Is nihilism the right path to take initially?

Nihilism is grounded upon the extreme skepticism of faith, arbitrary morality, destiny and artificial authority – Believe in things of which there is no proof. Therefore, to live your life without “meaning”- that is, the meaning that is superimposed as the correct way to do things, regardless of reason and rationality – is arguably the best way to live one’s life - at least initially, as you have said.
