Here is a page Ed shared on his twitter...then_pulled.

https://www.nytimes.com/

Why would he pull it?
When it says ALL the things he would want you to believe?

Well because of the bottom line, when probably somebody pointed it out to him...
this is how the article ended:

Tip of the Week
This week I’ve invited Danielle Campoamor, a senior editor at Romper and columnist at Bustle, to show us how a little positivity can go a long way when things aren’t going right. (Yes, we mean to fake it till you make it.)

At a time when our culture craves authenticity, “faking it till you make it” can seem downright anachronistic. But putting on a positive front can be a healthy way to deal with the world when you’re down, and it can be a positive motivator to help you attain the personal goals that have been eluding you, studies have shown.

“If you think about your goals and they’re reasonable and attainable, then there are actually a lot of benefits to trying to sell yourself a narrative that you’re not fully buying,” said Meredith Shirey, a marriage and family therapist.

Setting feasible goals, admitting when you’re feeling discouraged and forcing yourself to reach beyond your comfort level can help you strike a balance between getting stuck in your feelings and pushing through them. A 2010 study from Harvard Business Review even found that simply pretending to be more confident can measurably improve your actual confidence.

The key, Ms. Shirey said, is to be aware of your negative feelings, but make the effort to move beyond them — even if you’re faking it.

“You can acknowledge negative feelings, but it doesn’t mean you have to sit in them,” she said.

Just trust that, eventually, you’ll make it.




These are the kinds of people Ed "listens to".
IMHO, he pulled the article, because he doesn't want to "admit it"...

HE IS FAKING IT!

The problem is Ed, the "real success stories", the ones that last...
They are honest people.
They are the ones that admit to needing help when they need it.
They are the ones that are "honest" about their shortcomings.
They are the ones that work "harder" because they know they need to.
They are the ones that strive to improve, so they can be "honest."
They are the ones that know if they "fake it, til they make it", they end up hurting other people.
They are the ones that are willing to help others at the cost of being "honest" about their own capabilities. (self sacrificing...you know a commendable trait)
They are the ones who in their honesty about failures and inabilities actually grow and eventually do "SUCCEED!"

You ought to try it sometime Ed!

Maybe you could find a success.
I continue to try you help you, but you don't get it.

One of the biggest problems is you continue to cut off the people that try to help you because they tell you things you do not want to hear and the things about you that you don't want to face or change...

When the whole world stinks and appears wrong, messed up and "against you"...it should tell you something and it's not that they are picking on you because of "whatever". It probably means the problem is the one you see when you look in the mirror.

When are you going to get a clue?
