I believe Steve says about the same thing here:

However I bet there are many many more reading this article who know full well they need to provide value (somehow) but are still stuck.

Ok, that i can understand and agree to. Steve has written about these thing previously (try his articles in 2005, they're a bit more grounded).
Steve's argument is thus, if I'm not mistaken:
1. Discover your life purpose.
What Is Your Career?
2. Figure out what your strengths are and how you want to fulfill your life purpose. This is two-fold, it feels great to express your strengths. The second is that everyone has strengths that improving returns exponential returns because not everyone has these strengths.
Discover Your Strengths
3. Combine your unique purpose + your unique strengths to build a career that provides the value you want, which is an expression of your life purpose.
Do You Have a Deeply Fulfilling Career?
4. Don't be a self-sacrificing martyr, accept the money that rightfully comes your way. You can choose to give it away after you get it, but accept it.

Anyhoo, your claim that his advice is incomplete is inaccurate, IMO. I dunno how long you've been following his blog or how many entries you've read, but a lot of the stuff you say is missing is in there, though it can take some time to find it all.
That said, you're more than welcome to create a more comrephensive collection of ideas on how to discover your life purpose and find a career parth that suits you, whether in employment or self-employement. I'm sure many people would be interested and consider it valuable.
Alternatively, its unclear what level of analysis you want to talk about this at:
Mental Structure: Levels of Analysis | Mind-Manual
IE, purpose is high level, but a career is lower level, choosing whether to be self-employed or have a job or both is at a lower level, let's the lowest level is tweaking your resume so you can find a better job, or the specific actions necessary to start your own business. Which level do you want to talk at?
The lowest level might be very specific like, what's the next action I need to take to start a business in the chrome cleaning industry?
Edit, apparently he did a series on creating a career here:
