Nietzsche just want you to think. He says, do what you do, but do it with your participation in it. This is none other than what Aurelius says, about being serious about what we do, about every minute of our life. We must be conscious, we must be in it, in life. Not only because, I think, that we don't know when the death comes, but because, we are dead already, if we don't act according our true nature and our mind.
It goes without saying that I do
not deny - unless I am a fool - that many actions called immoral ought to be
avoided and resisted, or that many called moral ought to be done and encouraged
- but I think the one should be encouraged and the other avoided for other
reasons than hitherto. We have to learn to think differently - in order at
last, perhaps very late on, to attain even more: to feel differently. (Daybreak, 103)
