I'm having real trouble with this text. The author's pompous ego makes it hard to take any of this seriously, which, at least, he does admit. But still, the style on this piece makes me wonder if it's a professional deformation of sorts - talking about one's lack of fulfillment while throwing in pointless metaphors and buzzwords, hyping up his genius. If this is meant to be a piece the reader should connect to - how will they do that when the post is half-confessional, half-promotional? Many people could connect to the idea that daily chores waste their precious time on this planet, but when he tries to sell himself as the equivalent of a rock star... Not to mention that broadcasting one's complete lack of preparation for parental roles is baffling to me. This isn't a feel-good post about learning to be a better parent, it's a post about living up to a bare minimum of standards while also peddling his services.
