzsche’s timeless insights, you’ll discover how to move beyond the endless chase for more, and instead align with purpose, growth, and true fulfillment.
