It is not inherently bad, but it should not control your life. You should not beat yourself up for not fulfilling an unrealistic idealization of perfection. Not everyone can be like Tim Ferris. You take 500 people who did what he did many maybe two succeed and the rest are mediocre. Luck, whether it's the birth lottery or being at thr 'right place at the right time' (such as buying Bitcoin in 2009-2015), plays a bigger role than we may want to accept.
