For me Fountainhead was not about leadership, Roark is not really a leader, right? That is more Dagny in Atlas Shrugged. For me Fountainhead is about that line where he doesn’t care about the honor or money of having build that housing project, it’s about him having build that housing project. And about staying true to yourself, and knowing who that self is. It’s about not just being accepting but being proud of yourself, and not because others think you’re worthwhile, but because you yourself do. It’s about intrinsic motivation.
Yes agreed. I mentioned more from having read this, I now look to see what people are based on their work and how they approach a work. They say more about who they are rather listening to people talk about themselves.
