I can only speak for myself, but I would say your message could have been delivered much more optimally and made a significant net positive impact by doing so.
Rather than telling people “go start stuff up,” it could have said “go learn the skills and knowledge necessary to start stuff up, which are much less extensive than you think them to be, while also ensuring you build up the emotional and cognitive tools needed to deal with failure and updating your beliefs about your project.”
My thoughts, in other words, are not a rejection of the fundamental message, simply a desire for a more optimal delivery of the message.
