Has anyone explored those "Ultimate Resource Collection: Free Online Courses for Gentlemanly Growth" lists that pop up online? I've stumbled across a few,and while the definition of "gentlemanly" can be pretty outdated,some of the skills they promote are genuinely useful for self-enhancement.
For example, things like public speaking courses, etiquette tutorials, or even introductory ideology lectures can be found for free. It makes you think about what skills are truly valuable for personal growth these days, beyond just professional qualifications. Are we focusing enough on the softer skills that these collections often highlight, like effective communication and ethical decision-making? Or is the whole concept just a romanticized, slightly dusty ideal?
I’m curious to hear what people think about the modern relevance of these curated collections. which resources from them have you found genuinely helpful, and which seem more like relics of a bygone era? What does "gentlemanly development" even mean in a contemporary context?
