If you don't believe in free will then there's no reason to discuss how to be successful. Any `how to` discussion presumes free will as a fundamental axiom.

- iratewizard 4y agoNot necessarily. An automaton without free will can consume and become the hundreds of bits and pieces of philosophies that are laid out in front of them. You might imagine the automaton to be like Kirby in the original Nintendo games. Never intending to become the laser Kirby, but instead being pulled by the invisible hand of fate (user input) and becoming a crude mockery of the things that cross its path. Note that I don't believe any of this to be true, but it's an interesting thought experiment.
