That would be a valid opinion too. It is a biased subjective perspective based on experience. A rational reader should confirm this opinion first hand before accepting it as fact.

To me,it's as if someone recommended a restaurant for the taste of food or a workout routine for it's efficiency because of their experience,they were stating their experience,they did not need to provide verifiable evidence.

I should have been clearer, I was referring to the part that said "Goal oriented people actually tend to be better organized and get more things done"

That's less like "I like this one food or this one workout routine" and more like "People who do this workout routine tend to be stronger and better looking than people who use another one", or "People who use [some operating system or programming language] tend to be better organized and get more things done"
