When Nietzsche talks about pursuing power, it's not about dominating others but rather strengthening yourself. Personal power is the capacity to overcome resistance in various aspects of life, whether physical, mental, or social. Just like a fire can both destroy and provide warmth, power can be used to build, grow, and achieve. The more you build your inner strength and the more challenges you face, the more powerful you become, and this process brings happiness. Achieving goals, no matter how small, gives you the sense of fulfillment that comes with overcoming resistance.
