You deserve some recognition! This must have taken you a really long time. Now this is what i call contribution to a community.
I think that alot of this advice is very very good, though it is all admittedly quite vauge... I think that is most likely the result of not having the full article for review though. I would like to say that i must agree with those who are slamming on the music video idea... I think that his other advice on appearance is much better and should be followed by everyone. Cleanliness is something that everyone will value you for.
Everything else seems like pretty common sense stuff, but they are things to think about when you are making decision for your life and even what you're going to be doing this afternoon. I particularly like be willing to take many small losses for a few large gains. Being able to work towards a goal and sacrifice things to get there is very important in life and can easily spell the difference between a procrastinating floater (thats who i am right now) and the goal driven go-getter who ultimately gets what he wants (what i want to be).
