Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods "We shall not grow wiser before we learn that much that we have done was very foolish." — Friedrich August von Hayek Perhaps the greatest economic mind ever, Friedrich Hayek also knew that in order to gain more wisdom about yourself, you have to analyze your past and unearth its foolishness. You see, it is chiefly through our mistakes that we become better people. This is true in nearly every aspect of life, including our past foolish investing decisions.

Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods "A man can do all things if he but wills them." — Leon Battista Alberti, Renaissance architect The wisdom of the Renaissance era is unparalleled in history, as that is when humans were celebrated for bringing reason, knowledge, multiple interdisciplinary skills and a fresh outlook to the world and its challenges. In many ways, I strive to emulate the ideas of Alberti and his fellow Renaissance men. In my view, there is no nobler pursuit.

Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods This insight was inspired by American author and activist Helen Keller. "Life is either a great adventure or nothing." — Helen Keller I've always believed that life is a goblet to drink from. With all the intellectual discoveries to make, experiences to embrace, relationships to nurture and success to capture… why would anyone be happy settling for less? So, the next time you feel unmotivated in life, remember this saying from the great Helen Keller. May it kick you into high gear.

Rejoice in Discovery Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods This insight was inspired by the inquisitive mind of Richard Dawkins. "Isn't it sad to go to your grave without ever wondering why you were born? Who, with such a thought, would not spring from bed, eager to resume discovering the world and rejoicing to be part of it?" –Richard Dawkins The eminent scientist, author and eloquent advocate of reason certainly has keyed into the incredible passion that lies at the heart of living a learned life. The quote here should give us all cause for reflection on the importance of a healthy thirst for lifelong knowledge.

This insight was inspired by the film character Homicide Inspector Harry Callahan more affectionately known to action film aficionados as Dirty Harry. "Nobody, I mean NOBODY puts ketchup on a hot dog." –"Dirty Harry," in Sudden Impact Although it is true that nobody should ever put ketchup on a hot dog, sometimes it's true that doing things differently than everyone else will allow you to change the world. In fact, looking at the world differently, and doing things the way you "shouldn't," is what progress is all about. So, don't put ketchup on that hot dog — but do look at the world through your own lens.

Significance of July 22nd Welcome to today's audio presentation from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods

It's July 22, and for lovers of literature, and specifically those who love the work of novelist/philosopher Ayn Rand, today's date has a certain glorious significance.

In Rand's magnum opus, Atlas Shrugged, July 22 is the date that the John Galt Line is officially opened.

Now, if you're not familiar with the novel, just start reading it today. You can write in and thank me in about a month when you've finished.

If you are familiar with this masterpiece, you know that the John Galt Line is the transcontinental railroad built by the protagonist Dagny Taggart. A transcontinental railroad made with a new kind of metal, Reardon Metal, which lasts three times longer than any other metal and which costs less to produce than other metals, thereby allowing its inventor, Hank Reardon, to capture huge profits.

Today's reading is a selection from Rand's opus, read by Heather Wagenhals. Here we enter into chapter eight and the scene where Dangny Taggart is holding a press conference regarding the first run of the controversial John Galt line. Thank you for listening to this audio presentation. For more great resources and inspiration visit WayOfTheRenaissanceMan.com Now, we want to hear from you!

Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods This insight was inspired by English novelist, poet, critic and teacher Sir Kingsley Amis. "Self criticism must be my guide to action, and the first rule for its employment is that in itself it is not a virtue, only a procedure." — Kingsley Amis Knowing yourself and being able to criticize yourself is crucial to becoming a better person. Yet doing so shouldn't be looked at as a virtue. Rather, it should be thought of as a task you undertake constantly to help you hone your personal blade. Think of it this way and you'll be on the road to heightened self-improvement before you know it.

The Requirement of Tyrants Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods This insight was inspired by American economist, commentator, and academic, Walter E. Williams. The Requirement of Tyrants "One does not have to be in favor of death camps or wars of conquest to be a tyrant. The only requirement is that one has to believe in the primacy of the state over individual rights." – Walter E. Williams, professor of economics, George Mason University The always provocative Walter Williams is full of wisdom and insight on myriad matters, and here he cautions us against the potential consequences of allowing the state to take precedent over the individual. That, he so eloquently points out, is the only requirement of tyrants.

Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods This insight was inspired by actor, director, martial artist, and philosopher, Bruce Lee. The Wisdom of Life and Time "If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of." –Bruce Lee We're all guilty of wasting a bit of time here and there, but what the great martial arts master reminds us is that life and time are basically the same attribute. Therefore, it's incumbent upon you to not squander time — provided, of course, you passionately love and value life. I know that's the way I feel, and I suspect you do, as well. So don't waste time any longer. Choose to become the person you always imagined you could be, and take the action needed to make that vision a reality.

Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods This insight was inspired by American singer-songwriter Ryan Bingham. Crazy Heart Wisdom And this ain't no place for the weary kind And this ain't no place to lose your mind And this ain't no place to fall behind Pick up your crazy heart and give it one more try –Ryan Bingham, "The Weary Kind" This Oscar winner for best original song, "The Weary Kind" is from the excellent film, "Crazy Heart." The lyrics tell the listener what to do when things get really difficult. You see, this world is no place for the weary, nor is it a place that rewards a lack of focus or a stumble. Sure, these things happen to all of us, and it can make your heart crazy. But our only option in life, if we wish to achieve happiness, is to pick up that crazy heart, and give it one more try.
