if the only way to prevail is to live your life as a free man, then did Ayn Rand follow her own advice; she wrote and was very influential in shaping others opinions, didn’t she accomplish far more through her efforts than she ever could have by only living life as a free person?
“... didn’t she accomplish far more through her efforts than she ever could have by only living life as a free person?”
Her “efforts” were how she lived her life as a free person. Do you think a free person does nothing?
Don’t mean to sound abrupt, and sorry if I have. I appreciate the question, and I know you’ll see the answer immediately.

I think the full extent of the influence of Ayn Rand’s works will be realized in the not-to-distant future...As our government becomes more and more out of control, crime continues to run rampant and other ills, the desire for freedom and our founding principles will only grow and lead to a significant political movement.
