What a great article! You are so right. I tried to look for some life experience of some of the guys who are successful on Medium writing about "how to get your shit together" etc. but I didn't find anything...what I found though were a bunch of other writers who somehow have became successful by writing about becoming successful, overcoming obstacles etc. but what they lack are real stories from their own lives where they can SHOW what they have learned, overcome etc.

I don't know how people can take them seriously
