The least prolific very successfull author in the world was perhaps Juan Rulfo. He only wrote 300 pages in his whole life and lived to be 68. It is really hard to explain how was he able to produce such master works.

Yes, because literally everyone has the same advice about all fields of endeavor.

		"1% of luck" is so meaningless. Did you have to be born to the right parents at the right time, or just avoid a car accident? And the ability or desire to work hard has some very soft dependencies.
