Only a few times when I saw an inspirational quote I recognized did I perk up in my desk and show interest during class.
What if you could learn philosophy in a way that is actually fun, practical and useful for your life now?
A way that could help you manage uncertainty, find the mentor of your dreams or help you understand the importance of obstacles and failure and learn why they are necessary for our success.
