How Should We Respond to Our Circumstances of Existence in Power?

            Overall an unedited piece by Nietzsche, “The Portable” presents an individuals position in power, over three different main points: self-overcoming, those who are sublime, and redemption. All of these things all of each individuals existence in power; power thus being each individuals will to life. Since we all have and seek some form of power: do we have control over good and bad things? If we deem what is good and bad, then do we have control over the bad? If power is part of nature, how do levels in power rise in society?

            Power is part of our existence. Individual’s should account for and prosper in what they have control over. Label what is good, and let the good naturally struggle with its counterpart. This natural struggle will develop and grow your values, as you want to create the world around you. There will always be someone of more power, but it is not because they have a greater will, but because they naturally have more strength. Your will, in itself, will continue to seek and earn more power on its own, regardless of the fact that you are obeying someone else. Obeying automatically comes with living, and those whom you obey carry your burden on top of their own, and that is why their strength is deemed so important in levels of power. This all, of course according to Nietzsche.
