Wow, you are not just missing the articles point, but you are turning it upside down. Two examples:

> It takes work to achieve this, just like it takes work to achieve any useful skill.

This is the recipe to have the exact feeling of inadequacy discussed in the article. "Didn't achieve? So you didn't put in the work. Shame on you. You are behind."

> "losers focus on the winners, and winners focus on themselves".

Having to be a winner is the exact mentality descibed in the article.

And your kids not being raised wimps is a comment that just makes me sad.
