As much as I like some of what I learned from Tim Ferriss' stuff, there is something really weird about how so many young white male professionals seem to idolize him as the end-all-be-all of personal and professional development.

There seems to be a commonly missed lesson in what he teaches which is that his solutions work for a large number of people, but if you aren't critical of the advice you may find much later that you aren't in that group and have wasted a lot of time.

Like, if you're just taking what worked for successful people, you are failing to do anything for anyone who runs into problems along the way and needs a different approach.
