This essay analyzes the thread that runs from Pierre Hadot to Francois Jullien, passing through Michel Foucault, and which is based on the role of philosophy as a transformer of the self in order to achieve a true life.

Pierre Hadot will speak of philosophy as a spiritual exercise, Michel Foucault as the care of oneself and François Jullien as the apprenticeship of living while existing. The continuity lies in this desire to make philosophy an instrument for constructing oneself as an ethical subject, the result of which is another way of life, a true life.
