Greetings Peter,

I'm sorry you share your name with an antagonist of "The Fountainhead." Ha ha. I'm probably not alone when I say this but I was also profoundly changed upon reading Ayn Rand's writings for the first. Wouldn't it be unusual and interesting if somewhere weren't awe-inspired by them?

I hope your conversion to Objectivism is proceeding smoothly. As for me, it has taken some time. I'm terrible with quotes but I'm pretty sure Ayn Rand wrote about the corpse of a poor philosophy leaving the mind. If I had enough time I would find the exact quote. For me, this has meant understanding that a lot of my thoughts and emotions were basically remnants of a poor philosophy which would take time to correct.

Currently, I feel quite sure I know what constitutes an invalid philosophy such as altruism although I have more trouble deciding what the correct course of action is.

Thanks for sharing and welcome to an informative and supportive community.
