Life is a funny series of events! Today I reflect in gratitude to a man that impacted my life through his content.
You know you've found someone worthy of listening when you feel that your preconceived ideas are challenged almost every time that person talks...
That's, for me, the case with Stefan Molyneux.
This article is a simple token of gratitude I hope Stefan actually read this.
First time I've heard of Stefan Molyneux was in the hype days of Bitcoin. He was talking to an anarcho-capitalist crowd with Jeffrey Tucker. It was a fascinating presentation. Since then, I have listened to his podcast and videos on youtube a lot and still to this day get challenged by ideas and subject matter expert he brings forth.
Ideas Need to Be Challenged
Here is my personal playlist on video that "stretched" my mind:
It's not about agreeing with everything he says
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
-Aristotle
If it wasn't from Stefan, I would never have question some basic assumptions that I previously held. That's the funny thing with the mind. It's very hard to become conscious of our beliefs until they are challenged or have a light shed on them. I don't necessarily agree with everything he says but he pushes me to look at the fact rather than react emotionally to shocking and controversial ideas.
How someone you don't know can change your life
Life is a mystery. Not too long ago I was asking the government to do something about anything. Now I embrace personal responsibility and private charity. Because of this new paradigm of self-determination, personal responsability and a broader appreciation for western civilization, I find myself working from home and preparing myself to build a family where I can apply peaceful parenting.
