As a physicist you surely had math. Philosophy is pretty much exactly the same as pure mathematics, but with words. It's a game, not to be taken seriously. It's chess. To try to apply metaphysics to real life is a misunderstanding of the game that philosophy is. Just like you wouldn't apply chess strategies to real warfare. i guess killing the king is a good startegy and I am sure the queen fucks pieces across the board in real life, too. however it would be very unwise trying to collapse a tower to bury a measly rook -except if the rook was just about to transition into a queen, that is.
