The ARI is not a popular channel (about 1/7 of the total subscriber count have watched this video and there are certainly lower ratios on youtube) however I recall many a video of Rand related that aren't on the ARI that also have hundred of thousands and millions of views.
Outstanding. In any given moment, your focus ... your choice of what to focus on ... is up to you. And consequently, the value-significance of what happens to you, and around you, and in the world more broadly, is up to you. Life isn't happening to you. Life is something you are doing. Choose. Focus consciously, rationally, intentionally. Take ownership.
Choose your stance. If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. "If you don't press anything, the next episode starts on its own." th-cam.com/video/gcNtCwi3Wq0/w-d-xo.html
I sometimes feel like him. Not wanting to leave a legacy, like when he askes Roark to burn his drawings. But I get out of it and quickly become optimistic after a brief lapse.
like Erhard says: there's a concealed resignation that lives within us. A resignation that is a call for the will to try again, to give this world another shot, to give humanity another chance.
I desperately needed to watch this. I think I've been turning into a Peter Keating, and I want to stop before it's too late, like Howard Roark would say.
WHY DO PEOPLE HATE AYN RAND? Honestly, I know people say that her philosophy is perverse; her novels badly written. She writes beautifully and her philosophy is rational. It doesn’t take a public speaker to justify her!
Envy. Hatred of the good for being the good. Instead of feeling inspired and energized, as a moral person does, they feel inadequate and diminished. Hence their inappropriate emotional response.
True. But, many a time, when someone packages and delivers the content in a particular style and manner, it will hit many those who may have failed to grasp the beauty or the essence of the original source. P.S. Dr. Salmieri isn't just a public speaker, he's a philosopher and scholar on Ayn Rand's Objectivism.
I think it comes down to the Tooheys and the Catherines of the world. People like Toohey want to cut down Rand because they want control. Either control to make sure others don't outshine them, or a tyrannical control. And then you have the people like Catherine, who are simply brainwashed by the Tooheys of the world and tragically do not think for themselves.
Brilliant! I've only just recently come across Gregory Salmieri. Every lecture is equally impressive, peppered with insights that reveal a sensitive, independent thinker.
At around the 9 minute mark, Keating is trying to manipulate Francon to diminish Stengel as a rival. It's not necessarily Keating expressing his own priorities.
Thank you very much for this prensentation. Because of importance of this topic, it is vital to argue about it and explain it. Unless you know how and why a second-hander thinks you can not grasp Roark at all. After 3 months from reading the novel, all its meaning would be lost for you. Because: you have lost the most important point. By illustrating ideal man, Ayn Rand trying to create or at least guide new ones. If you have read this novel, you can see like Roark you can become one and it is neither unnatural nor “impossible”. It is unnatural and impossible if you hold any premise of second-handness and still to understand Roark, and become a ideal man. So you and i, everyone who did read this novel should examine her\his thinking. You and i and everyone, must struggle to identify second-handness within us. How do i accept melevolant universe premise and about what exactly? You must ask this question to yourself, if you want hours you spent reading the novel to not be wasted. I promise you, you and everyone who do the same exercise will be suprised how much they share in common with all these characters, especially Dominique. Youth, in all around world, don’t want to work, do something important to theirselves because they think like Dominique. Thats why we wonder, why men and women all around the world spent their youth for nothing-deliberately. Anyways, i talked much. If you have read thank you. Please...Don’t lose the hero\heroine inside you. Fight like Wynand or Dominique or Mike. This prensentation may be good starting point, huh? ( 28:01 )

My life has changed ever since I came across Ayn Rand Institute and read Ayn Rand Books.
Which book is your favorite?
Thank you!
I don't understand how these seminars don't have more views

Dr. Salmieri is a revelatory reader who brings to Ayn Rand intellect and spirit equal to her philosophical art.
Wow, good. Salmieri is worth listening to.
And how.

I was making Henry Cameron mistakes. Bitterness and believing that the best doesn't have a chance on earth.

@@madhuvarshkonduri884 Agreed. He's a great teacher and advocate of Objectivism.

Thanks for focusing on this particular aspect of the Fountainhead, Dr. Salmieri, it was something I hadn't find the right words for.

Gguy'
I absolutely loves the dynamic of Roark, Dominique, Mallory and Mike. Gave me the vibe of like “looking for Alaska”
I came for 5 minutes and stayed the whole time.
thanks to @Yonatan who introduced to ARI and Objectivist work.

Henry Cameron didn't reach Roark's level of independence.
It is what the client believes matters, And They all believe they know Architecture better than the Architects.

I like how ... randomly... by chance none of the characters in Rand's books high as all heck on amphetamines..... or are they ??
Are you? If so that would explain the broken English.
