This post isn't meant to be a pity party on me by any means, I really mean this as a legitimate question. I'd say for every 50-75 times I "cast my line out", I get maybe 1 thing that I could legitimately deem a success. Obviously there's a lot of things I'm not doing right, and I'm working on that, but I know I'm not the only one out there with numbers like this. They aren't exactly great numbers, what keeps you guys trucking along through this kind of thing?

EDIT: I appreciate the comments guys. You've all been very insightful and helpful.
