- In Ancient Greece, when Socrates was asked to sum up what all philosophical commandments could be reduced to, he replied: ‘Know Yourself’. Self-knowledge matters so much because it is only on the basis of an accurate sense of who we are that we can make reliable decisions - particularly around love and work. A School of Life essay book claimed to take its readers on a journey into our deepest, most elusive selves and arm us with a set of tools to understand our characters properly, allowing us to come away with a newly clarified sense of who we are, what we need to watch out for when making decisions, and what our priorities and potential might be.
