EXACTLY what I thought when I read his post, Shannon.
I didn't "like" the post, because I felt that it was a good notion to have, but in and of itself, if used alone, can be used as a crutch (or maybe even a sophisticated fear-based method of fear of success or failure, or guilt or shame around success) to not grow and seek success and fulfillment, because "others would be grateful to be where I am". So, it can't be used alone, it has to be a part of an overall structure. One in which you ARE grateful for where you are and what you have in life etc., but are still pushing yourself to be the best version of yourself you can be.
That seems to be healthier, and ultimately, more satisfying.
