Sure, I think the main problem is the title of the post. "Forget Self Improvement" a pretty broad statement for how little you say about one part of self improvement. I suppose it served its part in creating controversy (and views), but I wish bloggers didn't resort to this.

It wasn't a stunt. It was a reaction. We're bombarded by means for becoming "better" people. Perhaps it's time to instead ask, "why?"

I agree with this.. "why?" is the right question to ask before choosing to do anything. But unless I'm mistaken, this isn't what your article is about.

It's one part of a longer discussion. (Again, I try to break things up a little.)
