Jackie — I tend to agree with you. Almost everything out there is noise. Very few things are really gems. As I read more, I realize that most of what is out there is parroting what has already been said somewhere else slightly differently.

On the other hand:

1. There is a lot of material out there that is good (not great). And that is beneficial for people to do if they’re not already reading.
2. Also, it is often good to here the same idea said slightly differently so it goes in deeper.
