It should inspire you to live your live more passionately, to seek God. virtue, and love of humanity in everything you do. Good philosophy should inspire this in you, anyway.

There is no end in 'philosophy'. Engaging with a neverending river of thought, without expecting much from it, observing it, alterating little details here and there, that is the highest of all philosophies.

Do you think it’s even possible today? The world has gone mad, and it’s even in danger. It seems like the good life is accessible only to the very wealthy. Everyone else is stuffed into meaningless jobs and cramped apartments in stuffy suburbs and rotten cities. How do you live a good, virtuous life today?

To paraphrase Aristotle, you must first achieve αὐτάρκεια (self-sufficiency) so that you won't have to bend your morals to appease your boss/company. Naturally this is hard to do when young and you want to live in the hustle bustle of a city. All you need is a garden and books. But who wants to give up their $3k/month studio apartment. The voluntary death must first be confronted.
