We are all in a journey to seek things we already know, but cannot describe. I like to think that our life is more about discovery than anything else. Our worldview directly affects how we interact with the world. If you have ever felt like you don't really belong where you are. You know that feeling of being a dreamer in a small town, then you are not alone. A change in our perspective can also change the direction of your life. More recently, I have been studying the "Objectivism" philosophy. I invite you to have a look for yourself.

As described by the Atlas Society:
"Objectivism is the philosophy of rational individualism founded by Ayn Rand (1905-1982). In novels such as The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged , Rand dramatized her ideal man, the producer who lives by his own effort and does not give or receive the undeserved, who honors achievement and rejects envy. "
Ayn Rand is a lesser know philosopher. She is direct and straight forward I find her to be an inspiration for me to work for myself and create the world I wish to live in.
Objectivism for me is the idea of seeing the world as it is. This involves the task of thinking properly (testing my logic for truth and validity) and identifying correct cause and effect relationships in my life. At a personal level, I have become a more rationally self interested man. I accept my nature of being and acting always to my best self interest.
These ideas have enabled me to take control of my life and be to become more proactive about creating my own future. I live a better and more fulfilling life by accepting realities as they are.
If you want to become some one in life by achieving high levels of production and added value, I invite you to explore Objectivism.

Thank you! I look forward to actively contributing actively.

Please ignore the simple and not so clear post. In the future I will publish a much more comprehensive post on Objectivism.
