We live in an age of unprecedented progress. Advances in medicine, technology, education, and human rights have given us opportunities and freedoms that previous generations could not even imagine. Yet, despite these achievements, many of us feel increasingly anxious, restless, exhausted, and overwhelmed. How can a society that has gained so much leave so many feeling depleted and always lonhing for more? The philosopher Byung-Chul Han argues that this is not a contradiction, but a defining **feature** of our time. In his book *The Burnout Society*, he suggests that the crisis of modern life stems not from **oppression**, prohibition, or negativity, but from an **excess of positivity**—the constant pressure to achieve, optimize, perform, and become more. Han captures this paradox in one of his most famous observations: *"The complaint of the depressive individual, 'Nothing is possible,' can only occur in a society that thinks, 'Nothing is impossible.'"* In a world where limitless possibility has become an expectation, failure, exhaustion, and inadequacy are increasingly experienced as personal shortcomings rather than social problems. Today, we will explore Han's diagnosis of the modern condition, why burnout has become so widespread, and what his philosophy reveals about a possible way out. **Preparation:** You can get a good introduction of the topic by watchin one of the below videos: [Why We're All Burning Out: Byung-Chul](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlRlWuEyt8E) [Achievment Society - Byung-Chul Han | Philosophize This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm56nQ31kBk) **For Philosophical Minds Zurich theme events in general:** At our theme events, we begin with a brief topic introduction, followed by engaging discussions in small groups. It’s all about conversation, not just listening. Also, please note, we keep the atmosphere relaxed and informal—**there’s** **no pressure to speak in front of anyone**. **Important:** When you register for the event, please commit to it and don't be a NO SHOW. Presumably, when the ancient philosophers decided to go to an event, they kept to it.
 We look forward to seeing you. **Payment:** You can pay at the venue (Twint/Revolut/Cash). Thus, if you want to register at Meetup just click attend - no more needed ;). We look forward to seeing you.

In this creative workshop for children and teenagers, we'll create an adorable kawaii octopus together using acrylic paints on canvas. Whether you choose big glittery eyes, funny expressions, or vibrant colors – the possibilities are endless! The workshop lasts approximately two hours and is suitable for beginners as well as creative children with some experience. Step by step, I'll show you how to build your octopus, combine colors, and achieve a fantastic result using simple techniques. It's not about perfection, but above all about fun, creativity, and being proud of your own artwork 😊 All materials will be provided. So you don't need to bring anything except a good mood and a desire to paint! At the end, everyone takes their own painting home. Important note: We'll be working with acrylic paint. Unfortunately, this cannot be washed out of clothing. Please wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. Aprons will be provided, but I still recommend wearing older clothes just in case. The workshop offers a relaxed and creative atmosphere where children and teenagers can try out new techniques, be creative, and spend a wonderful afternoon together. Whether alone, with friends, or siblings – everyone is welcome! 💖🎨
