I saw this on FB and thought we could have some fun with it in here:
If you could go back and say something important to your younger self what would it be, in two words?

    Read Atlas Shrugged.

    Dammit, I guess that's 3 words. Maybe "Read Atlas" tho I would have thought I was talking about a map book. "Read Rand"... *maybe that would work. or maybe "Taggart Transcontinental" (that's probably it!) - had I google way back when (heck, had I a computer back when!) that might have worked. It would have had to be something to get me to pick up the book and read it. Once is all it would have taken. Something to get me to read the story of Dagny Taggart.

    Either way - It would have changed my life - for the better - at a much earlier age.

    Read Fountainhead. (I didn't happen upon it until age 37. It's that good that I would use my two words on it. I don't know if I would have gotten it, though, if I read it 20 years earlier.)
