I can't make claims of knowing anything about the publishing business, but I agree. I've known a few aspiring writers who basically gave up after one rejection letter from one publisher. I think they were dazzled by stories of authors who got really, really insanely lucky and "got discovered" or hit the jackpot unusually quickly without a lot of effort, or else they failed to notice that some authors got their start doing stuff like writing short stories for obscure magazines or freelancing for websites or taking commissions rather than writing what they really wanted to write or otherwise getting a foot in the door by doing unglamorous work.
