Nice to see the author takes his own advice. Especially the bits about not working hard, not innovating and copying other people.
I added up every material possession I always dream about: two really nice houses, a speed boat and a yacht, tons of furniture for the houses, about 6 cars and trucks that I love, etc.
It came out to "only" $4.4 million. That exercise actually really helped me. $4.4 million actually sounds "doable" in some abstract way, where as $440 million doesn't.

When a blog post's advice starts with "take a break," I know it will be a fluff piece with no actual content... sigh
"Stop Innovating and Start Copying"
this is a good idea if you have the luxury of having great biz and media connections and money. I love going to networking events and copying people's ideas, but using my advantages to make them succeed.
Another take on 'copy' is to take an idea that worked in one market and do it another market with appropriate localizations applied. Say a successful product in US done right for India.
