Abstract
This paper outlines the argument that Philosophers tend to seek an understanding based on life
existence and reality. They also discover the absolute nature of truth and knowledge hence
acquiring a fundamental value balance and significance of life. Their curiosity and desire make
them become successful in research regarding people relationships, humanity and society. There
we can argue that a person can become successful in life by becoming a philosopher
Introduction
Philosophy can be defined as the study of the significant nature of skills, knowledge, reality,
existence, and attitude and acts as a key principle of behavior.1 The ultimate work of a
philosopher is typically involved in diplomatic skills, social work, education, law, and religion as
a career.
When we consider success, the primary thing that rings a bell is an individual accomplishing
something extraordinary. In any case, how is that accomplishment estimated? Well, there is no
response to that as progress can't be quantitatively estimated. One can't take a gauge to quantify
the measure of accomplishment an individual has accomplished, nor is it conceivable to gauge
the measure of achievement the individual has come to from their diligent work. So what is the
genuine estimation of achievement? In my argument, the genuine estimation of success can be
recognized when a demonstration performed by an individual surpassed societal expectations
and understanding provided by skills of being a philosopher.2
Research questions
Philosophers are able to be successful as a result of understanding the world they live in and their
relationship with other people. They are able to answer, evaluate and reason out some complex
questions such as;
• What is it to be a human?
• What is the human personality?
• Are we in charge of what we do, or would we say we are simply powerless casualties of our
qualities, condition, and childhood?
• Is there a Divine being?
• What is the best kind of life to live?
• What is joy? Would we be able to want to accomplish it? Is it what is important most
throughout everyday life?
