I've read all of his essays too, but I guess for me in particular this one strikes a chord because:
1) I just resigned from my day job this week to pursue startup ambitions and
2) I am definitely having "oh shit what am I doing" thoughts right now.
So given the timing for me, this kind of inspiration is very moving. As far as how it is written, I would argue that the phoned-in and impulsive nature is what makes this essay so elegant. It is clean and concise, stating the idea simply: dont give up. Anyway, this is all one mans opinion so you are certainly entitled to disagree.
