I don’t think it’s cheap advice. He may have spent a lot of time writing it.

The only thing I read that was humorous and slightly wrong was the interesting take on meditation: getting bored more often.

I enjoy quiet, so I’d be a “zen master” according to the post, at least for some minutes each day. But those who know me would not confuse me with a zen master.
