It took me until me 26th year of life to discover and read Atlas Shrugged. When I did, something lit inside me, something I had never been able to put words to before. Why are there so many people that are so lazy? Why can't everyone just work hard and know that the effort they put in is directly proportional to the results they get out? It's not rocket science. In the western world, no one and no thing is holding you back. In the age of the internet the sky is the limit. There are no bars to entrepreneurship with the mask of a computer. Race, class, background, all aspects of an individual are thrown out the window to pave the way for commercial success no matter what. People have no excuse anymore, and yet we still see excuses and complaints. Looters.
Speak with conviction. Be truthful, and act with honesty and integrity in all that you do. Have no tolerance for those that seek to pass off your work for their own.
I am a mechanical engineer in Tucson, Arizona. I don't always enjoy the work that I do, but I take great pride and satisfaction in doing a good job, the best that it can be done.
I look forward to connecting with people in this community that feel the same. My flight crash landed here because I was looking for a Galts Gulch group in Arizona.
Welcome to the Gulch Donovan! Did you find any objectivists in Arizona?
