About The Uberman
"I teach you the Uberman. Man is something that shall be overcome. What have you done to overcome him? The time has come for man to set himself a goal. The time has come to plant the seed of his highest hope."
* Friedrich Nietzsche *
Hi, my name is Obi Okorougo and I'm a Philosopher. I also produce films & online media, write books, and start companies.
I love having deep philosophical conversations, and I'm well versed in nutrition and fitness, so you'll find lots of that around here. Some of my other blog topics include: expressing yourself creatively, how to maximize your potential, creating and circulating wealth, collections of inspiring quotes, some poetry, and entertaining short stories about my experiences in Life. (I like to collapse timelines and learn from all things and people, so I tend to have pretty wild experiences!)
The Uberwoman exists to create a space for inquiring minds to discover, grow, and have fun. The posts here are meant to be used as tools. They involve: crafting and securing creative space within your life, observing the natural world around you, and increasing your knowledge of self so that you may make healthier and even more informed decisions each day.
But let's get one thing straight: The Uberman is a concept. The Uberman is a principle. The Uberman is an exercise of action and Life, where one must give value to their existence by behaving as if one's very existence were a work of art. So in essence, we can all be Ubermen and Uberwomen, and we should be.
This concept is inspirational and energizing. To think that at our very core we can create and change not only ourselves but our Lives, well, that's something that shouldn't be taken lightly.
If you want to get caught up on the best and brightest, check out The Uberman Starter Kit (a beginner's guide to some of our greatest, most popular blogs, vlogs, and such). After going through that page, you may just be ready to make some rather incredible changes in your Life.
Click around. Watch the vlog. Leave comments (love hearing from you!). And hopefully you'll leave feeling more than inspired. And if you do make those major changes, the world will be better for it.
Strength & Honor, my friends.
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly…who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never known neither victory nor defeat." * Teddy Roosevelt *
