​#PHILOTIMO INITIATIVE

From the ​#PHILOTIMO INITIATIVE

The Philotimo Initiative began in London in 2011, following the realization of a research gap within international bibliography around the complex concept of ‘Philotimo’- a concept central to Greek cultural identity. The idea to explore the “lost Philotimo,” as it’s often referred to by Greeks, began a fascinating journey of improbable coincidences and illumined encounters that led to the incorporation of the non-profit Think/Do startup platform Philotimo Foundation in September 2014.

We are an international group of friends, experts in our respective fields ranging from psychology, medicine, and marketing to statistical and computer science. We began by collecting data and engaging the international community of Greeks to help us redefine the word ‘Philotimo’ (the epitome of human virtue and how to attain it) in the 21st century. The more data we gathered, the more certain we became of #PHILOTIMO’s centrality in what constitutes social capital and good citizenship today across western democracies.

Philotimo is a word that can’t be reproduced by the “system”, upon which the system however relies in its darkest hour to be revived and renewed.

We believe that there couldn’t be better timing for the need to engage in an open dialogue around what constitutes good and what not for society. No better timing to introduce a word like #PHILOTIMO as the antidote to words such as Post-Truth, Xenophobia and the sense of living in a Surreal world!

With your support we will be able to gain momentum for Philotimo, petition for its entry in international dictionaries (most likely right under the word ‘Philosophy’), and spread its meaning globally with ain aim to create a world trend by the end of 2017.

We are currently undertaking the production of a Feature Documentary on the history, theory, science and social capital of Philotimo, featuring experts across cultures and disciplines. A partner in this endeavor is the highly acclaimed production team of “Indigo View” !

All we ask is that you use the hashtag #PHILOTIMO to share thoughts, feelings and stories about Philotimo across your social networks, and in doing so take part in a unique international movement to change the world, one philotimous gesture/hashtag at a time!

Spread the word #PHILOTIMO and join us on this journey!

Philotimo - A Word Without Borders

Once you accept that you are nothing other more than a transfer of energy, there is nothing to define about an I am? Other than just to "place" you as an state of being. To define your state of being, so ego based? 

There is a big difference about what is called the ego. From a perspective of Freud or an American perspective out of a so called state of personal growth. Is there to define a state of being? If so than it is judicious. 

To just be, so to feel "able" to "feel" enlightened from defining of what kind of state ever, the biggest gift to be in a state of just to be? I am, nothing more and nothing less. ;) I just am.

Gary R. Smith
'I' hear you, Anja. 

What you call 'a state of just to be,' I call 'living from the Timeless.'

Yet, we are defined.

You are Anja van Loon, female, tall, 'from the Netherlands,' a Crosspoint Life Coach.

Without some definition, how can a human live as an individual on this planet? Earth is also well defined, in the illusion of matter.

No person can live only in a state of just being.

The closest, while still in the body, is to dance between the Timeless and the Temporal.

So why fight ego, however it is defined?

Who does the fighting?

I have not yet seen a satisfactory definition, and once read a headline, 'The ego does not exist.'

Who defines what ego is or is not?

We could also simply called the ego the defined.


I do not define the Timeless. It is for me a feeling. It is also Placeless. To live and move and have my being in the world, I define myself, I place myself within the undefined state of Being. And dance.

Philotimo definition #3567: A choice in the moment to live from the Timeless (the borderless, undefined Infinite) in a dance with the bordered, defined Temporal, evidenced by whole human acts of eternal qualities.

Philotimo - A Word Without Borders

​​Philotimo - A Word without Borders

Philotimo Foundation

​There is no word in the english language for the random moments that give birth to eternal questions.

No word for the deep awareness and desire to do good, and demand so from others.

There is no word in the english language that blends the sense of individual purpose with the certainty that life is held in common. 

There is no word for doing your work with pride while you expect no reward, or when you’ll always do more than is expected of you, when recognized just once for what you did. 

No word for standing up to fear and still brave the day with humbleness that outlasts all hardship. 

No word for what makes you stand up and fight when you could have just gone gently into the night.

There is no word in the english language to describe love of honor or the honor of love, and the tragic void of one without the other. 

There is no word that measures friendship in a stranger, or for the comfort that fills the empty moments you hold with people you trust. 

There’s no word to say you’re sorry that matters more than making up for it.

No word to measure virtue,  against its own reward.

No word for that space between your freedom and mine, neither for the power of duty to give one’s up for the sake of another’s, none too for the half-heard cry of liberty growing in the stillness between two waves of the sea.  

There is no word to describe the art of unwrapping the gift of life in the present. 

No word for the need to live in a better world!

Philotimo (also spelled filotimo; Greek: φιλότιμο) is a Greek noun translating to "love of honor". However, philotimo is almost impossible to translate sufficiently as it describes a complex array of virtues. - Wikipedia
