Hi Peter,

Didn’t find a way to contact you anywhere. (Your web contact button is not working). Just wanted to tell you that I appriciate your content. Very well written and benefitial topics. It also gives me an idea on how to journal my thoughts as well. Thanks, a new subscriber.

Hi,

I wrote that article on the Renaissance Man a long time ago 🙂

One of the books, I used was “How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci: Seven Steps to Genius Every Day” by Michael Gelb. Then there were all kinds of other books I have read throughout my life that have dealt with history and creativity and other things. Other books are an old book by Baldassare Castiglione called “The Book of the Courtier”. Another book is “Seeking Wisdom: From Darwin to Munger” by Peter Bevelin. For the growth mindset, I read “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success” by Carol Dweck.

For my name you can use Peter Burns. Have a look through all the other articles I have written, you might find them interesting. If you have more questions, let me know.

i have been reading your articles for a long time. great job writing them. i am using one of your articles about a renaissance man, but before using it need to make sure that the source i am using is credible and the author is known. which is why i need your last name, and the sources where you got all of this information from.

As for the purpose of this site: Well it is a personal site where I tried to share things that I find interesting and could be beneficial to other people. It started as a fitness site, but then I switched over to other topics. Now the focus is on trying to promote the notion of people becoming Renaissance Men, meaning people with a wide variety of interests and abilities in different fields, that they can then use in their daily life and work.

Hi… well I have been reading a lot about human behavior and things like behavioral psychology and evolutionary psychology and with this article I tried to go to the sources of human behavior by looking at the behavior of our close cousins the chimpanzees. Of course the chimps are not a perfect analogy for humans, there are some differences (namely speech within humans and the way more advanced culture), but there are enough parallels that this does shed a lot of light on how and why humans behave the way they do. The people who researched the chimpanzees are various researchers (like Jane Goodall). I make many references to the different researchers and the books they wrote within the articles.

Thank you so much for all of this: Somebody
