I'm curious as to your definition of success. How do you know what my achievements are when I haven't written about them? "Seek the help of someone who has already been there?" Been where? You speak in rather vague generalities.

Also, why should I ever wish to go out into the world and lead? I'm hardly trying to turn myself into a slick PD entrepreneur and lead a social revolution or give seminars of possibly dubious value. I'm merely someone who has had problems, has found some solutions, and wants to help other human beings improve themselves.

I'm afraid that you've ascribed to me goals which are both erroneous and in opposition to my actual ones.

All the same, I appreciate the feedback and your time.

Best,
Andrew

There are thousands of motivators and self-help gurus out there who have already achieved much more than you have… so why should people chose to listen to you rather than seek the advice of someone who “already has been there…???”

Also, the quality of the writing should be improved upon… those articles are good enough to post in a casual forum… but they fails to have the professional touch necessary to reach today’s level of excellence…

So, my advice to you would be to seek personal success first… work on your writing skill… then, go out in the world and lead by example rather than with rhetoric…

Good luck to you…
