This is definitely a help. I've created a LOT of crap, but I've had a good number of successes solely due to quantity. However, 80% of success really is showing up. You have to try, and not get discouraged. I was dirt poor as a kid, homeless twice before age 9, and I've had to rebuild my life twice as an adult. Simply pushing forward was a huge part of my success today.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. And once you succeed, KEEP TRYING.
Definitely the problem with the "The difference between X and Y" anecdotal structure is that often there are more than just one difference between things, even if they are somewhat alike.
